Learned Much - Jean was a great tour guide. We love history so we loved learning about Tarpon Springs. The houses and buildings were interesting. We went to both beaches and they are free and well maintained.

Family Outing - We’ve been to Tarpon Springs many times and even once conducted our own self-guided tour. But ours was no comparison to the recent tour we took with ForeShore Gulf Carts. With family visiting, we opted to take a professional tour and boy, did Jeanmarie deliver. She led us on a two-hour trip through the various sights of town providing both an informative and historical narrative along the way. Our family of 5 was thrilled and we gained a whole new perspective about Tarpon Springs. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour. It is well worth the time!

Great way to experience Tarpon Springs. Do this tour first during your visit. - This was the first thing we did on our little weekend trip to Tarpon Springs. We got a little of everything: history, culture, sightseeing, a local's point of view and some nice conversation. This tour is a fantastic way to quickly get yourself up to speed. It's nice to sit back, relax and take in the sights while someone else tells you all about it. Thanks for such a great experience!

Pleasant Tour of Tarpon Springs - This was my first time in Tarpon Springs, so I decided to get the lowdown in a comprehensive tour. I thought that our tour guide was great. Very knowledgeable, perhaps too much so. I learned a lot, but I start to zone out after hearing so many historical dates. The trip was enjoyable overall. The beaches and other interesting sights to see were really nice. Our guide was nice. She was very professional. She allowed ample time to ask questions, see sights and take pictures. She went out of her way to go back for us to take pictures of turtles in the park. The golf cart was comfortable. I have no real complaints. It was very hot and luckily the rain held off for the most part. It is a good way to see TS the first time and then explore more on your own. My only reason for not giving 5 stars was TS was not over the top amazing. It's a sleepy little town with not too much going on, so that's not a knock against the tour, just the town in general. TS is worth a day to see the sights and wander Dodacanese Street, grab some food and drinks, etc, but there is not a lot to do. If you are looking for excitement, look elsewhere.
