2 Heures | Visite à pied des histoires cachées de Portland

Aperçu
Meet Portland and the people—of all backgrounds and identities—whose wit and grit have made Maine's largest city what it is today. Your locally-raised guide will captivate you with extraordinary, exciting, and surprising stories largely left out of the history books. Get ready to broaden your sense of what Portland and Maine have been and could be.

Brick sidewalks beneath your feet and beautiful Victorian-era buildings nestled around you, we'll casually stroll Portland’s lush, historic Old Port toward the sparkling waters of Casco Bay. We’ll see where Indigenous Wabanaki leaders made their earliest relationships with European colonizers and walk together through the centuries.

Enjoy an inclusive, empowering, and surprising constellation of tales that offers a welcome contrast to the more obvious themes you’re likely to experience on other tours. You'll enjoy 2 hours of narration over a 1.5-mile route with owner and guide, Dugan Murphy. He is Portland's top-rated guide on TripAdvisor!

We recently took this tour on a girls trip to Portland and it was one of the best parts of our itinerary. I am a huge history nerd and purchased the tour as a Christmas gift for my three friends on the trip with me and it was well worth the money. Dugan is a fantastic tour guide, I can definitely see why he is so well ranked! We asked a variety of questions on the material and his answers were informative each time. We also really appreciated his commitment to including stories about the influence that women have played in the history of Portland. I would definitely recommend adding one of Dugan’s tours to your Portland itinerary!

I'm always excited to meet a fellow history nerd, especially one who can appreciate forgotten female figures getting the credit they are due. Thank you for including my tour in your itinerary and thank you for taking the time to write out a review!

My husband and I live in Portland and figured it was time we took a tour of our own home city. We love taking walking tours in cities we visit. Dugan’s was by far the best we’ve experienced. We’d heard great things about the Portland by the Foot tour and it did not disappoint. Dugan’s knowledge & obvious passion about history was engaging, insightful, and highly entertaining. I was not interested in history throughout my early schooling years, but had Dugan been my history teacher, I would’ve appreciated history at a much earlier age, and it was fun to experience it with him today. 10/10 would recommend! Looking forward to doing the Women in Portland and Black History tours in the future.
