It was a really great tour! Super interesting and fun. Our tour guide, Max, told us a lot about the history of Tampa and the many different types of people that have lived here through the years. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, it was wonderful!

See the historic site of Fort Brooke, where Presidents Andrew Jackson and Zachary Taylor would fight the Seminoles in their military years. The beautiful “Plant Hall” where Henry B. Plant competed dollar for dollar with Henry Flagler for elegance. As well as the Hotel Floridan Palace, The Tampa Theatre, and many more. Come along a 90-minute stroll through the shade and learn why Tampa is one of the most unique cities in America.

Joe is a fantastic tour guide! Learned many details about the early community and the novel employee advances established in Ybor.

The tour guide walked us through the downtown Tampa area and provided information on the history and significance of a variety of sites. The tour was okay but clearly the guide had memorized the script and his knowledge of Tampa did not go much beyond that.

We very much enjoyed the tour. Max was wonderful talking about Tampa history. He had a lot of information on the area and was quite personable and engaging. Definitely an interesting tour and you learn so many interesting things than if you were just walking around on your own.
