Booking on line was easy…checking in either Susan felt like a concierge experience. Tour guide Bob not only knew his stuff, but his photos and stories brought the circus to life!
Glad you enjoyed the whole experience!
Fun and interesting, Pat is an entertaining and informative guide, this tour exceeded my expectations!
Our guide, Bob, was very knowledgeable about the history of the Ringling family and the Circus. We saw many interesting sites connected to the Circus and he explained how the Ringlings helped to develop Sarasota in the early 1900's
The tour was very interesting and a lot of insight into the history of the Sarasota circus The tour guide was very interactive with the tourists and shared his experiences being involved in the Circus.
Discover Sarasota Tours offers several great options for exploring beautiful Sarasota and its history, including the importance of the circus to the city's development. For all of the company's tour options, the guides are engaging and knowledgeable, the drivers are skilled, and all of the staff are friendly and helpful. I'm looking forward to trying the Amish experience next.
I've lived in Sarasota 25 years, never though I'd take a tour of Sarasota but am happy I did. Bob is an entertaining, informative speaker having worked for the Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey circus. The driver John was very pleasant, check-in was cordial, all making for a delightful afternoon.
Thank you! Our tours are intended for locals and visitors and we find everyone always learns new things and has fun!
What a fascinating tour. Bob is so knowledgeable and has such a clear and good-humored delivery. Even though I live in Sarasota, those circus secrets were a surprise. A really nice way to spend time, and Michael gave is a good ride.
What a great tour with guide Bob Collins. The area was the home of the Ringling Brothers Circus, and their is so much history locally that was tied to the circus operations and the people who were involved. Bob has a wealth of knowledge that he shares and he made the tour fun and very interesting!
