Minneapolis & St. Paul Highlights Private Riding & Walking Tour (3 hrs)

Overview

We'll connect at a location convenient for you and launch a 3-hour private riding & walking tour of Minneapolis & St. Paul that focuses on local culture, interesting history and what it's like to live today in the Twin Cities. We'll explore famous landmarks and discover little-known spots. I'll share stories and exclusive anecdotes that will bring your private experience alive.

In town for a limited time? Have an open half-day during your visit? This professionally guided private tour is for you.

It's a great way to experience the highlights and get an overall feel for the cities in a fun and entertaining way. Many guests use this experience to become oriented so they can return later on their own to deeply explore favorite locales.

Transportation for this tour is provided in a professionally chauffeured "black car" sedan or SUV.

The Mill City Museum and surrounding River Front were Awesome!! The Intercontinental Hotel Riverfront is nice inside but not comfortable walking around outside. Enjoyed touring the state capital bldg and Minnesota History Museum.

I loved traveling with Douglas and learning about twin cities. Highly recommend him if you want to get details of the twin cities and are visiting for the first time. Douglas is very knowledgeable and knows the city in and out.

Thank you! I’m glad we were able to add some special stops to your itinerary. Your son (happy 15th birthday!) especially seemed to enjoy our discoveries. Best wishes to him during the upcoming tournament!

Douglas was super in narrating the history of twin cities and giving us recommendations on what else we can do in our free time. I did not feel like we were meeting him for the first time - he was friendly and knowledgeable. He even connected with my 15-year-old. Douglas, thanks for taking us around and making it a great experience.
