We chose to go on the tour on our first full day of the trip and we are so glad we did! Chris our bus driver was great and Pat our tour guide was phenomenal! Their back and forth was hilarious, the jokes were clean, and the history was interesting! We also got a ton of tips on the best places to visit, eat, and shop in the area! Definitely recommend!

My husband and I and our 20-something daughter truly enjoyed this tour of Sarasota. We are first-time visitors of the city and it was great to have this overview of such a beautiful and historic city. The tour headquarters has a lovely and fun little gift shop (with restroom) to look around in while waiting for the tour to start. Before leaving on the tour we were all offered cold bottles of water, which were really welcome on a hot day. Our guides Jon and Chris made it such a truly enjoyable trip! There was something for everyone on the tour—history, personal stories, views of spectacular buildings and homes and cultural venues. We made mental notes of restaurants, shops and other places to go back to. Thank you Jon and Chris for sharing your great knowledge and love of this city with us! We really enjoyed it!
