This tour was a great overview of the Kenosha waterfront, sculpture garden, and downtown. Matti was very knowledgeable about the area's history, architecture, local storefronts, and local attractions. He offers to emphasize topics based on customers' interests. Matti offers flexible scheduling and a reasonable price. I highly recommend it.

My husband and I recently went on this walking tour of downtown Kenosha. There were so many places to see and wonderful historical facts to be learned. We had a great time and our guide, Robert, was filled with historical facts about buildings, street art, murals and much more. I highly recommend giving this a try.
