Summary

Your morning begins with a pickup from your Adelaide hotel. Hop aboard your tour vehicle, meet your guide, and drive out of the city to Waterfall Gully—the trailhead of one of Adelaide’s most popular hikes. Along the way, your guide gives a brief trail orientation. Upon arrival, set off at your own pace following the 2.5-mile (3.9-kilometer) trail past waterfalls, streams, and panoramic views from gully ridges. Keep an eye out for koalas dozing in gum trees and grazing kangaroos. Snap photos of panoramic views of Adelaide from the summit of Mt. Lofty. On a clear day, Glenelg, Port Adelaide, and Kangaroo Island are visible. You have time to snag coffee or a snack at the Summit Café before heading back down to Waterfall Gully. Your tour concludes when your driver drops you off at your hotel in Adelaide.
