Great Learning Experience

Came out looking for something to do on a Friday night, had never gone to these tours before and super glad my first one was with these guys. Matt had great energy and did an excellent job with his storytelling, navigating our group through the streets, and being friendly with everyone in the group. Not sure how big these groups normally are, when we went it was about 8 people which felt like a decent size to make sure everyone can hear and feel included. The cost definitely felt worth the price for the length of time it took to get through each location and hear about the local lore. Absolutely recommend!
