Visite privée à pied de St. Paul Life & Homes de F. Scott Fitzgerald (2 heures)

Aperçu
For 2 hours, you'll enjoy a private, guided walk in a historic, charming neighborhood of St. Paul, Minnesota, as you stroll past the birthplace, homes and haunts of F. Scott Fitzgerald, the famous author of "The Great Gatsby" and other notable American novels. While we walk, you'll learn about Fitzgerald's lively life and the Roaring '20s, and also hear anecdotes about his hometown shenanigans. In addition, while we amble, residential architecture buffs will be able to spot many types of popular Victorian home styles in this historically preserved area.

Le Gnome heureux
Nous nous rencontrerons sur le parking du Gnome Craft Pub et nous nous familiariserons avec les bases de la vie cinétique de Fitzgerald. De là, nous nous dirigerons le long des trottoirs d'un ensemble de rues résidentielles tout en découvrant les maisons et les lieux de rencontre de Fitzgerald. Nous ferons une pause dans les parcs où Fitzgerald a joué, verrons son ancien bâtiment scolaire ainsi que le club social privé qu'il n'a jamais été autorisé à rejoindre. En marchant, vous entendrez des détails sur l'enfance de l'auteur à Saint-Paul et sur sa vie d'adulte ultérieure. Notre boucle de marche privée de 2 heures nous ramènera au point de départ de la visite.

Doug was an exceptionally friendly and helpful host. He gave us wonderful tips about what to see and do during our stay in the Twin Cities, for which we’re grateful. Be sure to start your trip with him in order to benefit from his knowledge. The tour itself was a pleasant walk through the lovely neighborhoods Fitzgerald haunted. The information was pretty basic (especially considering the cost) and the delivery unpracticed, presumably because it’s a new tour. I would recommend Doug’s other tour on Summit Ave’s Victorian homes instead, as he seemed more knowledgeable about that subject and knows the area well. The Fitzgerald tour should be more polished in a year or so.

David, it was my pleasure to guide you and Geoff and I’m happy that the dining and the what-to-do suggestions worked well. My goal is to help make sure your entire stay in the Twin Cities is memorable. Your perceptions about our tour together are spot-on; I appreciate your insight and feedback. Thanks again for engaging! Please look me up when you are next in Minnesota. Thank you.

Thank you, Paul! I enjoyed our adventure and hope you and Debbie are warm back in California after your surprisingly cool spring week in Minnesota. You saw it all during our day together – yesterday’s history plus today’s new history unfolding around us as we toured. Very memorable. Thank you!

Thank you, Jessica. Your group was both interested and interesting, with some great perceptions about F. Scott Fitzgerald's crazy life. I look forward to future tours with your organization's members, and that includes "Esther" the lovable dog that accompanied us.
