It was a good tour taking you throughout the areas that had circus history I mostly liked the information Bob gave us on the Ringling family and their contributions that started the interest in Sarasota

Hello Trippers, So much history of the Ringling Circus! Don't miss the private Art that John Ringling acquired in the separate art museum. The Ca' d'Zan mansion was so beautiful and opulent. We only did the first floor of the Ca' d'Zan mansion due to the steps required (80) to see the other floors, but it was on par with the Biltmore Estate in Asheville. The Howard Circus, a miniature circus in the museum is incredible and very very intricate and brought back so many childhood memories. Do not miss this attraction. Enjoy, Deb
