We took a beautiful stroll down childhood lane with this informative and fun tour. Rich, our genial, extremely knowledgeable guide, navigated us through the late Fred Rogers' career and life. From his birth, his musicianship, to his time at Rollins College, marriage, and worship through the trajectory of his television career. He had great stories to tell. This is an absolute gem of a tour.

Great and fun!
Our tour had to be rescheduled and they did their best and worked with our other activities so we could still attend the tour! We did the Mister Roger’s Tour. It was really fun and interesting. It was a nice walk in the area and we learned a lot of interesting facts. Our guide was friendly.

"Who knew...."
Starting with the Chamber of Commerce.. always a good starting point. They informed us about Rollins College( Mr. Rogers college which there is a status of him on campus)
Then a walk through real cute downtown area. The final experience was a great 90 minute boat ride in the 3 lakes that surround Winter Park.. all in all... a great visit

Super friendly and knowledgeable guide plus outstanding customer service.
The tour company, including Sarah, who was our guide, went out of their way to schedule a time that worked for my wife and I. She was super knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting and funny stories about Mr. Rogers, his life and the time he and his wife spent at Rollins College and elsewhere. It was just the right amount of walking. I would definitely encourage anyone who thinks they might be interested to visit both Rollins College and Winter Park. Both are beautiful.

I had no idea that Mr. Rogers had such a connection to Winter Park.
It was a delight to take this tour and to walk in the footsteps of Fred Rogers. It was interesting to learn why he chose Rollins College. And to learn that it was here where this quiet man was initially encouraged to perform on stage. If you are in Winter Park, take this tour, and imagine Fred strolling in front of the shops while courting a young pianist name JoAnn, talking of their future together. How simple, and yet how important, to be someone’s neighbor.

I love Mr. Rogers even more now!
Who knew behind those sneakers and handmade sweaters was a man who skinny-dipped, hated going to the doctor and proposed to his wife in a letter? Mister Rogers was a legend, but he was also human, and this tour captured it perfectly. The stories about his not always happy childhood to his knack for knowing how to relate to the little ones makes this tour a must when visiting Winter Park.
