Everything about Discover Sarasota Tours was awesome ! We especially liked our city tour guide Pat. He was very entertaining,knowledgeable and humorous at the same time. We will certainly do it again.

Denise, thank you for taking the time to write this review and for all the time it took you to organize a wonderful outing for older adults who still want to learn and engage with Sarasota!

Terrific tour around Sarasota. Siggie and Steve gave a very fun and informative overview of the sites and locations. Steve, being a lifelong Sarasotan gave an insider’s perspective of the city with humor and knowledge only a local would know. An actor and comedian, he made a 1 1/2 hour tour seem way too short. Really wish we had enough time to take some of the other tours offered.

I was impressed the minute I drove into the parking lot and learned I could leave my car there for free. Then I went inside to check in and was greeted by Ryan, who was over-the-top polite and helpful. My guide was Kathryn who did a terrific job explaining Sarasota's great history and along with contemporary sites, such as the Ringling Museum. Siggy did an awesome job navigating through the traffic.
