Say hello to Dave, your new virtual tour guide on our Adelaide Firsts tour! Dave isn’t just your average history buff – he’s a town planner who’s way too excited about grids, greenery, and all the quirky "firsts" that make Adelaide, well... Adelaide. If you’ve ever wanted to dive deep into the city’s hidden gems but were worried about it getting too serious, don’t worry – Dave’s got you covered with his blend of fun facts and dad jokes. He’ll tell you everything from how Adelaide became the first planned city in Australia to why the River Torrens has more stories than the average history book (and probably more ducks). We’ve brought Dave on board because who better to guide you through Adelaide than someone who loves the city so much, he might just burst into song about its urban planning (don't worry, we haven’t let him do that... yet). So, lace up your walking shoes, get ready to explore Adelaide’s coolest "firsts," and let Dave show you a side of the city even locals will find surprising – all with a few laughs along the way! Trust us, you’re in for a grid time (Dave made us add that).

We're thrilled to share the stories behind Stories Unseen , where the magic of storytelling meets the excitement of exploration! Whether you’re a local adventurer or a curious traveler, our self-guided tours are designed to help you discover the hidden gems and fascinating stories behind some of the most iconic locations in Western Australia  and South Australia . Our journey began with a simple idea – to create experiences that go beyond the ordinary, allowing people to explore places on their own terms while uncovering stories that often remain untold. From wandering the vibrant streets of Perth to delving into the rich heritage of Adelaide, each tour offers something unique, created in partnership with passionate locals who know these places best. In fact, you might even learn things that surprise the locals themselves! Our team has created so many magical moments, and we’re super proud to share our passion for forgotten people and places with all kinds of explorers. Since 2022, we've been chasing golden hour, checking out happy hours, and digging through hundreds of history books. We’re always tweaking and testing something new to make sure travellers get the best possible experience. At Stories Unseen, we believe that travel is about connection – not just to the places you visit, but to the history, culture, and people that make them truly special. Our tours aren’t just about ticking off landmarks; they’re about immersing yourself in the narrative of each destination, discovering the lesser-known tales that bring it to life. So whether you’re looking to learn about the quirky 'firsts' of Adelaide or dive deep into Perth’s cultural evolution, we’ve got you covered. Our app puts the power of exploration in your hands, with carefully curated tours that make it easy to explore more at your own pace. Thank you for joining us on this journey – we can’t wait to help you see the world differently with Stories Unseen.
