Specialties

The Adelaide Visitor Information Centre is located in the heart of Adelaide’s shopping precinct, in James Place just off Rundle Mall, and offers assistance to local, interstate and overseas visitors. The centre is staffed by knowledgeable, enthusiastic volunteers who can assist you with directions, brochures, maps, event guides and journey planning that will help you make the most of your time in Adelaide and South Australia. Also available from the centre is a free 30 — 45 minute orientation walk called First Steps in Adelaide. This orientation walk takes you around Rundle Mall and the nearby precinct to introduce new visitors to the city and highlight major attractions, public transport and current events. The walk departs every weekday (excluding public holidays) at 9.30am, bookings are not required.

Free short term wheelchair and pusher hire is available.

The centre is open every day except Good Friday and Christmas Day and is open 11am to 3pm on public holidays.

History

Established in 2002.

Formerly the Citizens Advice Bureau and then the Rundle Mall Visitor Information Centre. The name changed in 2010 to the Adelaide Visitor Information Centre to more accurately reflect the scope of the service as an accredited capital city visitor information centre.

What stands out for me is the customer service you receive from the volunteers that run the centre. With an obvious passion for assisting you combined with great knowledge of the city and surrounds, it was lovely to chat with them.
The centre has a myriad of brochures not just about Adelaide, but on the state as well, and are more than happy to talk to you about what is going on around town. There are also 2 great computers that you can use which have free internet!

Located just outside Myer on the mall, it’s pretty tiny which can be severely annoying when you do need information because you can’t pack too many people in there.
The people working behind the desk were lovely and helpful until I asked to put some flyers there, this was when I was doing some hospitality promotional work.
There are so many leaflets that I thought, hey, whats a couple more? but no.
other than thats, a stack of information available thats mainly for tourists, but it’s great to get guides for tours, trails and shows, especially when the the Adelaide Fringe Festival hits town.
Go get a free map.

This must be the smallest visitor centre ever and is therefore easy to miss, even though it’s right in the middle of Adelaide’s busiest shopping street. When I went in there, there were probably about 10 other people inside and it felt very crowded, so be prepared to wait if you go during the peak tourist season.
I must say that it stocks quite a fair bit of information though, considering its small size. You can get brochures about South Australia’s main regions (e.g. Adelaide Hills, Fleurieu Peninsula, Barossa Valley) and Adelaide’s main attractions, such as the zoo, Cleland, museums or theatre guides.
If you’re visiting Adelaide for the first time it’s definitely worth picking up some information here.
