Leaves on time. Need to get on and off the bus a few times and steps are steep so need to be mobile.

A fantastic way to see Adelaide! This half-day City Highlights Tour covered all the key landmarks and areas, and our driver was friendly, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable about the city and its history. A great introduction for first-time visitors — highly recommended!

.....and the park is Adelaide Park Lands which has 29 parks and 6 city squares. The city of Adelaide is indeed compact with so many places close by to explore and is bordered by The Adelaide Park Lands, with so much green space and fresh air around. Hopefully, we are able to visit as many of the parks and gardens. We were in Adelaide City for a week from 7th October, 2025 until 14th October, 2025. The city is peaceful and lots of things to see and do. We did not rent a car as we knew we could see and explore more in every nook and corner of the city when we walk. By the way, the public transport is convenient and reliable, if we need transport. Shopping and eatery areas were the first we explored when we arrived. We got to Rundle Mall area, Chinatown area, Adelaide Central Market area, etc. A must to eat at Peter Rabbit too. The Adelaide Botanic Garden is a must to visit as the garden is like no other gardens. It is so very big and a very interesting garden. After the Botanic walk, we strolled along North Terrace (westward) from the garden's edge, which is the cultural heart of Adelaide, where we got to see the State Library of South Australia (with its famous Mortlock Wing), South Australia Museum, Art Gallery, and University, all bordering the northern side of the Botanic Garden. In between the city, we got to hop on and hop off from the free trams .....very convenient, within a designated " Free Tram Zone " from the Entertainment Centre to South Terrace (via North Terrace ). Along South Terrace, we strolled at Veale Gardens/Walyu Yarta/Veale Park and Lundie Gardens/Mirnu Wirra/Golden Wattle Park. Occasionally, we took the City Connector Busses (98A/C & 99A/C) for broader free loops around the CBD and North Adelaide. Another attraction is the historic Adelaide Railway Station, which has been restored delicately especially the interior of it, into a very nice modern building while preserving its heritage features. The Railway Station is linked to the Riverbank Precinct, Festival Centre, and Riverbank Pedestrian Bridge (to cross over River Torrens) and to the Adelaide Oval (Stadium). At that side of Adelaide Oval, we continued our walk and arrived at Pinky Flat on Tantanya Wama, which is one of the 29 parks. Also walked along Barr Smith Walk on the River Torrens bank nice walking pathway after some time at Elder Park. The Adelaide Convention Centre is also located by the River Torrens accessible from North Terrace and connected via the Riverbank Precinct. As for Adelaide Entertainment Centre which we arrived there by the free tram, and because it was on a weekday and without any specific event, the atmosphere was very dull and quiet. Anyway, we got to explore the place with peace, though not much to explore there because even the row of shops there were all closed. Besides just exploring Adelaide City, we took a bus from the city on Currie Street, same street as our hotel where we were staying, direct to Adelaide Hills and spent a day in Hahndorf, a very impressive heritage German Village (Australia's oldest German settlement) and another day trip by Replacement Bus service to Glenelg Beach (at the moment until late January, 2026 because of the tram tracks upgrading work, there is the Replacement Bus service , if not there is a direct tram service from the city, so convenient as that, to Glenelg Beach). To take the Replacement Bus is no hassle at all and very convenient and reliable to Glenelg Beach. Both day trips were worthwhile going, about 28 km (a 50- minute bus ride) and about 10-12 km ( about 45-minute trip ) respectively from Adelaide city. After a week, we realised we need to stay longer, especially to complete our walk to all the 29 lovely parks and gardens, which we did not get to visit all this time. Looks like we have to make another trip here to complete the remaining parks we have not visited. On the whole, it was an enjoyable one-week stay in Adelaide for both of us.

Very enjoyable tour around the city with a great operator who provided plenty of information as we travelled around the city. The National Wine Centre was very interesting with great displays on the history of wine in the regions. St Peters Cathedral was impressive as well. The views of the city from Montefiore Hill and Lights Vision Memorial were great. Would recommend to anyone visiting Adelaide for their first time.

The comfy bus and very informative and amusing driver made this one of the best city tours I've ever done. Need to do it on arrival in Adelaide so you can work out which of the many attractions you want to see more of. Well Done to the Driver.

Gives a really good orientation to the city of Adelaide and would be best done first before any other tours. Picture is of the Grote Street side of the building. Really well placed and centrally located. Driver Steve was full of info and knows his stuff. Took a mountain of pictures as we saw dozens of statues, monuments, buildings, locations and shops. Fields, rivers, places of interest and so on.
