Great tour with Elizabeth on June 1, 2024 - Elizabeth was our tour guide. She was very informative and not boring. she had all the answers to our questions and made things fun as a group. She also does a ghost tour in the evening which I wish we would have done.

Awesome and informative! - Liz did an amazing job with our tour today. It was very entertaining, informational, and interactive. She knows her stuff and makes it fun. She was also very accommodating by ensuring that people had places to sit when they needed to rest. She also talked loud so we could always hear her. My husband and I really enjoyed it and would recommend this tour to anyone. Thank you so much!!

Walking tour - The tour guide was excellent and very informative. If you like heat that your place. The only down fall was didn't go into enough buildings. You could go back on your own.
