Graeme was extremely informative- couldn’t recommend him highly enough! We learnt so much about some historical landmarks around Adelaide CBD that we would never have known about and what a wonderful way to orientate oneself to the city. Graeme really had done alot of research and is an absolute wealth of knowledge for any visitor to the city.
