9AM PICK-UP AT AYERS HOUSE Meet your guide and fellow hikers at this calm and convenient spot in the heart of the city, featuring a beautiful garden, away from city traffic. TIPS ON HOW TO GET TO AYERS HOUSE It’s about a 15 min walk from Adelaide Railway Station. If you prefer to save your steps for the hike, take the free tram (BTANIC service toward BOTANIC GARDENS) from the station and alight at the BOTANIC GARDENS TRAM STOP (end of the tram line). A BIT OF HISTORY ON AYERS HOUSE Built in 1846 as a modest home, it was purchased in 1855 by Sir Henry Ayers, who transformed it into a grand bluestone mansion. Today, it is recognised as a State Heritage Place. PLEASE NOTE This is only your pick-up point, the tour does NOT include a visit inside.
Morialta Conservation Park
As we begin to hike through the Australian native bush, keep your eyes peeled for wildlife surprises as you learn about them from your guide! Spot koalas chilling in the treetops, and if we’re lucky, we might catch a glimpse of a kangaroo bounding past or an echidna waddling along. The park’s creeks and rock pools are buzzing with life: frogs, geckos, skinks, and even tiny dragons call this place home. And let’s not forget the feathered locals: from the vibrant rainbow lorikeets to the cheeky kookaburras, the air is alive with their calls. Take in the dramatic gorges and sheer rock faces light up by the morning light, as well as the views of Adelaide in the distance from lookout points. In season, you'll see Morialta's First, Second and Third Falls, all of which cascade over impressive quartzite cliffs. Take time to listen to the softly cascading water in this picture-perfect setting along Fourth Creek.

5.00Did this tour as a solo traveler. The pick-up from the city was smooth. On the trail, the pace was just right, and there were plenty of chances to take photos and soak it all in. Marco made everything easy and explained things in a clear, friendly way we spotted several fairywrens 2 kookaburra and 1 echidna!*
Great Experience!

5.00Marco is a very welcoming and knowledgeable guide. Plenty of snacks and water was provided for the whole hike. The small group size was perfect for interaction to learn more about each other. Shown hidden gems that we wouldn’t have known otherwise. The hike itself is moderate and described exactly how it is in the booking. If I had more time in Adelaide i would book the Deep Creek hike tour as well because I loved this one! Thanks Marco!

5.00Such a pleasant way to spend a half day. The track was manageable and the views were lovely from start to finish. Our guide shared lots of helpful info about the plants, animals, and the park itself. It felt like walking with a friend who knows the area well. Would happily do it again. Recommended!

5.00Really enjoyed this hike. It covered a good mix of lookout points and quieter spots along the trail. The guide was down to earth, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel comfortable. It was a great balance of walking, talking, and taking photos. I left feeling like I’d learned something new without it being too heavy.
An absolute gem! The best way to see the real Australian bush

5.00I recently joined this hiking tour to Morialta Conservation Park, and it was easily one of the highlights of Adelaide. If you want to escape the city and see some incredible nature, this is the tour to book. The Experience: We arrived at the park ready to go, and the scenery did not disappoint. The views of the deep gorges and striking rock formations were spectacular. We were lucky enough to visit when the waterfalls were flowing, which made for some stunning photos! The Wildlife: This is a true paradise for nature lovers. I was hoping to see some local wildlife, and the park delivered. We spotted koalas (my personal favorite!), kangaroos, and a huge variety of colorful birds. The guide was fantastic at pointing them out and sharing stories about the local flora and fauna that I never would have known on my own. The Atmosphere: What I really appreciated was the small group size. Being capped at just 6 hikers made the experience feel very personal and unhurried—it felt more like hiking with friends than a commercial tour. It was a memorable adventure from start to finish. Hot Tip: I had such a great time that I’m already looking into their other offering, the "Deep Creek Hike: Trails and Tales with a Foreign Flair." If it’s anything like this one, I’m sure it’s amazing. Highly recommended! Do yourself a favor and book this.
An amazing experience in the Morialta Conservation Park!

5.00At first, I was unsure to book this hike because there were no ratings or reviews yet, but this guided hike exceeded my expectations. Marco and Barbara are very friendly and knowledgable guides who showed me the beautiful Morialta Falls, as well as the unique flora of South Australia. We even had the chance to see two koalas! The hike was also very well organised: they provided snacks during the hike and arranged for transportation by car from downtown Adelaide to the hike's starting point. I highly recommend this guided hike!
