I have been on a few paddleboarding sessions and, most recently, a kayaking trip with Enliven, and every experience has been 10 stars.
The knowledge and preparation involved with each trip is unmatched, and the scenery is always incredible. Elise will always make you feel safe and comfortable in every situation, giving you more confidence with each session to keep challenging yourself.
Amazing work, Elise!
Elise and her crew know their stuff and looked after all of us fabulously. We all had different abilities and skills but the guides ensured we all made the destinations. Well done Enliven Adventures and well done us!
However, the downsides are that you can barely see anything along the way as the trams are completely covered in advertising. Also, it is very confusing for tourists to know how to buy a ticket. Do you tap on and off or just on? When is the next tram coming? Being such a tourist attraction, it would be helpful to have clear information in a number of languages to assist.
Another downside is that the seats are very small and close together, with hardly any leg room or room for bags, etc. We went on the tram at various times and days, and it was always packed with people seated and standing.
Finally, be aware that there is a high chance drunks and drug users will also be on the tram. We had the pleasure of these individuals on a number of occasions. One was openly drinking alcohol at 1030am, swearing and generally being obnoxious.
If you manage to avoid all these issues and either sit right at the front or back to get a glimpse outside, you will probably have a pleasant trip.
No waves at Glenelg, but plenty of wide open beaches to walk and relax. Plenty of off spots and other shopping as well, without the crowds.
Seats are too small and too close together.
Computer voice from speakers too loud and constantly regurgitating pointless information, very annoying. Couldn't wait to disembark. Will take the bus next time I am in Adelaide.
Jetty Road is a construction zone
But don’t let that stop you from visiting Glenelg
Wonderful place, perfect t base yourself to visit many regions of South Australia
The whole city felt quite gentle if you are that persuasion.
I can't wait to book other adventures offered by enliven.
We made connections with new and old people of the community and had a ball riding some killer waves! 🤙
Would recommend this experience to any individual looking to try a connected outdoor adventure with like-minded women, even if you’ve done it before on your own. It is children and family friendly or for single souls wanting to get out of their comfort zone. This experience is for everyone, regardless of experience level!
Glenelg is a beachside town with a long, sandy swimming beach, a jetty, a ferris wheel, with bars and casual restaurants clustered around the main square (we liked Beach Burritos).
It really couldn’t have been easier to get the tram here. It runs regularly from the CBD to Glenelg beach and takes about 25 minutes.
We caught it from the stop next to Victoria Square. We didn’t even have to bother looking up a timetable - we only waited about 5 - 7 minutes.
We also didn't need to pre-buy a ticket or travel card - we simply tapped on with our Australian credit card and, unlike Sydney, you only need to tap on (no need to tap off).
We were travelling mid-week so we had a seat the whole way (although it's probably very different on weekends or school hols).
When you see the ferris wheel, you will know you’ve arrived but in any case, the tram stops here and everyone gets off.
It’s worth noting that the trams run until very late. The last tram back to the CBD is 12:30am.
If you're thinking of trying SUP, I highly recommend booking with Enliven and giving it a go!
are the spell-casters who can make this happen!
