Transfer from Adelaide Airport to Rundle Mall
The journey follows Sir Donald Bradman Drive, the main road linking the airport with the city. Along the airport's northern border you pass Tapleys Hill Road, then cross Marion Road, Cowandilla, Hilton and South Road before entering the Adelaide Park Lands. The Lie of the Land public art installation sits on both sides of the road, designed as a gateway statement for the city. Near the end of the route, West Terrace Cemetery lies beside West Terrace, and the road reaches Grote Street.
Your driver meets you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of the terminal where your flight lands, holding a name sign, and tracks your flight in real time. Allow 12 to 18 minutes in normal traffic, with extra time for peak periods and the walk from the baggage hall to the car. Rundle Mall is a pedestrian precinct, so ask to be dropped near Gawler Place, one of the official taxi ranks, rather than inside the mall.
A taxi costs roughly A$22 on the meter for this trip, plus the A$4.50 T1 rank fee, and rates rise at night and on weekends. The JetBus J1 and J2 reach Rundle Mall in 20 to 25 minutes, running every 15 to 30 minutes from 5:00 am to 11:30 pm, but you carry bags between stops and wait for each service. A pre-booked transfer gives you a fixed price, a meet-and-greet at arrivals and a driver who adjusts to your arrival time.
