Listen to the intriguing, unexpected, and utterly incredible stories from your local guide, stories widely omitted from history books.

Surrounded by charming Victorian-style architecture and with the cobblestone pavement under your feet, we will casually meander around Portland’s verdant, historical Old Port towards the shimmering Casco Bay. We’ll visit the historical sites where Indigenous Wabanaki leaders first met European settlers and walk through history together.
