1. National Railway Museum Port Adelaide
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 250 reviews
Explore the history of Australian Railways in this engaging museum. You will encounter numerous displays of various railway artifacts and see steam and diesel trains at work.
Reviewed By David S - Melbourne, Australia
We heard about this place a couple of years ago when touring the Peterborough railway museum. Displays are spread over two large sheds and comprise South Australian and Commonwealth Railways engines and carriages. Lots of other displays including a large model railway and theatrette showing a short film about building the railway across the Nullabor. Sadly could not climb into the many old steam engines there but could wander trough many of the carriages including the historic Tea and Sugar train. Only a short walk from the station or bus stop if travelling on public parking from Adelaide and good size car park.

Reviewed By Margaret M - Melbourne, Australia
Thoroughly enjoyed our guided tour with Flick from Truely Tribal. She is so knowledgable and respectful of the environment and our indigenous history and culture. The trip is very reasonably priced and catered well for us vegetarians. I especially liked Flick's lack of wastage with food and supply of fresh fruit rather than junk food. There was ample opportunity for us to get our own treats such as real coffee, pies (SA definitely has the best and in the smallest of towns) and other indulgences if we wanted. The steam train trip was a lot of fun. Arkaroola and Wilpena Pound are even better than imagined.

We're thrilled to have the new David Jones open too, and hope that it makes your experience in the centre a better one. We hope to see you here again soon! Westfield WL

6. Grange Jetty

Reviewed By MarkNob - Australia
Grange is generally a nice seaside area and like many other locations along the Adelaide foreshore, it has a jetty. It really is nothing spectacular and there are many other places along the coastline which I'd rather see but its OK for a casual stroll. First sunny weekend today after a long winter, so heaps of people about the place.
7. Royal Adelaide Golf Club
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 16 reviews
Championship 18-hole golf course at par 73 offers a unique combination of sand dunes and fir trees on Australia's southern coast.
Reviewed By Clubsecretary - Berkeley, California
About 20 minutes from Central Adelaide with a very welcoming Staff. While the course appears to be on relatively flat ground, the design takes advantage of the undulations and small hills to present a challenging shots and interesting design. The tram line runs through the middle of the course but no longer stops there. The course has a driving range and practice area. Enjoy lunch and drinks on the patio overlooking the 18th green.
8. South Australian Maritime Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 198 reviews
The Maritime Museum sits in South Australia's first heritage precinct. It presents Exhibitions over three floors of an 1850s bond store, the South Neptune Lighthouse and the steam tug Yelta. The Museum is fresh and interactive and makes history relevant to a popular audience.
Reviewed By Sabrinaschmid - Brisbane, Australia
We bought our tickets with a nice man at the lighthouse and got to climb that first. Amazing view from it.
Then we went over to the museum and the guy at reception was super nice and helpful and explained everything to us.
We then walked around and saw the exhibition of an artist, a real ship, real ship artifacts and also an exhibit about dolphins and whales.
Overall totally worth it and can be done in an hour but will take 2-4 hours if your read everything and also use all the interactive displays.

Thanks Kevin
