Summary: I find walking tours to be an effective way of getting to know a city, and this tour did not disappoint. Graeme was an excellent guide - deeply knowledgeable and with an authentic love of the city. We visited a number of the city's key sights, and Graeme's commentary provided history and context that I otherwise would not have known. I highly recommend this tour.

Summary: I would highly recommend this tour. Easy walking with lots of stops. Our guide DAX was engaging and friendly with a wealth of knowledge about Adelaide - history, food, culture and points of interest. He sold me on Adelaide so I will definitely be returning. Perhaps around The Fringe Festival time.

Summary: First time we have ever done a walking tour and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Definitely doing walking tours whenever we travel from now on. Great way to orientate yourself, learn much of the history of the city, find hidden gems, visit places and buildings you would otherwise walk past or not know they are there and make plans for the rest of your stay. Highly recommend!
