My husband and I love walking tours and this one of Port Adelaide with Katina was an excellent one. Katina is a great guide, she's articulate and passionate about the area, she gives a great overview of the interesting history, highlights and future plans for the area. We loved the local insights and treats and came away with a greater understanding and appreciation of the Port area. We hope more people take this wonderful tour, you won't regret it!

Do yourself a favour and take advantage of this walking tour if you can.
A very different way to see and understand the history of the early settlers to Adelaide. Not to mention seeing a different part of South Australia, which we would probably not have visited without an informative guided tour.
The buildings and architecture as years progressed, having a stop at the British Pub for an ale or similar in the Cellar, and the stories from their past makes this tour of Port Adelaide a worthwhile experience.
Thanks Katina for squeezing us in on our weekend stopover in Adelaide.
We enjoyed meeting you and partaking of all 4 tours you and your company had on offer for us.
