The classical action adventure is something like King's Quest. The genre roots in Colossal Cave and its golden days weren't action but puzzle adventures, things like Monkey Island.
If you look at the definition of the genre yep RPGs usually are adventures, but not all adventures are RPGs. Also you can't takes those things too seriously as strictly speaking many e.g. vertical shooters qualify. In the end genres operate pretty much on a "I know it when I see it" basis and have quite fuzzy borders.
