From rolling vineyards and world-class cellar doors to pristine coastlines and untamed wilderness, this itinerary pairs two of South Australia’s biggest drawcards: the legendary Barossa Valley and wildlife-rich Kangaroo Island. It’s an easy journey that combines indulgent food and wine with unforgettable nature experiences, all within a short flight or scenic drive from Adelaide.

This is just one way to explore the region. If you’re after a more off-grid outback adventure, take a look at our alternative week in South Australia that explores the Flinders Ranges and Murray River.
