The Sights of the Twin Cities - The tour was great! They met us at our designated area in a timely fashion. They greeted me in a professional and friendly manner. Doug, The tour guide was very knowledgeable. I'm very proud of the city of Minneapolis. The driver, Paul, was a safe driver. They took us to all of the key points in Minneapolis. I'd never been to the city, so everything was new to me. They dropped us off at our designated area, Doug recommended some lunch spots in the Mall of America. It was a pleasant experience.. I highly recommend it.

Great experience, good value - We were a group of 6 adults, w 4 locals and one couple visiting from Chicago. We locals enjoyed sitting back & seeing our area as tourists and showing off the Twin Cities to our Windy City friends. Our guide did a super job tying in the sights, history and local background. Very entertaining, excellent delivery (a combination of a good college course & coffee shop conversation). The driver did a seamless job moving thru the Cities as well - great job with the driving & navigating the streets & freeways.

Our Highlight of the Week! - Tour Guide was excellent! Very well informed. He spoke clearly. Tossed in a few jokes and light hearted comments. Bus driver was friendly, professional and drove safely. Had enough time at each stop to enjoy the views and grab an ice cream!
