Adelaide exists contentedly as a cultured, diverse, and attractive city with a laid-back center, leafy residential districts, and an underlying cosmopolitan atmosphere.Adelaide Oval and South Australian Museum are good opportunities to explore the local culture.

Change things up with these side-trips from Adelaide: Semaphore Beach (in Semaphore), Langmeil Winery (in Tanunda) and Murray Street Vineyards (in Greenock). There's still lots to do: take a stroll through Rundle Mall, meet the residents at Adelaide Zoo, kick back and relax at Seacliff Beach, and identify plant and animal life at Cleland Wildlife Park.
