Our journey begins in the vibrant city of Adelaide. From there, we'll head north to Port Augusta, a gateway to the stunning landscapes of South Australia. Leaving Port Augusta, we'll travel to the unique underground town of Coober Pedy. This opal-mining town is unlike any other, known for its fascinating underground homes and vibrant opal industry.
