Great experience

The tour was fantastic! Sarah was our tour guide and she was super engaging. We had a really small group but it was really nice and easy to move around together, especially on busier streets. We got to know each other in between stories which is really nice when solo travelling as it can be awkward to be alone in big groups of people who came together. I'd highly recommend these tours as a way to learn a bit about the city and find some niche and interesting locations, as well as find out some history!

Excellent true crime tour

Our guide Kate was very entertaining and really made the tour come alive. She was full of energy and delightful you could tell that she enjoyed what she was doing. The crimes cover a long history from the early settlement of Adelaide up to more recent crimes.

Crime Queen Kira took us on an easy walking tour, seeing parts of Adelaide we may never have seen. Great way to kill a c

Our tour guide Crime Queen Kira took us on a theatrical journey through the streets of Adelaide. The walk was easy, the rain did drizzle at times, but she had spots out of the rain for us to stand. Her voice was loud enough to be easily heard over the traffic and even threw in a few corney puns. She was a great story teller, very knowledgeable, and we had a great time walking through parts of Adelaide we normally would not have. If you have a few hours to kill, call for Kira.

Adelaide's True Crime Tour

What a lovely evening walking through Adelaide hearing the stories of crime from our terrific guide Kate. She told the stories with great energy and humour. We loved seeing all the buildings in the evening light. It was interesting to visit the sites of the crimes that we had already knew and also learn new stories. I would recommend this tour for a fun, easy walking experience to learn another side of Adelaide.

Great way to fill in a couple of hours learning about a part of Adelaide's history. Kira the Canadian, did a great job at adding drama to the script.

She added a touch of humour to the experience too and I found all of the stops along the way fascinating. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to learn another side to Adelaide!
