Fun for all ages - The first thing we did in Adelaide was the F Factor Food Tour and every member of my family enjoyed it. Not only did it keep my kids interested, we learned a lot about the food culture of Adelaide and got to try delicious food we otherwise would have missed.

Food walking tour - This was the most informative, interesting and stomach filling tour. We learnt so much about the food scene in Adelaide plus sampled many of S. A 's unique food. Kat made the tour so interesting and we had so much fun. Would definately recommend this tour to everyone.

Great tour - The tour was fantastic. It was so much more than a tour of Adelaide’s Central Market. Katina provided insight into the evolution of food in Adelaide.

Informative and interesting but a bit expensive - Our guide was lovely. She included many personal anecdotes and some history as well as recommendations. However we felt the cost was too high.
