WOW! - Our visit to the Mobile area was really wonderful, mostly due to our tour guide, Dennis! He was not only friendly and courteous, but so knowledgeable about everywhere we went, or even drove by! We learned so much, and saw such wonderful things. The USS Alabama was inspirational: made me extra proud of our country..... The museum and Jefferson Davis home were not only interesting, but we found out so much information about the Civil War Era! (Also a lot about Katrina....) I think my favorite was Bellingrath Gardens and Home: beautiful, quiet, amazing gardens and the house....WOW! We went over to Fort Gaines, also, but just stayed in the car, because we are both in our 70's and basically wore out! Dennis was so accommodating and patient with us. I totally recommend this tour! (The only improvement I would suggest is to make a shorter tour for elderly folks like us..... :-) )
