It’s time for your trip to Adelaide! From the moment you touch down at Adelaide Airport, we bet you’ll want to hit the road as soon as possible. With a rental car from Hertz Adelaide Airport that’ll definitely be possible!
There is so much to do in this South Australian city. Thankfully, the Adelaide Airport is just a 25-minute drive from the city centre, which means you’ll be exploring the Festival City in no time at all. Let’s not forget that Adelaide is a gateway to some beautiful South Australian destinations, with Barossa, Glenelg, and the Fleurieu Peninsula all calling this state their home.
Adelaide is known by many names. It’s the Festival City, the City of Churches and the City of Parks. This means that you’ll have plenty to keep you occupied even if you never leave the Adelaide borders. But, if one thing is for sure, your exploration will be a whole lot easier with a Hertz rental car.
Attend an Event with Hertz
The city of Adelaide has experienced one of the greatest revivals in urban culture in recent years, going from a fairly introverted sister to some of Australia’s bigger cities, to becoming a sought-after destination for fun and great-tasting food all year round. Suffice it to say, there’s always something going on at whatever time of the year you visit.
Many head here during the summer months to enjoy the Adelaide Fringe Festival. It’s the world’s second-largest arts festival, with more than 600,000 attendees heading to the city to experience the local and international artists and performances. There's also the WOMADelaide in autumn, which is a multicultural four-day festival of world music, art and dance. In spring, enjoy the Adelaide Film Festival, which is an international film festival enjoyed by thousands each year.
Explore The City with Hertz
Even if you miss the date for one of the big festivals here, there’s always plenty to do and see any time of the year.
There’s the Adelaide Botanic Gardens, which is home to 50 hectares of both native and foreign plants. Make sure to check out the beautiful architecture while you’re here, and perhaps stop for a picnic if the weather is good.
For sports lovers, make sure to go to the Adelaide Oval. This famed stadium is one of Australia’s finest, and you can experience it all with a tour during your stay.
Then there is the Art Gallery of South Australia, which is home to many colonial Australian and British pieces and features close to 40,000 works of art within its collection. It’s a great way to spend an afternoon out of the sunshine.
Explore South Australia’s Countryside with Hertz
Adelaide is the gateway to many beautiful countryside spots. Even if you just fancy a day trip, there is plenty to discover just a short drive away from the main CBD.
Why not head to the Fleurieu Peninsula? It’s one of the most beautiful stretches of rugged coastline in Australia. Enjoy the calm, pristine blue waters as a welcome break from the hot Adelaide summer days. It'll be well worth the 45-minute drive to get here from the city centre.
Adelaide is the perfect city to enjoy any time of the year. And the best way to do it is with a hire car from Hertz Adelaide Airport.
