This was an incredible hour and a half! Our guide, Jerome Chesley, a local artist, knew the subject so thoroughly and shared just the right amount with easy enthusiasm that was a pleasure to listen to! I've been on several other tours where Siggy was the same jovial fun driver. Like other tours I have been on with Discover SRQ, this was fabulous! Long enough, yet short enough and packed with interesting Sarasota facts and tidbits.

Awesome tour. Our tour guide, Jerome, was great! The trolley driver, Siggi was very cautious as he traveled to and from each destination. I would recommend Discover Sarasota Tours to all.

The University Park Women's Club first social event of the season, the Trolley Tour of Sarasota's Public Art, was very well received. Both the owner of Discover Sarasota, Tammy Hauser, and Jerry Chesley, the art historian, were very knowledgeable and accommodating. Picking us up at our country club and dropping off 3 members downtown to attend a funeral was really appreciated! A party atmosphere while obtaining knowledge is an absolute winner!
