Meet your guide at Beehive Corner, outside the Haigh’s Chocolates Store, 2 Rundle Mall Adelaide
Description
Delve into the unique and diverse bar scene of Adelaide, as you wander around the city.
After months of research we combined Adelaide’s best laneway bars with her most interesting stories. Adelaide has some truly world class bars, but you'll have a hard time finding them. This city makes you work to discover her best parts, which is why you’ll find some of the most unique bars behind other venues, underneath laneways, or tucked into repurposed spaces.
Join your experienced local guide and uncover four of these fascinating venues in one afternoon and learn what makes each one special. These clandestine watering holes have been carefully chosen for their atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious drinks. Between bars, your tour host will share all sorts of little-known facts and other “hidden” aspects of Adelaide. If all that isn’t enough, at the end of our tour, we’ll even give you a treasure map of other top food and drink venues so you can continue your exploration of Adelaide!

Adelaide Hidden Bars
Ryan, our guide, was absolutely outstanding and extremely personable and knowledgeable about the history and interesting facts of the area, including street art, and bar facts. Really made our evening
Operator response
Hi Martin,
Thanks so much for the fantastic review! We’re chuffed to hear that Ryan helped make your evening such a memorable one.
Ryan is a great storyteller, so it’s brilliant to hear you enjoyed his knowledge of Adelaide’s history, street art and, of course, the stories behind some of the city’s hidden bars! That combination of great venues, local stories and a few surprises is exactly what we love about our Adelaide Hidden Bar Tour.
Our Adelaide bar tours are designed to take you beyond the obvious, discovering hidden venues and fascinating corners of the city while enjoying a relaxed Adelaide walking tour along the way.
Thanks again for joining us and for the kind words about Ryan. We hope to see you again for another Adelaide tour and another round of hidden gems!
Many Thanks,

Lots of fun
Fantastic tour of hidden bars down laneways you can’t see from the Main Street and I wouldn’t walk down by myself! Ryan (AKA Paul, Chris as someone forgot his name) was very friendly, easy to talk to, very knowledgeable. I recommend eating before the tour as most places are closed by the end of it.
Operator response

Great hidden bar tour
My partner and I had a great time with Ryan (it was just us). The bars that were selected were all very different but very cool… no way we would have found a couple of them by ourselves!! Ryan was the perfect host, entertaining us with some of the stories of Adelaide pubs, and mixing in the history of Adelaide with the laws of years gone by. Cocktails were all customised by the individual bars, and were all excellent, so brilliant choices. Can’t recommend this tour highly enough.

We thoroughly enjoyed the hidden bar tour.
As visitors to Adelaide we really enjoyed this tour.
Our guide Ryan was excellent and gave us an insight into the history of the city and the stories behind some of the alleyway artworks.
The 4 hidden bars we visited were eclectic and all very different.
Some of the cocktails pushed the boundaries of the norm but were very tasty even when on paper they didn’t sound like they should work.
There were plenty of options for those who just like a beer/wine or don’t drink at all.
Our group ranged from 20-60yrs and we all had a fun night out.

Really great tour
Ryan is an absolute dude, very knowledgeable, super friendly and you can tell that he wants to make sure everyone has a good time. He has some really great stories to tell as well.
We got taken to some absolute gems that I wouldn't have been able to just discover on my own. We had a really good group and all the bars welcomed us in and gave us recommendations.
This is a really good way to meet other people if you are out on your own or solo travelling but would also be good for anyone more settled here to find some hidden gems.

Exploring Adelaide's interesting & hidden side
Did this small group tour for a 70th birthday with 4 other friends. Had a fabulous time visiting 4 hidden cocktail bars & learning about Adelaide's interesting history along the way, not to mention seeing some of the amazing street art! Being locals we could honestly say we saw a different side to Adelaide & thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Ryan was a great tour guide & very funny & informative. Can highly recommend doing this tour to check out a different side to Adelaide. Tour was for 2 1/2 hrs & well worth the fee.
