I had an amazing experience with Amigo Tours, and our guide, Jay, truly made it unforgettable. He was incredibly attentive, ensuring everyone in the group felt comfortable and included throughout the tour. Jay was also extremely informative, sharing fascinating details about the history, culture, and landmarks we visited in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand. My favorite part of the tour was visiting the Liberty Bell. Jay’s explanation of its historical significance and symbolism for freedom really brought it to life. His passion for sharing this piece of history made it even more meaningful, and I walked away with a much deeper appreciation for this iconic symbol. What stood out most was Jay’s kindness—he went out of his way to answer questions, offer assistance, and make sure everyone had the best experience possible. His dedication and genuine care for his guests were evident throughout. Thank you, Amigo Tours and Jay, for a fantastic and memorable journey. I would highly recommend this tour, especially to anyone with an interest in history and iconic landmarks!
