Is Kangaroo Island realistic as a day trip during five days based in Glenelg?
We will mostly travel without a car but could hire one for part of the stay.
How would you divide six Adelaide days between the city, coast and wine country?
We are interested in Glenelg, Hahndorf and McLaren Vale without changing hotels too often.

Which Adelaide area is good for a relaxed breakfast before sightseeing?
I want a breakfast stop that fits the day's route and do not want to rely on an old award list of cafes.
Where is a practical place to stay for tennis at Adelaide's city venues?

Can we pick cherries or blueberries on a day trip from Adelaide in early December?
