Giving context to the market. - This tour not only provides information and great sampling, but you will learn about the immigrant history of Adelaide. Without our excellent guide, we would have just drifted through the market without focus or content. Adelaide Central Market is probably one of the best quality and largest in the world.

Tastebud sensation - Brilliant tour. Our guide Steph was fabulous and very knowledgeable. Very grateful to have had the opportunity to sample some stalls that we otherwise would have walked past. Our tastebuds thank you.

Fantastic experience - Our tour guide Broni was lovely and knowledgeable, it was a memorable morning morning of fun and history and tastings . What also made my day is I remember Broni from my youth in the small town we lived in many years ago . Absolutely highly recommend Broni as an asset to the market

Well worth the time - Even though we live in South Australia and have visited the Central Market many times over the years there was so much we didn't know. This tour gave so much insight into the history and current array of traders and products it was wonderful. We got to try produce that in all honesty I would have walked past. Instead, thanks to Broni and the generosity of a variety of traders, we were able to experience many new culinary delights. A big shout out and thanks to Broni for her friendly and insightful tour. Would definitely recommend this tour, sometimes it's worth to be a tourist in your own town 😀

Market Magic! - I'm reasonably regular at the Market - so wasn't sure if this would be worth our while - but Steph's Tour was wonderful and as a gift for my mum's birthday - it was perfect. Learnt a lot about the behind the scenses action and history - and got lots of pretty special treats along the way. Even the 18 year olds took a lot away.

A taste sensation, loved it! - So many tasty samples and a lot of interesting information. Definitely worthwhile. A bonus is that it is a small group tour and so more intimate.

Tasty samples with a guide - We loved this! We could have just walked through the market on our own. But we would have missed out on all the tasty samples, as well as our guide Stephanie’s stories and local insights. We stayed after and went back the same night for another meal and to buy more goodies.
