You must do this! - This is a must do in Adelaide. The market is one of the world's best but made an even better experience thanks to the expert guidance and in depth knowledge of the guides. Broni was fabulous - informative and fun to be with. The tastings were lovely and the whole experience will be one of our best memories of our Australian holiday. David - Broni deserves a pay rise!

If you love food... - Fabulous exploration of Adelaide's big foodie culture and the melting pot that brings it all together.... the Central Market. Knowledgeable guide clearly passionate about food and the market. Highly recommended. Perhaps plan to stick around for lunch afterwards. So many great choices.

Amazing - We were so impressed with this tour! We learnt so much about the history of the market stalls and the families behind them, as well as enjoying some lovely tastings! We were able to go back and buy things from our favourite stalls after the tour and we spent a few hours in total there as there is so much to see! Will definitely be recommending this to everyone we know.

Great tour for historical perspective of markets and finding some hidden gems amongst the market stalls - Having moved to Adelaide 3 years ago, I would go to the Adelaide Central Markets periodically, but going on the discovery tour provided a historical perspective that I found very interesting and also introduced me to a range of stalls that I had never really taken any notice of before. Being able to taste / try some of their produce / goods enabled me to determine whether I was interested in buying their goods more frequently. I have also taken interstate visitors on this tour (3 separate times over the last 12 months) to introduce them to the market and have a lovely tasting experience which they have all enjoyed. Broni the Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. She has a lovely rapport with the stall owners which makes the whole experience feel inclusive.

Broni was well prepared and knowledgeable.. couldn’t ask for a better way to check out the markets. Definitely recommend.

Great tour if you are a tourist or loval - Great tour. We are locals but learnt so much about the wonderful institution in our own backyard. I have a deeper love and appreciation for the central market- and have a couple of new faves to try for lunch!

The fresh and flavoursome taste of Central Market - A special shout out to Broni! What a fantastic tour of the Central Market she gave my cousin and I. As a ‘local’ who moved to Adelaide from Scotland a few years ago it was a great to be a tourist for the day and learn more about the market. I normally would run in, grab what I needed and leave. The opportunity to stop at stalls and taste different foods was great. I enjoyed it so much I returned to some of the stalls (the ones I could remember where they were ) to buy their produce. I will be rebooking again in the future for my visitors. Definitely value for money!

Interesting - The tour itself was informative and travelled at the right pace. It was interesting to find out the history of the market and owners of the stalls. Unfortunately the meeting place instructions were unclear making finding the tour and being on time more stressful then it should have.
