LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE

THE BRITISH AND IRISH LIONS TOUR 2025

Please note that your international luggage allowance, maximum weight and individual item dimensions may be different to those permitted on board your allocated domestic flights in Australia. Where your international flight and domestic flights have been booked by us as part of your travel package, any additional cost incurred to carry your international weight allowance onboard domestic flights will be paid for by us, however you are recommended to pack cases that are aligned to the domestic flight luggage restrictions or use luggage that can be downsized.  Please note that if your booking reference starts AUFT and you are on a flight and ticket only package or starts AULE which means your international flight is not included, then this does not apply and you will be responsible for any additional luggage cost on domestic services.

We are unable to pre-book additional luggage in advance of travel, and this can only be requested on the day, at the airport. Please be aware additional checked in luggage may not travel on the same service as you and may follow on a later flight, subject to the loading capacity that an individual aircraft has. In this case the airline will be responsible for transferring your luggage to you at your hotel. Therefore, please ensure when travelling that you have luggage tags which clearly show your onward address.

Please note that seat selection, online check-in, seat upgrades and priority boarding are not available when you are travelling on group services. Unfortunately, your domestic flights cannot be cancelled, amended, or altered in any way.

Should you require airport assistance or have a specific dietary requirement or allergy please do let us know as soon as possible if you have not done so already by completing our health questionnaire: Medical Questionnaire | Lions Tour

Please be reminded that your passport must be shown each time you check in for your flight. If you have not yet applied for your Australian visa and are unsure as to which visa to apply for visit: Explore visa options

Day Trip to Adelaide

Wednesday 30 July - Departs 9:30 AM / Returns 17:00 PM

The Barossa is in South Australia, about 70km north-east of Adelaide, the state’s capital city.   Your trip will include a visit of the city centre, The State Library of South Australia and lunch at a local wine bar and kitchen. 

The State Library is the information heart of South Australia, located in the North Terrace Cultural Precinct.  You will have the opportunity to explore all three buildings: the award-winning contemporary Catherine Helen Spence Wing with its iconic glass foyer, the Mortlock Wing with its 19th century Victorian splendour, and the 1861 heritage listed Institute Building.

Sweeping stadium views, stylish bar and lounge, premium menu and extensive wine list.  Bespoke Wine Bar & Kitchen is one of Adelaide’s most impressive dining experiences.

Extending across level three of Oval Hotel and into the iconic Adelaide Oval, Bespoke’s unique setting makes a stunning backdrop lunch.

Executive Chef Daniel Simpson’s modern Australian menu brings bold flavours to life through fresh, seasonal produce.  Two drinks are included, and you may choose from house wine, beer or a soft drink.

After lunch you will be transferred to the North Terrace, Adelaide city where you can choose to spend your time either at Rundle Mall, The Art Gallery of South Australia or South Australian Museum.

 

PLEASE NOTE:  We have been advised that the carpet is being replaced in the Mortlock Chamber (section of the library) and we are now unable to conduct tours through this section during July so we will amend the Private tour of the State Library slightly and now include access to the basement (old & rare artifacts storage) which is an area of the library usually inaccessible to the public.
