Adelaide would have to be Australia’s most under-rated city. It is compact enough to walk easily from one attraction to another, and is jam packed with art galleries, museums, stunning parks, ethnic restaurants, boutiques, bars, pubs and live-music, not to mention the festivals that the city is famous for.

I’ve put together a list of things to do in Adelaide and mapped them so you can explore the city region-by-region on foot.
