Adelaide Overview - For a first timer in Adelaide, this was a great overview tour of the city, plus a most enjoyable visit to the National Wine Center. It was a great start to a 3-day visit, and is the gateway to the Barossa Wine Region.

Great way to get a quick overview of the city - We had arrived in Adelaide for a short visit. We started our visit with this 3 hour tour of the city to give us a sense of the layout, history, etc. The tour covered what we needed to make the rest of our visit more pleasant and the city more familiar. Very worthwhile.

Definitely a must do - A great way to start your visit to Adelaide. The advantage is getting to see all the highlights that you can then return to as you wish. The guide (Athol) was fantastic and very informative. We loved North Adelaide

Disappointed - We did not do any of the stated places except for the wine museum,
We did not do the oval and could not do the Peter’s cathedral as there was a funeral at the time, which should have been checked by the operator before the tour. The tour was disappointing.

Average, could have been much better. - This tour was part of a package deal involving Indian Pacific journey and Murray Princess cruise. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to the Central Bus Terminal. Unfortunately the toilets were all locked and caused a bit of concern for some.
The tour was good, but could have been so much better. We spent a lot of time at the Wine Centre and the Cathedral as free time. We passed a lot of city highlights and Peter (driver) gave an informative commentary.
On the way back we were running late and dropped the passengers doing the Popeye river cruise a little late. Peter radioed the company to advise them that 6 passengers were on their way. As we were running late, we were not dropped off at our motel. Peter gave instructions on how to get back to our motels utilising the city’s tram service. An elderly couple staying at our motel was very confused and needed our assistance. We gave them directions on how to return back to hotel (400m) as we were heading to Glenelg by the same tram.
It was a good introduction to the city of Adelaide.
The time management by the driver needs addressing. Peter seems to be experienced and should have known the timing for each point. No passengers were late back to the bus therefore that couldn’t be an excuse.

A try to know the city - The tour went by a big bus around the highlights of the city. The stories were helpful for understanding the city. However, staying the wine centre too long for those did not love wine tasting. The price did not match the value.
