Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Small gallery showcasing Indigenous artwork. Nice gift shop and cafe. Gallery is quite small but nicely set out. At end of Grenfell Street.

    Well worth the visit, spent an hour wandering and reading - no photos, for me a book with all the information would be great as I personally like to re-look at things later.

    All about how plants and the economy interact. Very interesting seeing the categories in which various fruit belong, and some were quite surprising. Free to enter as well.

    I booked a visit to the Adelaide Holocaust Museum. Andrew Steiner, a Holocaust survivor, was one of the founders of the museum. He invited me to watch a presentation he was giving to a school group. I found it very interesting and it was also very nice to speak to this 90-year-old artist. You can see him at the far right of the photo I attached. I believe very strongly that we must educate people about the Holocaust so that something like it never happens again. The museum does a good job of presenting the story of the Holocaust and includes the stories of the Holocaust survivors who founded the museum. That adds a personal touch to the exhibits.

    One of those hidden gems that are so worth visiting. Only open on Tuesdays but well worth the trouble

    Today we were thrilled to visit the large museum collection of Australian exploration.
    In particular Stuart’s expeditions and the Telegraph line history.
    Excellent personal items and records.
    Actually so fine it should be on permanent museum display for more of the public.
    The Lodge too is most interesting and about to have some structural alterations.

    I was given a guided tour of the Museum, which tells the story of the work of St John Ambulance in South Australia.

    I was hoping to see the architectural drawings of the heritage buildings in Adelaide, but only a few drawings of private residents were displayed. A kind staff told me that specific materials could be brought out to you, if you had made an appointment.
    There was a small cubicle with two desks. Between the desks there was a bookshelf filled with many books about Australian buildings. I enjoyed looking through the old photos of Adelaide, that were taken between mid-1800s and early 1900s. I could recognise many of the buildings, as they have been heritage-listed and well preserved.
