We highly recommend this tour! Steve was our guide and what a fun tour it was! As a local, he has extensive knowledge of Sarasota and entertained us with interest facts and stories about the historical, arts and cultural sites on our route around Sarasota. We got lots of ideas of what to do during our stay.

Dan was a good driver, kept us safe. Patrick was informative and knowledgeable about the area! My husband and I were new to the area and the history Patrick shared was great. It was worth it. Patrick was funny and you could tell he loved
Sarasota and he loved his job.
The only reason I did not give it a great rating is because the trolley was so uncomfortable. I barely made it the entire 90 minutes. A soft back would help.

We went on your tour yesterday, 2/13/26, at 1:00.
Our tour guide was very knowledgable and entertaining,so that was a big plus.
Our comfort level on the trolley was incredibly poor. I'm 5'9" and was stuck close to the back with the wheel well where my feet should have been, so I traveled for an hour and a half with my knees around my ears. There was a cushion for our bottom which was good, but the wood seat back dug into my back.
The trolley is a cute idea, but you need to make it more comfortable
