Steamranger Railway, Adelaide Hills and Hahndorf Day Tour

Enjoy a late start to your Sunday with our Steamranger Heritage Railway, Adelaide Hills and Hahndorf tour with a 10.00 am departure from the City of Adelaide.  One of our driver guides will  show you around the Adelaide Hills and Mount Lofty Ranges, through the quaint villages and picturesque scenery before arriving in the oldest German settlement in Australia, Hahndorf. 

Hahndorf is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Australia and is a must visit for all who come to Adelaide. You will enjoy the time to explore the village at your own pace. Mount Barker is a neighbouring township and the start point for the iconic Steamranger Heritage Railway which travels out of the Adelaide Hills, down to the South Coast of the Fluerieu Peninsula to Victor Harbor.

Board the Highlander Train for the return journey through the gumtrees and farming land to the heritage town of Strathalbyn.  If you enjoy exploring antique and collectable stores, doing a bit of retail therapy or sitting back with a drink on the banks of a river, this is the town for you.
