We had a fabulous experience at PPP for my dear friend Amy's Hens Day! Right from the initial enquiry Damian was fantastic to deal with, always happy to help and answer any question, he really went out of his way to make the day as smooth and as easy as possible. The food was delicious (the taco pizza is a game changer), there was a great selection of wine and ciders, and being able to have the venue exclusively reserved for us was perfect. We thank Damian and the whole team at PPP for making the day what it was, we will definitely be back!

Had an amazing time at the park. Walking through a field of Kangaroos and stopping to feed them, watching Koala's, Dingo's and Pelican's feed and a Tasmanian Devil to top it off. Enjoyed an afternoon at Adelaide Zoo during our stay but this was better. Only disappointment was the limited range of food available at the cafe. Easy spend 3 to 4 hours at the venue so would be good to have more food options.

Easy to get to the Zoo when staying in Adelaide, short walk from the city. Had an great time at the Zoo, saw the lions and tigers feeding time. The animal enclosures are well-designed, so even when there is a large crowd everyone gets a chance to see the animals.

A must-see in the city of Adelaide not only because it holds one of Australia's finest art collections, but also because it offers a variety of activities for all ages.

Such a great variety in styles of art! Free entry and helpful staff that will teach you about the art you are seeing. We visited the student showcase and there were some great pieces to vote on. We spent 1.5 hours enjoying the facility but you can definitely spend longer.

If you work your way down North Terrace, east you will come to the Adelaide Botanic Gardens. this is a quiet and beautiful oasis in the city and borders on botanic Park and the Zoo. It makes for a great day out for families all within about a 5 minute walk of the city center. It houses an original Victorian glass house with a famous Amazon lily, big lawned areas, water lily ponds and lovely mature trees dating from the 1850's ( Adelaide was settled by private charter in 1836). The botanic gardens then exit onto botanic park at the northern boundary. Botanic park is a large grassed park with lovely big shade trees and is popular with locals for picnics. A short walk across the park and you can visit the very good Adelaide Zoo to see lots of native animals as well as all the usual suspect. A great day for a family if visiting Adelaide.

This free museum has it all. It has two sections dedicated to aboriginals dating from early man, to colonial times, to contemporary artifacts. It has a huge display of Pacific islands history to include artifacts for daily living, hunting and fishing, war, and inter island transportation. There were huge sections dedicated to gemological history and Antarctic exploration. A must see in Adelaide.
