| Once again, we had a wonderful tour with our capital city colonials guide. Every time a family member or friend comes into town, my husband and I take them on this walking tour . Our guests are always impressed with the guide's depth of knowledge of Annapolis and US history. Even after taking the tour a few times, I learn something new. Our visitors always tell us that this was a highlight of their trip and enjoy the leisurely stroll through downtown Annapolis. I highly recommend this tour for history buffs, tourists and Annapolitans alike. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| We enjoyed our walk around historic Annapolis. Our tour guide, Kelsey Swensen was interesting and informative. It was well worth the time and the cost. |

| 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. |
