My friend and I enjoyed this guide very much. We learned many things about the history of the city through a very entertaining guide. Our guide gave us an excellent overview of things to do in the area and we already have a few places to visit on our next tour.

Steve was great. We moved to Sarasota 6 months ago. We had family coming to visit and wanted to show them the highlights of Sarasota. We had not had time to discover all the cool places on our own so we needed a tour for them and for ourselves. This tour hit the sweet spot. We learned about history, art, people, restaurants and museums, all interlaced with humor and personal stories. I will definitely take this tour again whenever we have visitors as well as recommending it to other locals.

The guide explained many things about the Sarasota area that I had never heard of and gave us a very thorough tour of the entire downtown area and Armond’s circle. Well worth the price.
