We saw key neighborhoods and sights of Sarasota and I've lived here 3 years (and I had never seen some of those sights)! Our guide and driver were excellent and shared interesting facts/commentary on our beautiful city. It was well worth the time and a fair price. This team sure knows how to have fun, we laughed, learned and smiled a lot!

Our guide, Jon, was an excellent guide. Very informative and entertaining. A great way to learn about Sarasota as we’ve been snowbirds for nine years and discovered things we didn’t know existed.

This was the best sightseeing tour we have ever taken !! Our guide, John, gave a terrific combination of personal and historic information. Try to go during the week when there isn’t as much traffic. The history and architecture of Sarasota is fascinating and John made it very enjoyable. Highly recommended
