Australian Map Gifts Adelaide Hills Wine Region Map Apron
If you've enjoyed holidays together in the Adelaide Hills or your mum is obsessed with wine from the region, why not give her a cute cotton apron depicting the region's famous wineries and attractions? It's a perfect way to protect her outfit while she bakes - or makes - goodies (especially if she's prone to wiping her hands on her clothes) and will bring back fun memories of her visit. $30
Cleland Wildlife Park Guided Tour
A gift that gets you out of the city and into nature. Book an hour-long guided tour where you'll meet kangaroos, cuddle a koala or two, walk through the bird aviaries, while you grab a light lunch and enjoy a refreshing cup of coffee or wine at their Barking Gecko Cafe. It's a leisurely walk experience, all in the heart of the Adelaide Hills. Great for your Mum who loves wildlife, kids, or your bestie who needs a nature break. From $180 per hour (plus entry fee).
Udder Delights Cheese-Making Class
For your Mum who cooks because it’s fun or just loves to try something different, get them into this hands-on cheese-making class. She'll learn to make feta (and camembert), taste cheeses with fresh-baked ciabatta and a glass of local wine or beer. By the end, she leaves with skills, cheese recipes and a story to tell. And you’ll get the credit for such a thoughtful voucher. Classes are usually held on Saturday between 9.30am and 1pm, with occasional Friday and Sunday sessions. $190 per person.
