From Adelaide Hills and Hahndorf German Village Tour

Thank you Sue, I am so pleased you enjoyed your day and it was a great day for me too. I truly hope you will get an opportunity to return to SA and visit Kangaroo Island and Barossa Valley as you had hoped to do this time. When you do, please get in touch to see how we can help plan those trips for you. ?

Day Out with George

My son (aged 13) and I toured Adelaide Hills/Hahndorf in late-June. As it turned out, we were the only guests that day, so our host-guide-driver George asked if he could accommodate any specific interests we might have, that were not in the itinerary. “Nature parks, fruit farms, flower nurseries!” George obliged! As it was winter, primary production activities were notably less buzzy. But George made the best of the situation. We made pit-stops at a (unattended) farm produce stall, a flower nursery, the quaint Old Apple Shed and Mount Lofty Botanic Garden. En route, we spotted koalas and kangaroos in the wild, and even made a surprise detour to George’s parents’ estate where he let my son pick an apple from a tree. Up until then, we hadn’t seen apples on a tree, let alone pick one! Finally, a late-lunch of cheeseboard and wine at Udder Delights in Hahndorf rounded off our gently-paced tour. I can vouch that that day, father and son bonded.

Great day in Adelaide

Our driver was very knowledgeable and also asked what we would like to do and what kind of drink we preferred so that he could take us to such winery that catered for us. The chocolate experience was heavenly. If you like chocolate this is a must. Having a salted chocolate cappuccino to suit a chocolate or two was such a tantalising mouth sensation. It was easy to communicate with the driver, allowing us to do things along the way like visiting the strawberry farm. Hahndorf had great foodie places. I'd really recommend Udder Delights if you enjoy a delicious cheese or two. We had the pleasure of making up our cheese board with a glass of wine. Nice way to end the day.
