Driving from Melbourne to Adelaide: What’s it like? I’m weighing the options of flying in and renting a car versus making the drive myself. The last time I embarked on a journey over five hours long, I ended up needing medical attention for a migraine. However, from what I see on the maps, it appears there’s a lot of scenic country driving involved. What do you think?

The drive from Melbourne to Adelaide is definitely a scenic one, taking you through some beautiful countryside and charming towns along the way. The distance is about 726 kilometers (450 miles), and it usually takes around 8-9 hours without significant stops. The landscape transitions from urban areas to rolling hills and farmland, which can be quite pleasant if you enjoy driving through the countryside.
However, considering your previous experience with long drives and migraines, flying might be the more comfortable option for you. A flight is relatively short—about 1.5 hours—and will save you the stress of a long drive. If you choose to fly, renting a car upon arrival in Adelaide will allow you to explore the area at your own pace without the exhaustion of a long drive.
If you decide to drive, make sure to take regular breaks to rest and hydrate, and perhaps consider splitting the journey over two days to make it less overwhelming. Ultimately, prioritize your health and comfort when making your decision!
