We were so happy we booked this tour. It was a great overview of the city with lots of information we wouldn’t have known without the tour. Loved our tour guide! We varied in age from 9 to 60+, and we all loved it. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide (I do not remember his name) was very friendly, informative, and made our tour a delight. Never thought I would have fun panning for gold.

We took a fantastic tour today with Culture Tours in Helen. The guide was a wealth of information/knowledge. We learned the history of Helen and left with a new appreciation of the town. We also enjoyed a wine tasting and a fudge sampling at a local chocolate store. I would highly recommend this tour when you visit Helen.
