We were a small group so I was able to hear all the information easily. Graeme, our guide, was very knowledgeable and obviously enjoyed the experience of showing us around. It's a great way to orientate yourself in a new place.
Great day in Adelaide

A most enjoyable tour. Our guide’s knowledge of Adelaide, it’s history and the background stories of the people and the events that made the city was so interesting. I heartily recommend this tour.

Graham our guide was very informative. I didn't believe we could fill 2 hours just walking around the square but there was so much history and stories about the characters who influenced the development of the city that the time flew by.
Enjoyable walking tour

We really enjoyed our tour with Graeme. He was well prepared and arrived early to start our tour.
Graeme was very informed on the history of Adelaide and able to answer any of our questions.
I would happily recommend a tour with Graeme.

The guide arrived on time and was was very knowledgeable. What I enjoyed most was being taken inside the buildings (where possible) to see surviving features. A great way to learn some of the history of Adelaide.
Great tour and learned a lot

I love a good walking tour to get to know the cities I visit and this tour was just right. Graeme has his plan and is very tuned in to his audience based on our questions and energy. This walking tour is just the right pace and although it was just my husband and myself, I would recommend it for many ages and abilities.
Looking forward to going to Adelaide again and signing up for some of the other tours Graeme offers.

Our tour guide, Graeme, was a wealth of knowledge. It was amazing how he made the historical information so interesting. We started and finished at the Town Hall and literally walked around Victoria Square discussing the notable buildings and statues and the history behind them. Graeme imparted, not only the history of them, but provided us with some hilarious anecdotes along the way. One of the best walking tours we’ve been on.
Excellent and interesting information

This is the best walk around tour I have done. Graeme was extremely knowledgeable and the information was fascinating and well researched.The humours and interesting anecdotes you introduced to the tour brought the history of the square to life. I can recommend this tour to locals and tourists alike. Thank you Graeme, we will be working through your other tours each time we visit as they also look excellent.
Interesting and informative

I learned a lot about the history of Adelaide - the reason I chose this walk. Graeme was very much on top of this - he was enthusiastic, informative and eager to answer my multiple questions. I was the only one at the time but he took his time to show me around. If you interested in history I would recommend this tour. Wish I had more time in Adelaide to have done his other tours as well. Thanks Graeme.
An enlightening tour

A very enjoyable tour, what a great way to be introduced to Adelade and its history. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a great outline on the historic buildings and the history relating to this city. I found it very interesting and enlightening. I would not have thought to enter by myself some of the buildings that we entered. Especially the building that was the Charles Moores department store, with a remarkable marble staircase, which is now one of the law courts in Adelaide. Our guide, Graham, walked us through the political figures and people who each played a part in establishing and building this city. He spent extra time with our group (of 4) explaining the personalities and peculiarities of each one as well. The tour was not rushed and we walked the tour at our own pace. Also, the tour was not overly long. I highly recommend this tour to others.
