A really fun, informative, all round interesting experience. We loved it.
We picked up a brochure from an Adelaide Hotel. We liked the look of the variety of things to do on our day trip. We didn't want just a winery. We got lucky, Liz was doing the tour we wanted the next day. There was only 4 others on the mini bus. Liz was excellent. As a local, she knew the old and more current things about the Adelaide Hills. She explained the area well, and obviously loved her area. We didn't feel rushed. We visited "tourist" things, but it was exactly what we wanted.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. I’m so pleased the Adelaide Hills tour was exactly what you were looking for, especially with the mix of sightseeing, local stops and beautiful places to explore beyond just wineries. It was a pleasure sharing the region with you, and I’m glad you enjoyed the relaxed pace and small-group feel of the day. The Adelaide Hills is a part of South Australia I truly love, so it means a lot to hear that came through during the tour. Thank you again for choosing Discover Adelaide Tours.

Everything we hoped for and more!
Liz was an AMAZING tour guide! She went above and beyond to make sure our day was everything we hoped it would be, and even more! We had booked her small group tour for a Sunday, but decided to move the booking to Monday instead. Doing so, we actually lucked out with a PRIVATE tour just our family of three), as no one else had booked for the day! Liz personalized our tour to ensure we had a fabulous experience at Cleland Wildlife Park feeding the kangaroos and wallabies, petting Edmond the koala, getting some great photos and sharing her expertise on the locale and animals! Liz asked us about the kinds of wine we enjoy, and then took us to a fabulous vineyard where the OWNER gave us a private tasting of her excellent wines! We also enjoyed our walkabout in Hahndorf, where we enjoyed treats at a local bakery and ate a delicious German lunch at a local restaurant. After that, Liz dazzled us with a trip to Melba’s Chocolate Factory where she gave us a tour and a tasting of several of the delicacies they make there! We enjoyed all the information and trivia Liz shared with us, as well as learning the rich history of the areas we went past on our travels. It was a marvelous experience - we highly recommend Liz and Discover Adelaide Tours!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this beautiful review! I really enjoyed the day with your family too. It brought me so much joy seeing how much fun you were having, especially at Cleland with the kangaroos, wallabies and Edmond the koala. I’m so glad we could personalise the day for you and include a winery with your tastes in mind. It was such a pleasure showing you the Adelaide Hills, and I would absolutely love to show you more of South Australia if you are ever back this way again!

Adelaide Hills tour
Excellent tour. Liz let us take plenty of time taking photos and feeding wallabies and kangaroos. Handdorf is a lovely town to visit, very interesting. The wine tasting in a beautiful setting was a lovely end to the tour as well as the scenic drive through the hills. Highly recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review. I’m so glad you enjoyed the relaxed pace of the day and had plenty of time to capture those special moments with the kangaroos and wallabies. Hahndorf is always a favourite, and it’s great to hear you loved finishing with wine tasting in the Adelaide Hills. It was a pleasure having you along, and I really appreciate the recommendation.

A good day out from Adelaide
A busy and interesting day, our host Liz was very knowledgable, engaging and easy company. The wildlife park and wine tasting at Nepenthe were probably the highlights and Hahndorf made a great lunch stop Sadly mount lofty wasn’t playing ball - we will have to check the views next visit
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review of our Adelaide Hills tour. I’m really glad you enjoyed the day, especially Cleland, Nepenthe and our stop in Hahndorf. It’s a great mix of experiences. Mount Lofty doesn’t always cooperate, so that just gives you a good reason to come back and see those views next time!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Adelaide.
How much does Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Adelaide usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Adelaide is not rushed.
Is Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Adelaide, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Adelaide can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Adelaide and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Adelaide Hills Cleland and Hahndorf Small Group Premium Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Adelaide within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Adelaide?
+
On Outty we rank every Adelaide experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate, Discover Barossa: 4 Wine Tastings, Gourmet Lunch, and Hidden Gems, Adelaide Highlights, Hahndorf & McLaren Vale Wine Tasting and Sightseeing Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Adelaide?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Adelaide?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
