Getting to Port Adelaide
Port Adelaide is approximately 15kms from Adelaide city centre.
Unless you are driving yourself – bus or train services are convenient and recommended. Bus and train services are run by Adelaide Metro. For fares etc please refer to my ‘Bus, Tram, Train – Tickets and Routes’ review. For maps and timetables http://www.adelaidemetro.com.au/Timetables-Maps.
Bus – Route number 150 is best from North Terrace in Adelaide City via Port Road. There is a stop adjacent to the tourist office in Port Adelaide – alight here. The trip takes around 30 minutes and services are around every 15 minutes during the day (less later in the evening).
Train – From Adelaide Railway Station on North Terrace take the Out Harbour Line and alight at Port Adelaide Station. Train trip around 20 minutes (runs every 30 minutes – less in later evening) but note that from the train station to the tourist office is a further 10 minutes walk. Trains are exactly as pictured in the attached picture – small two carriage sets.
Taxi (one way) from Adelaide – North Terrace – $A30-$A40 – Peak Rates Mon – Friday (06:00 – 18:59) or $A35-$A45 Off Peak Rates (19:00 – 05:59 + Saturday & Sunday). Approximately 20 minutes. Even with 4-5 people the train or bus will be cheaper if perhaps less convenient.
