5.00Andrea was a fantastic tour guide as we explored various sites around the Adelaide CBD. While we had visited a few of these places the previous afternoon whilst walking around the city, having her insight & historical knowledge really added to our enjoyment of the cityscape. We also picked up some great dining tips. Thanks, Andrea, for a very pleasant morning!

5.00I had the pleasure of joining Katina last week for the Welcome to Adelaide tour. It is the absolute perfect way to start your visit to this great little city. Discounted coffee, history, culture, street art, architecture, tips and tricks and more. You get it all. The departure point was super easy to find and the tour ends at the Adelaide Central Market - just in time for lunch, coincidentally! I would highly recommend this tour to anybody visiting Adelaide. I wish actually that I had of had the time to do the F Factor food tour or the Adelaide Central Market tour. Amazing value for money.
