Dax was a great guide. His information was very interesting covering both historical and contemporary aspects of the story of Adelaide ranging from the days of settlement to the many art works that dot the city. He was very knowledgeable re the back stories of the art works, the buildings and the people. We particularly liked the story of the statue of Roma Mitchell. We also appreciated the short break at halfway to enjoy the provided SA snacks!
