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.

Щасливий гном
Ми зустрінемося на парковці The Gnome Craft Pub і зорієнтуємося в основах кінетичного життя Фіцджеральда. Звідти ми пройдемо тротуарами ряду житлових вулиць, оглянувши будинки та місця відпочинку Фіцджеральда. Ми зупинимося в парках, де грав Фіцджеральд, побачимо будівлю його колишньої школи, а також приватний клуб, до якого йому ніколи не дозволяли приєднатися. Прогулюючись, ви почуєте подробиці про дитинство автора в Сент-Полі та його подальше доросле життя. Наша приватна 2-годинна пішохідна петля поверне нас до початкової точки туру.

Doug was very friendly and knowledgeable about the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the Cathedral Hill neighborhood. He has a true passion for telling stories. We will definitely use him again the next time we are booking a tour in the area!

The F. Scott Fitzgerald walking tour in Saint Paul with Douglas Kline was one of the highlights of our visit to the twin cities. Douglas not only provided my wife and I with a detailed and lyrical portrait of F. Scott Fitzgerald as a boy and young man growing up in Saint Paul, but also thru various residences identified the social and familial influences that informed Fitzgerald’s coming of age as a writer. What we did not expect was Douglas Kline’s love of architecture and how he seamlessly wove into the narrative of our tour a unique and detailed insight into the architectural evolution of not only the homes F. Scott Fitzgerald lived in, but how the melding of architectural styles from home to home on Summit Avenue characterized the generational changes of Saint Paul writ large. Douglas Kline’s walking tour is an absolute must not only for F. Scott Fitzgerald enthusiasts, but for anyone who enjoys the company of a congenial and gracious guide whose thoughtful and eloquent acumen is not only revelatory but decidedly above all else inspired.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the blending of Fitzgerald history with the beautifully restored homes in his historic, boyhood neighborhood. Fitzgerald's fame and success can be tied to many of the locales we visited. Our exploration helped place his later life in context. Happy you liked the tour!
