Excellent Walking Tour - Our tour guide was Hannah and she was so enjoyable to work with. She did a great job telling us about art, culture, industry, history, sports, and fun facts about Charlotte. It was a very relaxing tour and the walk was easy with stopping points for education.

A great tour! - Our guide was Hannah and she was very friendly and took lots of great photos of the group members. She had great information about the uptown area and gave us a souvenir at the end. The walk was not too difficult but it is mostly uphill.

Queen City Tour - Hannah was amazing and led the tour with great insight. Settlers Cemetery was very interesting. I didn’t know it existed. The tour was a walking tour but good pace. Felt unrushed.

Hannah is enthusiastic and delightful. - Hannah was excellent. She was excited to bring the history to her guests and engaged the adults and especially the children. One child was a wizard that seemed to know all of the answers, which Hannah used to our enhancement of the tour. Please give Hannah a raise.
