5Superb tour of Adelaide
This is an excellent tour for first time visitors to Adelaide. Dax, our guide, is a fountain of Adelaide & South Australia knowledge. I loved his passion for Adelaide also! You visit areas of the city you would not think to visit yourself, and Dax has a great story behind each stop on the tour. Chuck in some tasty South Australian treats & finishing at the 3rd best food market in the world, you would be a fool not to invest 3hrs of your time with Radelaide Tours seeing Adelaide in all its glory!
5Great introduction to Adelaide!
Excellent walking tour. Dax gave us an excellent introduction to Adelaide. Nice mix of history and current information. Highly recommend!
5Great walking tour
Excellent tour. Dax was very knowledgeable about Adelaide and its landmarks. Would highly suggest this tour as it is a great way to get to know the city.
5A Great City Tour
Dax was a friendly and knowledgeable guide that took us to a great range of places in the CBD of Adelaide. It was very interesting and enjoyable and now we know a great deal more about this beautiful city.
5Good tour value for money
Graemes knowledge is amazing. It was a 3 hour tour. One adjustment, allow for participants to be seated during the tour when providing the history etc. There were plenty of places to stop and sit and listen. Otherwise highly recommend.
5Great walking 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.
