Pretty Good But Some Additional Topic Sensitivities Needed - Educated tour guide but too much sarcasm and discussion of drinking. Should be more sensitive to varying backgrounds on the topic. Largely ignored the enslaved people’s market sign and noting the plaque located on King’s Street marking the first sitin at the lunch counter, beginning the Civil Rights Era.

Cliff notes please - The Guide provided too much detail at every stop. He should learn that his guest would like the highlights not a long winded history lesson.
