Jake Williams, owner of Montgomery Tours, was so knowledgable and fun to be with and made sure he included what we were interested in seeing. He had marched with MLK. Perhaps the best tour of our lives! He took us to all of the sites related to Rosa Parks, the bus boycott, voting rights, and the Freedom Riders.We saw the civil rights leaders’ churches and homes. Most important, we heard the back stories of what went on during that time. We also saw wonderful civil rights museums and sculpture gardens including one by Maya Lin and one signifying the lynchings throughout the South. We also saw the Confederate White House and the Alabama State Capitol. Jake introduced us to many members of the community. Jake asked us if we wanted to go with him that evening to Ralph Abernathy’s church for an event commemorating the 63rd anniversary of the Montgomery bus boycott. Fred Gray, attorney for Parks, MLK, and the other leaders of the Boycott spoke. An evening we will never forget!

On 11/20/18 Jake gave my wife and me an absolutely splendid tour of Montgomery. As a life long resident of central Alabama and a graduate of Montgomery State University, Jake has a deep and personal connection to the city and the state, as well as, a unique understanding of the most recent developments and changes in the city and the community. We were accepted for the tour on short notice, picked up at and returned to our hotel. We had already been to a couple of museums, so Jake filled in all the gaps of the places we had missed or didn't know about. It was a wonderful afternoon. We recommend him and Montgomery Tours to anyone who is looking for an outstanding experience.
