I was thrilled with this Tour! I was a first time Visitor and I was delighted with Steve (born and raised here) and his stories and insights to Local History! I had "Everything" to learn and it was like a You Tube Video playing with tons of information ! I especially appreciated the bottled water as I had a bit of trouble with the local tap water. It was very thoughtful! Steve kept us all amused with his fabulous stories and I am wondering if he was an Offspring of Ringling's, The Ringmaster! Some of our Roads were very narrow and hard to navigate, yet Siggi kept us all safe with his excellent driving! It is hard to explain what a relief it is when your Bus Driver is competent, so you can focus on other things! Thanks everyone for an excellent tour, filled with fun and delight! I will be back and will try each of them as I can!

The tour was better than my expectations. Both Steve, the tour guide, and Ziggi, the driver, were entertaining and quite knowledgeable. It was a lot to absorb in one trip. So we look forward to our next visit.
