This was a great audio tour that allowed me to wander about the city learning various facts and data points that made me feel like I had really come to understand what made Adelaide tick. I really enjoyed this audio tour. I highly recommend it for the price point.

Good tour of key points in the city. Some good stories in there, a bit too much factoid data (eg. m2 of the shopping area). The audio directions didn't match the lines shown on the map in the app at times.

Very comfortable vehicle. Tour guide was informative and easy to talk to. Pick up location was not clear BUT I was able to phone and talk to someone for clarity. Very enjoyable.

Our tour was excellent, Sam our tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable, we had a great morning and enjoyed our tour immensely.. Thanks Sam
