Highlights

If you are a huge foodie, or want to see Adelaide's culture through local eyes, join the original Adelaide food tour showcasing the city's unique specialties. Suited well for sweet-tooths, this two-hour tour has a local guide detailing the amazing stories of locally made products. You'll taste the city's best chocolate, nuts, and iced coffee, plus oddities we grow up eating in Adelaide: a frog cake and some fritz. Finally, lunch will be provided from within the market at a popular bakery (a meat pie/pasty etc of your choice). Take away a surprise dessert plus extra goodies to continue your Adelaide food journey! *Vegetarians can be catered for; please request this on booking. *Children will receive a flavoured milk or juice instead of iced coffee unless requested otherwise. *Wednesday is an ‘optional’ day for stallholders where about 70% of the market is open, but there's still lots to explore. *If there is only one person booked, we have the right to reschedule or cancel the tour.

About Adelaide

Adelaide is a relaxed, green capital of South Australia, laid out as a grid inside a ring of parkland, with wine country and beaches close by.

Colonel William Light planned Adelaide in 1837 as a tidy grid of streets and five squares, then circled it with the parklands that still separate the centre from the suburbs. North Terrace lines up the state library, art gallery, museum and university, and the Torrens River runs through the middle, with the Adelaide Oval on its bank. Rundle Mall and the Central Market cover shopping and food.

Top-ranked sights in Adelaide: Mt. Lofty, Kangaroo Island, Adelaide Oval.
