We split our year between Venice and “up north” and had spent lots of time in Sarasota. And we learned so much more on this very good tour, with Siegfried and Steve. Comfortable air conditioned trolley, plenty of opportunities to ask questions, great scenery. We now have a long list of places to visit next!

We’ve lived in the area for 16 years but we learned lots and visited unexplored neighborhoods on the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and it was a fun experience.

Excellent Tour. Tammy is a true professional with a great personality, Greets you at the door with a beautiful smile and sends you on your way with a cold bottle of water. Nice touch Tammy. Steve has exceptional knowledge of Sarasota with first hand knowledge of the area. He injects his personal comments which are well appreciated. Sigi is a great driver providing a most comfortable ride in a clean air conditioned coach. Highly recommending Discover Sarasota Tours to all my friends, neighbors and business associates.
