We had such a lovely, informative tour. Amanda was so knowledgeable and really loves what she is doing. My husband is not really a big fan of tours, but he loved this one.
This was a great tour! Guide was knowledgeable and offers suggestions of other things to do in the area.
We all loved this tour. Amanda gave us so many details about the berth of Wilmington and the architecture of the homes. For the price, I think the length of time of the tour was perfect. I highly recommend this tour.
Very good tour. Learned a lot about the history of Wilmington and how it grew into the city it is today. The tour guide was very informative and friendly. Highly recommend.
WE WERE WITH A LADY OPERATOR WHO OWNED THE CO. SHE WAS A HISTORY MAJOR, WENT TO COLLEGE THERE. BOOKED VIA VIATOR:- Amanda Leese. Very knowledgeable historically, culturally and architecturally about the history of this lumber and cotton center. the only issue we had was her constant reference to "white supremacy" in describing how the sitting Negro population was ousted from office and in many cases purged from the city. while historically accurate what was not in vogue was the term which today conjures up a very different set of facts, emotions and prejudices. I suggest she describe the historical event and NOT inject 2020 liberal politics--it was not difficult to guess where she was coming from!! I did not tip her!
white supremacists DID oust our black population after an election in 1898 in the country's only ever coup d'etat and a subsequent massacre. these are the terms used historically and in literature .please read the book Wilmington's Lie for all of the details. You made a conclusion about my personal politics that are not accurate.
I love walking and history but Amanda really blew us away! She is so knowledgeable and passionate about her work preserving and sharing the history of Wilmington. She had great stories and was very fluid in her sharing of historical events. I'd do it again for sure! What a great little city!
thank you so much for joining me for the tour ! our city is fascinating!
Terrific tour, terrific guide. Wilmington has quite an interesting history and a lovely historical district.
thanks for the great review . I am glad you had fun.
She is very attention, answered all questions and showed us that she has knowledge of the town. I think everyone should take this tour if visiting the town the first time.
I could not agree more ! thank you for joining me .
