A must do!!!!

This was an amazing tour of the historic Greek district led by an authentic member of the community. Her engaging stories brought the history to life as we explored her family's rich culture.

Disappointment

This tour was shorter than advertised- being about an hour and 10 minutes. It consisted of walking approximately 2 - 3 blocks. It appeared that the owner/normal tour guide (of Greek descent) was not available to lead the tour so I feel that we missed out on a much richer tour. It was billed as “A Tour of the Docks” but we spent very little time at the docks. I feel that we may have been able to gain as much knowledge by reading a self guided tour brochure.

Immersion learning

Do not hesitate to take this tour without it we never wound have learned so much about the Greek immigration, the earlier years of their life here and immense knowledge about sponges! Our guide had deep family ties to the area and could bring memories of her childhood into the experience. Highly recommend.

Sponges, Greek life and personal tour.

It was so fantastic for us to get a personal tour of the sponge docks. Krisula was able to share her family’s experience in arriving in Tarpon Springs and making an impact. We had a grand time, drank strong, Greek coffee, and learned about the sponge industry. Highly recommend her anytime.

We had fun! Krisula was genuine, warm and knowledgeable. I am someone who wants to know the background of the people and the history of the region so I can really relate to what I am experiencing.

Krisula, was an amazing tour guide. She was so knowledgeable. She made the day fun sharing all her stories about the history of the town, her family and her life living and growing up in Tarpon Springs. The tour of the docks and touching all the specific sponges was fabulous😎
