Discovering Ybor city’s rich history
Max was our guide for the Ybor city tour yesterday and he was absolutely fantastic. The tour lasted 2 hours and was an easy walk around the city.
Through Max’s vivid descriptions, we could picture the streets as they once were and understand how Ybor city became the cigar capital of the world. His knowledge of the area’s history was exceptional and his passion for the stories and the people who shaped Ybor city made the tour unforgettable.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide

Great Value!
Charlie was great. He knew lots of info. Had no idea Ybar city was known for its cigars. $35/person is a great value. It was only my husband and I on the tour at 11 am. Ended up being a private tour, which was amazing.

Hot fun in the city
Max is awesome. He told us a lot of info and brought us around Ybor for a little less than 2 hours. We had fun because max is a great speaker and kept it interesting. Totally doing the ghost tour when it cools down a bit more!
