Itinerary

Meet at The Playford Hotel at 1.30pm, where you'll join a city sightseeing tour, including a visit to the David Roche Foundation which displays the many antiques and fine arts David collected over his lifetime.

Later this evening, enjoy a Welcome Dinner. Stay Four Nights: Adelaide, The Playford Hotel or similar (D)

Take in the sights of the Barossa Valley today. While enjoying all that this premier wine region has to offer, we stop in at Maggie Beer's Farm Shop. Continue to the historic Seppeltsfield Winery, with its avenue of stunning date palms, then visit the private garden of AL-RU Farm, a cattle property which features a stunning garden. (B/L)

This morning, visit a private garden in the Adelaide Hills before adjourning to Hans Heysen's home and studio to see the magnificent gums he was so famous for painting. While here, enjoy lunch at The Cedars.  Afterwards visit the drought-tolerant, Mediterranean-style Highcroft Garden.

Later, spend time in the quaint German-influenced village of Hahndorf and experience its vibrant main street, with its many cellar doors, sweetshops and cafes. (B/L/D)

Today, tour the manor house and gardens of Carrick Hill, before taking a look inside the Australian Museum of Gardening. The collection here spans almost 400 years.

Afterwards, visit Old Government House the summer residence of South Australia's early governors which sits in the heart of Belair National Park. The house is an excellent example of Victorian architecture and is set amongst magnificent gardens.

This afternoon, choose to either explore the Art Gallery of South Australia or take a relaxed tour of the Adelaide Botanic Garden with your Botanical Guide. (B/D)

Depart Adelaide for the Clare Valley. Along the way, visit the famous Haigh's Chocolate Factory, where you'll get to sample the exquisite delicacies.

Arrive at one of South Australia's best-known homesteads, Martindale Hall. Each room here is a living museum, which allows you to see how the upper class lived in the late 1800s. A charming garden and maze complete this historical image of affluence.
