When traveling, we like to learn about the area we are in, as well as getting an idea of where things are; having a private tour guide is a wonderful way to experience a town or city.

Wendi was fantastic. She really focused the tour on our wants, including stopping for specialty food when we wanted, allowing us time to shop along the way, and listening to our feedback to change the tour as we went along. She also showed us some great hidden gems!
