Got friends or family coming to Adelaide for Gather Round this year? We have an exclusive food tour to help footy fans get ready for what will be a massive weekend!

Food for the Footy is our one-hour walking tour that takes in some of South Australia's most loved foods, and is an official associated event for this year's Festival of Footy. It's all about getting food for the footy the right way in Adelaide, building up a bag of snacks to be game-ready while enjoying samples along the way!

Can we do Adelaide Fringe all over again?

SO many amazing groups... where do I begin?

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ More and more Adelaide Fringe lovers are joining us for the Adelaide Fringe: A History tour each year, which took out a Weekly Award again in 2025!

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ We worked around temperatures as high as 41 degrees, where we adapted things to keep cool (walkers on that Port tour were PHENOMENAL)

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ Jimmy C's street art was enjoyed during Fringe for the first time, including from one of his old schoolmates πŸ˜„

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ Three schools visiting Adelaide for the festival season also got involved on art/Fringe history tours from Victor Harbor, Murray Bridge and Victoria!

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ While we didn't win the overall award for the category of Workshops and Talks, attending the awards was a fun way to celebrate our amazing season and also some incredible artists doing great things.

Another Mad March season that's come and gone, but we already can't wait for next year!

We give a HUGE thank you to those who have attended our Fringe tours so far!

Adelaide Fringe is in full swing - and you still have plenty of opportunities to join us on tour as part of the official program!

πŸ‘‰ Port Adelaide Walking Tour - we won a Fringe Weekly Award for this in 2023 for great storytelling of the area (I'm sure having an included drink along the way also helped)

ON THIS DAY: Women's suffrage pioneer Mary Lee was born in 1821!

Born in Ireland, Mary came to South Australia to help her ailing son who had moved here. After his death, she dedicated herself to creating gender equality by way of getting women the vote.

She is considered one of the key figures of South Australia's women’s rights movement, a natural progression after her election as founding secretary of the Social Purity Society. She also advocated for fairer societal rights, seeking legal changes for how women’s sexual and social status were viewed.

Her work for the South Australian Women’s Suffrage League contributed to the Constitution Amendment Act on 18 December 1894, making South Australia the second large jurisdiction globally to allow females to vote - and also to stand for public office!

FUN FACT: In 2017 the City of Adelaide named Mary Lee Park (Park 27B) to honour her, which is opposite the Bowden development.

Happy birthday to this truly amazing woman!

In case you missed it, we've had a scorcher in Adelaide today with 43 degree heat. And provided our guests are happy to oblige, we walk rain, hail or shine!

Melanie and Megan were absolute troopers today, keeping hydrated along the way and not letting morning heat get in the way of their exploring! 🩷🦩

How do you keep cool in heat this intense?

Dockside Festival was such a great event to kick-start the busy 2025 festival season! Two amazing groups came on a FREE walk with Flamboyance Tours made possible by City of Port Adelaide Enfield, showcasing snippets of the Port in a one-hour guided experience.

What great energy locals bring to a community event like this, wanting to learn more about the Port Adelaide area and getting curious. The event showcased some great local eateries, amazing AI experiences, and drew attention to the historic Hart's Mill area.

The key to vitality in life is to wander and be full of wonder! Curiosity about travel is the spice of life, don't you think?

Happy Lunar New Year to those who celebrate - we hope it brings you much prosperity!

We are entering the Year of the (Wood) Snake in 2025. Key words describing that animal include fiery, wise and determined, and we absolutely love that kind of energy! It's a year to be cautious about decisions we make too, and ones that are ultimately right for us. Thankfully walking tours are always a good idea - what we offer stimulates the mind, body and spirit both physically and mentally!

Fun fact: Your chief guide Katina was born in a Snake year!

Plenty of locals are joining our Port Adelaide Walking Tour this summer, and we absolutely LOVE IT!

It's so important to have curiosity about what's in your backyard, and these three lovely South Australians took full advantage of a gorgeous January afternoon with us.

We're so grateful for their amazing feedback too! Knowing we are sharing stories effectively in the eyes of locals means so much πŸ™

Did you know we offer walking tours for students? Taking groups from high schools and universities is such a rewarding experience, and we see it as a privilege to help educate the next generation!

To make sure we do right by any young person joining our tours, we have the right policies in place for a safe learning environment. Flamboyance Tours staff (Katina and Andrea) have current Working With Children Checks issued in South Australia, and current Child Safe Environments training. Our linked Child Safe Environments Policy is available to read on our website. This policy is approved by SA's Department for Human Services and enables our procedure for recognising children at risk of harm.

These cool cats joined us on a previous tour for Adelaide Fringe about the event's history, which we run every year.

Together?! YES!

Meet the PAINT AND PALATE STREET ART TOUR!

It's the best of both worlds. We highlight the works of and other incredible South Australian street art, and grab some sweet bites along the way that are unreal!

This evolution of our street art tour allows more time for a broader mix of works and sharing how Adelaide's street art has evolved. We also dedicate time for a wander through our awesome Chinatown precinct!

I'm so excited to have this available for you to discover. You can find out more and book at the Flamboyance Tours website.

How is 2024 over already?! What a year it's been!

From training Andrea to run tours, to starting up our Adelaide Central Market Tour, to coming away with silver in Cultural Tourism at the SA Tourism Awards, it's been HUGE!

This is a random selection of images off the Flamboyance phone across the last 12 months, which in collating them was a great trip down memory lane! They represent a broad cross-section of all the great tours we run, as well as random things like trying fritz variants (see our Instagram Highlights if that means nothing to you yet).

Thanks to Andrea for her amazing efforts this year, every single person who has joined us on a tour in 2024, and those who follow, like and engage with us here and other social platforms. Have a wonderful celebration wherever you are to bring in 2025 - Happy New Year!

Walking with flamboyant feet

Hey there! If you’re reading this, you must be curious.

We like this trait in people. Flamboyance Tours is a company for the curious. We want travellers on our tours who want to really learn about the city of Adelaide.

You may know little about Adelaide or a lot, but either way, you’ll walk away with some new knowledge and the feeling you’ve been let in on a little secret. Because Adelaide’s that kind of place. People don’t know what to expect, but within the city centre there are a lot of stories to be told.

On a Flamboyance Tours walk, we walk with flamboyant feet. This is our way of saying tours can be fun, inspiring and interactive. It’s about being together with like-minded travellers to explore a new destination and feeling great.
