Entertaining and Educational

Published on Feb, 2025

So enjoyed the entertaining and educational tour of the city of Sarasota. Jon was a delightful tour guide providing history from first settlers landing on the shore in the 1800s through today, sparkled with his charm and wit. Highly recommend :)

Great guided tour

Published on Jan, 2025

This tour of Sarasota did not disappoint. From the unique trolley bus, the fun tour director and excellent driver, we experienced a great overview of the Sarasota area. They introduced us to so many unique places with so many facts that we then took the time to explore the sights over the next few days.

Don’t miss this Sarasota Tour!

Our Guide Jon did a fabulous job of giving the history of Sarasota in a fun & informative way. Great tour, even if you think you know Sarasota. You learn about new places to check out, and things to do in Sarasota. I highly recommend this tour!

We had a lovely time Mike and John were amazing Driver and host. I would highly recommend it is especially if you haven’t been here before it gives you a nice oversight of the town plus wonderful restaurants to try out. My aunt and I stayed in siesta key but we wanted to check out the Sarasota area and though I live in Florida, I never knew some of the most interesting information that John had to give Mike was an excellent driver.
