Rent a car in Saint Vincent to explore a great south Australian city

The coastal town on the Saint Vincent Gulf in South Australia was named after the English queen Adelaide in 1836. Counting the greater urban area, Adelaide has a population of 1.1m, though only 17,500 live in the town center. Due to its many cultural efforts the town has gained the nickname Festival City. The biggest event is the bi-annual Adelaide Festival of the Arts, attracting up to one million visitors. Be an independent traveler thanks to your rental car.

The many attractions in the North Terrace

Adelaide’s Old Town is encircled by a green strip that has replaced the old town fortifications. The town’s history and more is told in the South Australian Museum in the North Terrace district north of downtown Adelaide. Numerous exhibitions are spread over six floors, among them the Aboriginal Cultures Gallery, a large selection of historical and cultural artefacts from Australia’s aboriginal population, and an exhibition on Ancient Egypt. Get your rental car to experience memorable vacation.

Apart from the South Australian Museum you will find plenty other cultural centers in North Terrace. One of the highest buildings in town is home to the Art Gallery of South Australia that is proud of a precious collection of art. The permanent exhibition still leaves room for rotating exhibitions of varying Australian and international artists, so check the current program.

For further insight into the history of this region, pay a visit to the Migration Museum. This place gives you a good idea of the exciting mix of cultures and biographies you will encounter in South Australia. The permanent exhibition includes a journey through the history of immigration and the immigrants that have been coming to the continent for decades. Drive with your rental car and discover the landscape.

A cultural highlight in North Terrace is the Adelaide Festival Centre, the place to go for theater, music and dance performances. The program is exciting and fresh, and between visual arts and cabarets it should be easy for anyone to find the right show for a great night out. With your car rental, enjoy your freedom.

Be enchanted by the view while driving your rental car.

Sip some of Australia's amazing wines

If you need a break from the cultural adventures of North Terrace, take a day trip to Barossa Valley. This valley was influenced by Swiss, Austrian, and German immigrants and has developed into one of the best wine-growing regions of Australia. About 60% of the total Australian wine production comes from the area and can be sampled on 30 vineyards. This is complemented by the excellent restaurants in the region. The valley surrounding the town of Nuriootpa is located roughly 45 miles to the north east and is easy of Adelaide, a comfortable one hour ride on the A20 highway.
