This is the best tour we have ever taken. We have done Viator tours all over the world and this is the best. Our guide grew up the son of a local lobster fisherman and worked the waterfront since he was a teenager. He knew and clearly explained in a manner we could understand everything about the lobster business, processing and marketing. Plus since he knew everyone by name we were able to go inside facilities where the normal public is not allowed. Highly recommended.
Peter was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable and personable. We got a good understanding of the fish and lobster industry past and present. The pace was leisurely and Peter kept us engaged with lively commentary as we moved through the wharf/docks area of the city. Finishing up with an authentic lunch at the ISF lunchroom was perfect.
We had a great time! It ended up just being the two of us and our guide, Alie. She was extremely knowledgeable and had an answer to all our questions. The walk was easy and showed a lot of cool and historic sites. Lunch was fun too, some fresh uni and sushi! Alie was great and we really enjoyed our day!
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share this with us! The Working Waterfront tour is such a pride and joy for us; Portland's history as a true working town is integral to what it is now, and it's something we're incredibly proud to showcase. Alie is so great at highlighting it and we're so happy to hear you had a good time with her on the tour. Thanks for joining!
We took this tour during a recent visit to Portland. The downtown meeting area was very convenient to many hotels, including ours. Our guide, Elise, met us on time and we learned that we'd be the only two guests. Elise did a great job. She's a high school history teacher so had a great deal of knowledge about Portland and its history. She showed us a variety of things in the downtown area that relate to the history of the waterfront and its current operations. This included a tour of the fish auction pier. We concluded with a very nice bowl of chowder and we appreciated the "pivot" from sushi since we don't eat raw fish. We had a great time and highly recommend this tour.
Than you so much for taking the time to share this! Elise is second to none when it comes to knowledge of Portland and passion for sharing it with others (perks of being a history teacher!), and her ability to pivot to ensure a fun tour is what makes her a fantastic guide. We're glad you had fun, and thank you so much for joining us!
This was a fantastic view into the fishing industry that has defined Portland from its inception. ..
Thanks for joining us on the Working Waterfront tour! Portland's history as a true working coastal town is integral to what it is today and we're always thrilled to be able to highlight that part of the history/culture today. We're glad to hear you had a fun time on the tour!
Eric gives an amazinging and informative walking tour of the old warfare area of Portland. You get an up close and personal stroll through the working areas from someone who has been here and done it. Very interactive, and ends with a delicious taste of the fresh products the local water waters have to offer. Definitely worth doing.
We're so glad you had a good time on the Working Waterfront tour! As a born and raised Portland local, Eric's knowledge of the history is second to none and we know much he enjoys being able to showcase Portland's significant working waterfront. Thanks for joining, and we hope to see you again soon!
Eric was a wonderful tour guide. If you want to learn more about Maine's fishing industry from an insider, this one's for you. The side quest to the Japanese processing facility was a real hidden gem. He patiently answered all of our questions and made this one of our favorite tours ever!
We're so happy to hear you had a good time on the waterfront tour! Portland's history as a working waterfront is something we feel is tremendously important to preserve so we're always honored and thrilled to do this tour. And Eric's knowledge of it all is truly astounding. Thanks for joining us!
Tom gave an excellent tour. He took us on a very interesting tour learning about the waterfront and the fish industry, learning and seeing the process of how fish are caught and the process that gets them to our tables. A very unique and enjoyable stop for a bite to eat that fit in with the history of the waterfront. It ended with an enjoyable stop at a local pub to sample one of their fine ales. This tour is recommended.
We're so glad to hear you had a good time on the Working Waterfront tour! Portland's history as a coastal shipping/fishing town is incredibly rich and we're so grateful to have Tom share it with folks. His knowledge and passion are extensive and we're so happy you got to join him for a day of sightseeing. Hope to see you again soon!
Eric was very informative and showed his love of the area would highly recommend this tour
Thanks so much for the kind words! Having grown up here, Eric's knowledge and love for Portland are second to none, so we're happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour with him. And to end the tour with some local chowder is even better!
