The cost of this trip with viator - ie the price we paid was £141.66. If we had gone on our own via Uber, 2 people with a return journey would have been £79.95. We could even have caught the local bus and it would have been even cheaper.
The ticket we received said English Guide. There was no guide. The"driver" did not speak to anyone, he picked us up (there were 6 of us in total) and he drove us to Cleland. He had the sat nav on all the way there and the radio on full volume. No interaction at all.
On arrival at Cleland he said he'd never been there before and he was taking the opportunity to do some photography. He walked far too quickly from the car park to the entrance; there were 2 elderly ladies on the trip who we had to wait for and look out for as he left them behind. On arrival at Cleland entrance he paid for the 6 of us to go in with his credit card and left us and said see you later. It was later as well as he was 30 minutes late picking us up. Despite having a minibus full of bottles of water he did not share these around. There was also no animal feed included in the trip despite many of the reviews on the website saying this was included. The "driver" did not know we were supposed to be going to Mt Lofty so had to do it at the end of the day by which time it was going too dark and cloudy to see anything. Again he swiftly left the bus and headed for the entrance and we had to wait for the ladies ourselves. There was no interaction with us again - didn't point out any places of interest or pass on any information etc. We were totally ripped off and conned!


My only suggestion would be for better signage at the meeting/starting point.





That was an incredible experience, I highly recommend anyone who hasn't been there before should go to check it out. The Gemtree winery is our last stop. Frankly speaking, I'm disappointed as Ken said their wine are very unique. However, I couldn't taste anything special and felt being treated unfairly. My friends had the same feelings too. Also, Ken mentioned we would provide a snack but we didn’t and the other people did. It's a shame that we couldn't have a happy closure because of this all in all it's still a very good activity.







A rainy and hail day to start but it did not dampen anyone's enjoyment.
While the additional stops, walks and site seeing added to the experience. We had a very easy going group for the 3 days - 2 nights.
The 2 tour leaders (Shannon and Shannon) were excellent and fun to be with. Very knowledgeable and happy to accommodate a few extra requests for things to see.



Kane was very friendly and a helpful guide. The morning tea at Glenelg was great - good coffee!








Bit of advice for everyone looking to hold a Koala, be sure to reserve your tickets for the Koala Hold experience at Cleland as far in advance as possible. This will sell out just like it did the day I visited the park. You can still do the Koala Closeup that comes with the tour but I wish I knew ahead of time to buy my reservation as early as possible. Next time.






Highly recommended and great value.




Unfortunately after reaching the peak in around an hour it was cloudy so I couldn’t see more than a few metres in front of me
The walk down is obviously much easier and I managed to catch some beautiful views of Adelaide
The waterfall at the bottom is also quite beautiful
Probably wouldn’t recommend this if you’re unfit or don’t have a few hours to spare




Very scenic ride



My husband and I regrettably spent far too short a time in Adelaide, however our cycling tour with Matt from Adelaide up to Glenelg was seriously great value, so much fun and so informative. In a short time, we felt that we had good appreciation of the city which guaranteed that we would be returning for a longer visit.
Absolutely don’t hesitate – just book and enjoy a AAA rated experience.
