Interesting/informative history of the Cincinnati area. - We thought this tour was very well done. It was informative and we enjoyed seeing the historical photos of many of the buildings and founders of the Cincinnati area that were displayed on the screens around the bus. Glad we took this tour!!

Fantastic tour and tour guide-I would go on this tour again! - I went on this tour with a group of 22 ladies and we had a great time. It was a very nice air conditioned mini bus with 2 people per seat. The tour was prerecorded on a TV screen so I wasn't sure how interesting it would be. However it turned out to be a good way to see and hear lots of information. As we passed historic sites/buildings there were old pictures of how the streets, people and points of interest looked like back in the day. Also our driver Anthony was able to interject additional information and answer our questions. It was extremely interesting and entertaining. The tour took us through historic Covington, Newport and Cincinnati. We were able disembark at the Cincinnati Museum center ( old train station) and spend a few minutes there. I would highly recommend this tour and Anthony our tour guide was fantastic! This would be a good tour to take your visitors and family on. Next time I will take a note pad to write down some of the many interesting facts about the area but were too numerous to remember them all.
