Pat and Chris gave an excellent overview about Sarasota's history, neighborhoods, arts, dining, shopping, and other must do activities. They are funny and engaging. The tour van was great, especially with the heat and rain (It's summer in Florida). I enjoyed to hear about the history of Sarasota and their love for this wonderful city. Although I am living in the vicinity for a while and working in Sarasota for a couple of month now, I never really explored it. I am so glad I did this tour! For tourists of Sarasota, I would recommend to do this tour at the beginning of your visit, so you can dive into this "lively" city and their many activities. Thank you Pat and Chris

This was a great tour. We have been to Sarasota a number of times but we learned so much more about the city on this tour. Our guide Pat was informative and amusing and the driver Chris added to the experience. We highly recommend this tour.

We all had a blast touring Sarasota and its surroundings with Pat and Chris. They know and love their city and we much enjoyed their enthusiasm and jokes! The shuttle bus was comfortable (accommodating 9 people) the meeting location convenient (no parking issue!!!) and if you need a small souvenir the gift store/meeting point offers a cute selection! Overall very satisfied and would recommend this tour to start your visit of Sarasota :)
