good tour - Josh was a great tour leader. Very knowledgeable about PE and Charlottetown as he is 6th generation islander. Good pace to the tour. Liked that the tour is limited to 12 as we saw some other groups that were much larger. Learned about history and current life on the island. Josh gave recommendations for restaurants and things to do. Thanks Josh!

Charlottetown Walking Tour - Josh was a great tour leader. He was a wealth of knowledge and also told interesting facts about the places we were seeing that we probably would not have gotten from a self guided tour.

A well rounded shore excursion for your short time in Charlottetown. - Excellent walking tour covering the history and culture of P.E.I., and Charlottetown in particular. We were on an NCL cruise and this tour fit the bill perfectly to get a feel for the area. The colorful presentation was accompanied by pictures and graphics from the guides 3-ring binder. Very well done tour.
