A Must Do! - Beth was an outstanding tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Kennebunkport, as well as the architecture of the homes in the area. She really made you feel welcome, and just a pleasure to talk with. Thank you for a great day, Beth!

Great Tour - This was my first time visiting Kennebunkport and I am so happy I decided to take this tour. Our tour guide Beth was very knowledgeable and passionate about her city. I saw and learned far more on this tour than I would have by wandering around by myself. Thank you Beth!

Best Two Hours Spent in Kennebunkport! - We took a day trip down to Kennebunkport from Portland and wanted to get the most our of our time there. We decided the 2pm history tour would be the best way, and it certainly was! Our tour guides Julie and Peter had a wealth of information to share. We were able to go inside a couple of the very old homes we learned about. We happened to book the tour on the 3rd day of the new season, so there were only three of us, which was nice! I highly recommend. Oh, and if you are driving, there is a public pay lot on the right, just as you enter the square by Alisson's Restaurant. It fills up, so get there before lunch and snag a spot.

A glorious day in Kennebunkport - Our walking tour with Beth was wonderful! We learned of the shipping history and many great stories of the community & private homes. The tour allowed us to visit inside homes & beautiful Bed and Breakfast Inns. Beth was very knowledgeable & engaging and has certainly done her research. I can highly recommend this tour for an enjoyable day trip while in Kennebunkport.

A must do tour! - Lots of picture taking. Beth has great knowledge of the history of this beautiful town and she was so very friendly. We are from Texas and there were two other couples close to our hometown.

A nice, guided stroll through Kennebunkport - Our guide, Julie, was knowledgeable and a good story teller. Interesting history, beautiful houses some with ghosts. Very New England.
