A brand new GPS system has been introduced to help travellers explore South Australia’s Fleurieu Way.
The first of its kind in Australia, it’s providing self-drive travellers with ‘virtual tour guides’ to help them discover the stunning 235 kms route. It is expected that this system will transform Australian self-drive holidays, providing travellers with an interactive experience that is both entertaining and fun.
Accompanied by a brochure, the GPS package plugs into a car’s cigarette lighter and can be hired from selected visitor information centres. The GPS system offers 20 great reasons to travel the Fleurieu Way, points out places of interest and provides insider tips from locals like Ian Johnson the Cockle Train driver (a steam train that runs along the beach front on the oldest steel-railed railway in Australia); Rebecca Wilson from Bremerton Wines (an award winning winery awarded the accolade of having “Australia’s Best Red”); and Adrian Cox from the horse-drawn tram to Granite Island which has been running for over 100 years.
Highlighted activities include antique-hunting in Strathalbyn, cruising to the mouth of the Murray River or the bird rich wilderness of Coorong National Park, riding the coastal Cockle Train and whale watching along the Encounter Bay coastline.
