After being berthed for nine weeks in Company's Basin at Port Adelaide,[1] the City of Adelaide sailed from South Australia on 17 December 1867 and arrived in London on 7 April 1868, a duration of 113 days.

Thanks to the generosity of Dr. Alan Platt, historian, specialising in the history of the City of Adelaide and her illustrious masters, we have a list of passengers who are known to have made the return voyage to England aboard her. The list was compiled by Dr. Platt from data collected from Adelaide newspapers by R.T. (Bob) Sexton, noted South Australian maritime author.
