Great town to visit - David did a wonderful narrated tour about Fredericksburg. This helped us to determine what we wanted to do and see for the rest of the day. So much history for a small town.

Michelle was fantastic! - Michelle was fantastic. She set a great tone for our trip. She knew the type of information that you would not find on a normal google search. The tour proceeded despite only five people on the trip, and we were upgraded (at no cost) to the boutique wine experience (cush van and high end wineries). The food was good, wine was great, and by the end we were all friends. As someone that does did not know much about Texas grapes, growing, or winemaking in general, I could not have enjoyed this trip the same way without Michelle as a tour guide. I learned a lot and the experience was more than worth the price.

Fredericksberg Rocks! - We only had a day in Frederickberg and wanted to see as much as possible. We parked at the Wolfe Street parking garage so it was only a ten minute walk to the visitor center where the trolley picks you up. There are public washrooms behind the center which were clean. Since the tour lasts 1 hour 15 minutes, you may want to use them. Heidi did an excellent job driving and explaining the history of Fredericksberg. We drove by beautiful homes, different neighbourhoods, civil war sites, various museums as well as the river. We learned of some of the people who helped make Fredericksberg what it is today. Time flew by and we were never bored. We know we will have to come back again to further explore this beautiful town with 40 blocks of buildings on the historical list. Great tour and well worth the cost. You can book on line in advance or in the visitor center.
