False advertising. All we did was drive around and only stopped at the Wine Centre and had to purchase our own drink. I thought we were going to stop at more places. Totally over priced and would appreciate a refund. Toby the driver did a good job.

Going to the wine centre and the cathedral. Able to have a nice smoko at the wine centre. The bus driver was very knowledgeable.

This tour was a bonus, buy two full day tours and the Highlights Tour is free. Terry was our driver/guide, very knowledgeable and giving a great overview of Adelaide history, places of interest from major attractions to the very obscure, as we journeyed slowly along the streets with many pauses for photos and stops at St Peter's Cathedral, Montefiore Lookout and Haigh's Visitor Centre. We had great maps from the Adelaide Tourist Centre and our hotel but this tour provided a more tangible overview and sense of direction. It was crammed full of interest, perhaps too much, but certainly allowed us to be more selective in our later sightseeing. Kudos.

Absolutely boring! Waste of money. Really good I guess if you’re looking for a history lesson way too much information given to actually retain as I’m a tourist and not local. Church was cool, botanical gardens are free do them on your own time! Waste of whatever I paid $68 I think could of rented a car for that! City of churches so check them out around every corner. Tour guide was neither friendly nor informative got a bit animated when he had to talk about the city.

We did the Adelaide City Highlights tour - i think we could have seen nearly as much as getting on and off the free bus that tours around Adelaide - we also did the Popeye boat which we found boring
OpinionGuru - 5/5
We took the tour during our recent visit and it was very good. People who miss this miss out a lot on the highlights that would be passed up without someone pointing them out. The price was inexpensive and I would highly recommend this.

Adelaide is not a good city for touring, as it does not have many important sights. Cramped tour bus ride.
