Great guided tour - This tour of Sarasota did not disappoint. From the unique trolley bus, the fun tour director and excellent driver, we experienced a great overview of the Sarasota area. They introduced us to so many unique places with so many facts that we then took the time to explore the sights over the next few days.

Don’t miss it - We had a lovely time Mike and John were amazing Driver and host. I would highly recommend it is especially if you haven’t been here before it gives you a nice oversight of the town plus wonderful restaurants to try out. My aunt and I stayed in siesta key but we wanted to check out the Sarasota area and though I live in Florida, I never knew some of the most interesting information that John had to give Mike was an excellent driver.

Not to be missed! - Whether you are visiting this beautiful city or have been a resident for decades, this should be on your six most important things to do. You get a great overview of the layout of the city, its colorful history, and a long list of places to eat and museums to explore.
Our guide, Pat, was winsome, knowledgeable, and so very entertaining. It would be easy to take this to her again.👍🏼

Loved this tour of Sarasota! - This tour is a must for anyone traveling to Sarasota and wanting an overview of the area. Our tour guide, John, was interesting and shared a world of knowledge about Sarasota being that he has been a resident of the area for many years. He shared stories and jokes that had everyone amused. I would definitely recommend the City Sightseeing Trolley Tour to all. Our driver Jon was also excellent as he kept us safe from crazy drivers that day!

Worthwhile tour of Sarasota! - I toured with my partner and a college-age grandson. Even though we have a second home in Sarasota, we haven’t had the time to dig into the history of the city. The tour was interesting, informative and fun for all of us. It is something we would definitely recommend most highly.
