A morning in Portland - Eric was full of information, answered questions and showed lots of enthusiasm for his town as well as us. He was helpful allowing us to wait inside the Beer Hub till everyone assembled and the van was comfortable. The large screen in the van was helpful & we could all hear well. It was an excellent tour with lots of suggestions for the rest of our day too. Bravo Eric!

Interesting small group tour of Portland - Excellent small group tour of Portland with a visit to 3 lighthouses. Good value for money. Comfortable minivan. Easy to find pickup place which was within walking distance of the port. Eric, our driver guide was very knowledgeable and a careful driver. Minimal amount of walking involved - good for people with mobility issues. Would definitely recommend this company

Excellent - Eric, a Portland native, was an excellent guide. He gave us a history as we toured the town and went to the lighthouses. We loved that he offered to take pictures for us and was willing to answer any questions. We appreciated the small tour size and the fact that it accommodated a rolling walker. Would highly recommend and we would definitely do this or another of his tours again

Portland Explorer is the best city tour I've taken anywhere! Scenic, fascinating and super-comfortable. - Portland Explorer is awesome! We took a City & Lighthouse tour and it was scenic, fascinating and super-comfortable. Our host Eric (a co-owner of the business) was among the best guides I've ever enjoyed, and his continuous narration included a ton of little-known facts and stories about the historic City of Portland and the State of Maine. We stopped at three of Portland's many lighthouses, each unique and beautiful in its own way. Ample time was given to wander around, take photos and hear more of Eric's tales. Next time I visit Portland I plan to book another tour - it was *that* good!

Best way to end my stay in Portland - Eric was a great guide and local, who is also a history nerd - you can tell how passionate he is about his hometown. Loved the sites he took us through and the rich history we learned about along the way. Great overview of the town and the three lighthouses were the perfect way to round out my week-stay in Portland. Highly recommend!
