About this tour
Navigate Adelaide's secretive drinking culture with a local guide who knows where the good stuff hides. Over 2–3 hours, you'll slip into four carefully selected bars tucked behind shopfronts, beneath laneways, and inside repurposed buildings. Your guide fills the gaps between stops with lesser-known Adelaide stories and insider knowledge. You'll walk away with a curated map to keep exploring, exclusive bar discounts, and a working understanding of why this city rewards curiosity.

What to expect
Expect to walk—comfortably shod—through Adelaide's laneways and side streets as your guide points out the unmarked doors and nondescript entrances that lead somewhere worth being. Each bar has its own character: different layouts, different drink lists, different crowds. You'll spend roughly 30–40 minutes at each stop, ordering what appeals (budget $12–$26 per drink) while your guide contextualises the venue's history or quirks. Between bars, you're moving through the city, so pace yourself. The whole experience feels less like a tourist tick-box and more like a mate showing you around their Adelaide.
