The electric bus was very comfortable and the view from the main hill is fantastic. Enjoy the history and fun facts along the famous houses tour up and down the main road around Avalon. Why is Chicago associated with this island? Did Mrs. O'Leary's cow start both fires? Get the true story on the bus.

I'm sure this tour is outstanding- but I wouldn't know because i didn't take the tour- even if i bought my tickets. No where on the Viator ticket did it tell me that I still need to reserve tickets with the tour company. It says on my confirmation that the tour company will accept my paper ticket or view on my phone- no where does it says that I need to take my confirmation to the tour company, and trade it in for actual tickets. We arrived that day, and all the tours were sold out. The fault is not with the tour company, but with Viator for not informing me that i still needed to contact the tour company for my tickets.

Our guide, Laura, has lived here 50 years. She had a lot of good stories, comments and info. Quick way to get a good overview, plus some good photos ops... Worth it.
