Fun & Informative - This small group tour allows you to mix and mingle with other travelers while taking in the sites of the city and learning interesting historical data. Some cool stops on the way for snacks & sweet treats, photo ops, souvenirs, cigars and delicious food. Some tour partners that also offer discounts at these locations for your purchases. The host was fun and energetic with a lot of knowledge and love for the city. I would definitely recommend this tour to any new visitors in the area or if you just want to gain a little more visual insight and not just read it on a page.

Tour of Tampa - This was a spectacular tour of Tampa. Highly recommended. We wanted to see the hot spots of Tampa along with some history, and we got it. We hope the company expands to St. Pete before our next visit.

Enjoyable, entertaining, good value - The tour guide/co-owner was knowledgeable and friendly. He showed me a variety of places around town and told me the city's stories. I knew almost nothing about Tampa, so the tour offered me options for restaurants and other sights to see.
