My husband and I did the Skyway and afternoon snacks tour last Monday. It was our first time in Minneapolis and it was a great introduction to the city! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the city. We enjoyed the tour of the skyway walks (something we would never have been able to do on our own!) and the snack stops were very good! We would highly recommend this tour as a great intro to the city!
