We are local to the area, but were interested in learning more about our hometown, so we booked a tour. Tim was exceptional in his professionalism and knowledge. He presented the information in a very easy to understand format. The tour was efficient, but not rushed. We learned many new facts about the streets we see every day and it was a very pleasant way to enjoy an afternoon. Highly recommend if you are local or visiting!
