Alice Springs to Adelaide Bus
Travel on a Greyhound bus from Alice Springs to Adelaide for your chance to see the wonders of the Australian outback in air-conditioned comfort.
When you close your eyes and picture the outback, there’s a good chance you picture the area surrounding Alice Springs. From the majesty of Uluru and Kings Canyon, to the stunning view of the sunset over the West Macdonnell Ranges, and the powerful experience of walking through the Valley of the Winds at Kata Tjuta, Alice Springs is a bucket list destination for both local and international travellers.
But there’s plenty to see and do in Adelaide, as well, and it’s well worth the trip to get there. Often referred to as the City of Churches, Adelaide has become the City of Festivals, with some of Australia’s biggest cultural events – including Adelaide Festival, WOMADelaide and Adelaide Fringe – taking place there in February and March.
Even if you visit outside festival season, your Adelaide itinerary will be busy. You can indulge in Adelaide’s thriving foodie scene and hidden laneway bars; go wine-tasting in the Barossa Valley; visit the Adelaide Cricket Oval; and take our Kangaroo Island Tour to spot sea lions, penguins, fur seals, and, of course, kangaroos.
On your bus trip from Alice Springs to Adelaide, you’ll pass through some of Australia’s most fascinating, off-the-beaten-path locations, from picturesque Port Augusta – the Crossroads of Australia – to the surreal underground town of Coober Pedy.
