A private tour is such a fun way to experience the various Tampa neighborhoods. James was super personable and a great guide, and was happy to accommodate our special requests. He was also very responsive in getting the tour arranged. Five stars from our small group!

I had no idea there were so many great places to see and explore in Tampa. Ybor City had such a New Orleans vibe. Who knew that chickens roam freely in Ybor City! The waterfront is so expansive and beautiful. We loved the area where food vendors are housed in colorful shipping shipping containers. Now that’s what I call a food court! Hyde Park is also beautiful. Exploring the backstreets of beautiful homes with expansive wrap around porches and gorgeous gardens was a highlight of the tour for us. Our driver James was excellent and went above and beyond to make our tour perfect in every way. Highly recommended !

April_D
