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.

Doug was excellent! We learned so much about the area and had a great time doing it. Our group is 14, 54, and 79 and there was something for all of us. Our 79 yr old is not so mobile and Doug and his driver were patient and kind. Strongly recommend!

Thank you! We had a great time together, and I enjoyed guiding both your mom and your son with stories that both would enjoy. A very fun trio! Have fun at the Paris Olympics!

We are all from Minnesota but decided to take two of our grandkids, age 12, on a tourn of the Twin Cities. Our tour guide did a fantastic job of giving us facts that were fun and interesting. He engaged the kids in all of the information. They were asking questions and guessing answers to his.

What a great day we had with Doug! We drove all through Minneapolis - St. Paul. Doug was agreeable to stop & see the interiors of the places WE were interested in. We learned so much about the history and the culture of the area. Jeff was a great driver - who threw in a few factoids, too. :) Doug was also flexible to meeting our needs as far as walking abilities, which was helpful. All in all a wonderful day. Highly recommended!!
