Capital City Colonials

Our guide was knowledgeable and interesting, and even gave us extra time. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Carolyn was a wonderful guide who showed us the historic sites with enthusiasm. It is very apparent how much she loves Annapolis. She was very knowledgeable and made it an interesting afternoon for our group of four. I would highly recommend this tour to friends.

We would recommend Susan's tour to all comers. Do this one first. That way you get to sample the decor and food of various restaurants. Make your reservations later. All venues were extremely welcoming as well a passers- by on the sidewalks. (Watch out for uneven bricks) Several locals invited us into their homes as well. It happened to be the annual Croquet Match weekend...What a Hoot! We detoured a block to the edge of St. John's campus due to a fire across the street from our Irish Cabbage Rolls stop. Amazing how those fire trucks negotiate the narrow streets. We were not able to sample there but the tour was great anyway. The "ear buds" are a good idea too as well as the easily read map and discount coupons provided at the end of the tour.

This tour was very enjoyable. The food samples were delicious with a nice variety and the history of the area was very interesting. Susan, our tour guide, was very friendly. I would highly recommend this tour if you have never been to Annapolis. The transistor ear pieces were great so that we didn't miss any of the tour as our guide was often walking ahead of us to our next stop.

Gary was great and really really informative. He went out of his way to make sure that we had a good time.

Gary did an excellent job of leading this tour - he is exceptionally knowledgeable, enthusiastic and involved all members of our family. He was able to keep the interest of all members of our family (which is not an easy thing to do) by asking some questions of our children appropriate for their level of interest and education. At the other end of the spectrum he also easily kept the interest of my wife and myself who are both history buffs. The tour ran long and that was a good thing and only did so because of the detailed descriptions Gary was able to provide as well as his through responses to questions. It made it that much more enjoyable for me to have a guide who so thoroughly enjoys his work that he isn't concerned about taking longer than the allotted time. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has even a slight interest in history and architecture. Thank you for a great tour.

Mary, our guide was informative and answered all of our questions. The walk was pleasant and the historical information was most interesting. Great for a nice over view of the area. Enjoyed the opportunity to go into the capital building.

Our tour was great. The guide was amazing, funny, informative and helpful. He did a fantastic job and did not merely go through the motions. It was a great tour, history lesson, and all around great experience. If we ever make it back to Annapolis, we will undoubtedly do this tour again!

I sincerely enjoyed this tour! We learned so much about the city's history. We came home and recommended it to ALL our friends!

My wife and I spent the weekend in Annapolis in Nov. 2009. We decided to learn about the city and eat some food as well. The tour was very informative and fun. The leader, Susan was fantastic and very personable and fun. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to learn some neat things about Annapolis history and just have a fun experience.

We were initially hesitant to book a walking tour with a family of reluctant teenage boys in tow. Our guide, Marco, was able to keep us all interested and engaged. We had no idea there was so much history in Annapolis (and one of our sons attends school there!) He gave us anecdotal tidbits that we would have never been able to get on our own. He whetted our appetite to do tours of the houses we visited. The price is very reasonable. The tour very organized. The guide very knowledgeable. For a great meal afterwards, try the Galway Bay Irish restaurant!

Our 1.75 hour tour started and ended on time. There was a good balance between historical facts and and anecdotes about the people of the times. Our tour guide was very personable and knowledgeable.

Not as much of the capital and too much looking at old houses!

As someone who had never been to MD, the history learned was very much appreciated. Annapolis is a wonderful city and our tour guide, Gary, was very knowledgable. We were extremely happy we had gone on a "guided" tour. The price was right and we saw things we never would have found on our own.

We were in Annapolis for our anniversary and this tour was a fun way to see the city. Our tour guides were great and seemed to be having a lot of fun doing their jobs!
