Fun and Worth It All

Our guide was great! She was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The food on the tour was more than I imagined. It was a great way to enjoy refreshments on the walk while taking in the history. I very highly recommend it.

Squire Marcos was our guide and he was outstanding! Our friend who is a bit of a history buff was really impressed with his knowledge and presentation. It was lots of fun as well as being very informative.

We had a great time on the walking tour through the historic district. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. His excitment for the history of Annapolis was obvious and was contagious to our group! I have lived in the area 15 years and had never experienced downtown Annapolis in such a fun and educational way. I absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!

Great time!

What a great time we had! I was hosting my mother and father from AZ where we are all from. I live in Carroll County Maryland since January of 2008 and have visited Annapolis several times with my husband who is from here. I would never have been able to share Annapolis with my family quite the same way. Also took an infant in a stroller and the guide was very accomodating and helpful! 5 Stars!! I'll definitely return with more visitors!

Entertaining, easy walk
Sun, Sep 7  2:30 PM marshabirnba Female 60-69 Local Family Without Children
The tour is valuable for flavor and background information. Includes facts that you wouldn't easily find published. I would have apprecitated more building interiors in addition to gardens. The State House was closed. Maybe I should return! I most wanted to go inside it and the Naval Chapel which is not included.

I was full from the history lesson...not the food

i have been on several food tours in NYC and have a formed a baseline for my expectations for the Annapolis food tour. and i can honestly say, the food was subpar. first off, my gf and i where the only two people on the tour. so it was a more one on one experience with the tour guide. Our guide, "squire" james was very friendly and helpful. he was definitely a very knowledgeable in the area and was very fun to hang out with. my gf and i had a blast joking around and taking about each others personal lives. the various tour stops along the way were nice mix of both historic locations and more modern tourist spots. food wise..i thought it was sub par. first we had some ice coffee and some book store/cafe. nothing special. then some fried crab balls at some tavern. (ehh..it was so so). then some gelato (bleh...i was getting sick from all the weird food in my belly). the some crab dip at philips (food was so so...bread was kinda stale...they gave us nice souvenir glasses). had some fried coconut shrimp (nothing special). had some more ice cream (was getting sick from all the weird food combos) my 2 cents...dont go expecting a great meal from it...we ended up getting beers and burgers afterwords which was 100x better then everything we ate before this. the historic tour of the city was worth it...so feeding us along the way was a decent bonus.

A great way to experience Annapolis
Sat, Aug 23  11:00 AM ajrrn12 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
I highly recommend the Annapolis Food and History Walking Tour. The tour gives visitors an excellent overview of the city's history and architecture with plenty of stops along the way for refreshment and samples of the local quisine. Our guide, Mistress Susan, was very personable and accomodating.

Fun way to spend a summer day in Annapolis!
Thu, Aug 21  11:00 AM Bucknams4 Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
Marco was a great historian and docent, we loved all of the food, it is our second time taking this tour, there was plenty to eat for a lunch. Recommend that the guide have some advertisement or handout to give to interested gawkers--maybe a logo on your leather pouch so others know how to take the tour. We liked the two new seafood additions to the tour but we also miss the popovers from last summer. Keep up the great work, see you next summer!

Wear Comfortable Walking Shoes
Sat, Aug 9  11:00 AM msveebee Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
enjoyed tour; would have enjoyed it more if everyone had been wearing comfortable walking shoes; we were late arriving at many of the stops which caused mild confusion for the stop owners.

Exceeded expectations, excellent value
Fri, Aug 1  11:00 AM timjohnston Male Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Highly recommend to others. The quality of the tour was largely due to our guide, who was top-notch and courteous, not a dull moment on the entire tour. My wife and myself (form PA) were joined by another couple (from GA) and our guide (5 total in group). Did not feel rushed at any time on the tour. Immediately impressed with warm reception by guide at meeting place, the audio receiver and earpiece provided (necessity when walking thru town), courtesy bottled water and coffee. Tour office surervisor checked two times to make sure everyone was satisfied. Each destination was ready for our arrival and all involved were very friendly and open to questions. Food / drink samples at various eating establishments were great. We returned to Irish restaurant across from State House for lunch following day. Will return to restaurant at Maryland Inn again in future for popovers. Two suggestions for improvement: 1) Provide larger bag at beginning of tour to hold bottled water and misc. trinkets provided by restuarants along the tour; and, 2) add color coded depiction of historic landmark plaques on map handout with key / legend to show time period. In the words of our guide, Marco, all of the above Tis True, Tis True!

Easy History with delicious sidebar

Truly enjoyable walking tour with lots of historical stories and locations. Then we had numerous stops for crab balls, crab dip, popovers, cabbage rolls, ice cream, gelato (two separate stops), etc. Personable and charming guide. Loved the historical drinking toasts provided. Highly recommend tour.

A Great Start to Our Vacation!
Fri, Jul 18  10:30 AM kcarey01 Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our guide, Squire Buffington, was easily recognizable in his colonial attire; he was prompt and professional, but friendly and immediately put us at ease. He entertained and informed us, sharing his passion for both historical and contemporary aspects of the historic district. We are folks that like to ask questions and Squire Buffington welcomed them and answered knowledgeably. There were only five people in our group which allowed lots of interaction with our guide. He also provided helpful tips for other activities we had planned during our stay in Annapolis. This tour exceeded our expectations and was time and money well-spent!
