Glenelg is only 5 Kms from Airport & a better alternative to staying in the CBD.

Be aware that there is no information available at the Glenelg Tram stop (not even a map of the route) to help first-time or any visitor to the area. Adelaide Metro needs to correct that - remove the cheap advertisement screens and replace them with some helpful information about the tram service. We were lucky that an off-duty driver took us on board a tram ready to depart to help us decide if that particular tram went near the part of Adelaide city we needed to go to in order to catch a bus back to our accommodation.

We always take the tram to Glenelg every time we visit, just to see what has happened since the last time we were there.
