[AU; 2022] Adelaide - 1 Day Self Drive Itinerary

Adelaide has a small city so if you would like to see more about the place, definitely need to drive out to the suburbs! Here is a self-drive itinerary that you can go for a day trip! 

Morning: Have a cup of coffee at Glenelg Beach

If you cannot drive - there is a tram service from the city!

Roam around the place and you will find interesting things around the corner!

I settled down for a cup of hot chocolate with a nice view:

Veloce Paninoteca Glenelg

Marina pier, shop 23/9 Holdfast Promenade, Glenelg SA 5045, Australia

Noon: Lunch at Hahndorf

Hahndorf is Australia's oldest surviving German settlement - it is so German and I thought I'm back there!

There are plenty of churches over there and they are all so pretty!

There is a famous German eatery over here that even have live music!

35 Mount Barker Rd, Hahndorf SA 5245, Australia

But it was full of people that they do not have empty tables - suggest to go earlier and get a seat.

So we ended up in another smaller cafe which has a very warm vibe, which suits me more!

102 Mount Barker Rd, Hahndorf SA 5245, Australia

The food was awesome, it really brings me back to those days at Frankfurt & Heidelberg!

Afternoon: Winery & Mount Lofty

While driving toward Mount Lofty, we stopped by a winery to just enjoy the view.

136 Jones Rd, Balhannah SA 5242, Australia

Such a pretty place - if it allows picnic will be fun!

The route to Mt Lofty was amazing, lots of things to see and go awww about (little animals roaming about). If you're lucky, maybe a koala too. But Mt Lofty was awesome too, you can practically see the whole Adelaide City over there!

Mount Lofty Summit

Mount Lofty Summit Rd, Crafers SA 5152, Australia

Of course a mandatory touristy spot!

Evening: Brighton Jetty

134B Esplanade, Brighton SA 5048, Australia

One of the perfect place in Adelaide to watch sunset - and another mandatory tourist photo with the sunset at the background over at the arch.

This marks the end of my one day self-drive trip around Adelaide suburb - a big kudos to my driver behind a scenes planning out this day trip for me!
