Fun and informative tour with Crish Huff. - We recently took a one-hour historical tour in Grafton, Illinois, and it was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Crish Huff, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the tour both educational and fun. She shared great stories and local history in a way that was engaging and easy to follow — we learned a lot without ever feeling overwhelmed.
The pace was perfect, and the hour flew by. It was a very pleasant and enjoyable way to spend part of our day in Grafton. If you're in the area and want to learn more about its history, I highly recommend this tour — and especially Crish as your guide!
