Excellent overview of Annapolis and its history

The tour provides an excellent introduction to Annapolis' historic district. Our guide, Marcus, was very knowledgeable and extremely personable. The tour length was just right: long enough to see and learn alot, but not too long where some (particularly children) might lose interest.

When I signed up for the tour it was so that my 9 year old son Alex could learn a little local history. As it turns out my children and I were the only ones on the tour. I told our tour guide, a wonderful man named Gary, to please gear the tour at Alex. As it turns out Gary is a homeschool teacher and he was more than happy to oblige. He and Alex had a wonderful time, as a matter of fact Alex has recommended the tour to his friends. He told them he learned a lot AND it was cool! High praise from a 9 year old. He has also asked when we are going to do another one. I recommend the tour, and to anyone with children I recommend gary as your tour guide.

Nice Tour Guide and A Wonderful Walk Around Town

Our tour guide was wonderful: knowledgeable, intelligent, and interesting. He showed a grand knowledge of history and Annapolis and pointed out details in building construction that would have been missed. The tour was the highlight of our visit.

Depends on the guide

We went on the 10:30am tour on 07/30. The scenary and weather was beautiful. We were very dissappointed in the knowledge and storytelling of our guide. She was very unsure and stalled often (she was also very quiet). We realized she was new and still in training because there was a trainer who accompanied her and prompted her at some points. However, she needed much more guidance and training before being put in front of the public. We could tell the other guide was very knowledgable and entertaining and we would have thoroughly enjoyed our tour with him. We were only in Annapolis for the morning for that specific tour while passing through Maryland, so it was a let down.

The tour was excellent. My husband and I were hosting his parents and brother who are not from Maryland. We wanted them to do something other than the tratitional day trop to DC and learn a about local history in MD. Annapolis is beautiful and the tour helped give a great introduction to the city.

This is a terrific tour -- not too long, not too short. Especially good for people who are just spending the day in Annapolis and want to explore on their own as well. We had an excellent, personable guide named Elise. She was very knowledgeable regarding the historical facts but kept the mood light and fun -- not dry and boring.

The guide was great and had an impressive depth of knowledge - for every question we asked, he had a detailed answer. Also he had a great sense of humor and kept us in stitches! Would recommend this to anyone.

I have lived in Annapolis for 7 years and never done the tour. My friend was visiting from FL so we signed up. I have not stopped talking about the historical content and its delivery. It was fascinating. Thank you so much. It will not be the last tour I take, in fact as soon as I can arrange it, my husband will be your next customer.(along with me)! Great tour, delivered in a wonderfully , interesting way.
