Great for rock and roll buffs - Our guide Larry was very nice. We went to the wrong meetup place and when we caught up to the group he was happy we made it. He was very informative and he knows his rock history. We had a great time.

Woodstock Rocks! - Larry was an excellent guide, his knowledge of 1960’s music & the Woodstock area was amazing. I felt extra welcomed by the locals once they saw we were with Larry.

Woodstock Rocks As Does This Tour - What a wonderful tour! Larry gave a most informative walk-about the town of Woodstock with an exceptional narration discussing the many musical icons who called Woodstock "home". A five star experience!

Excellent! - Larry was such a fun Rockin & Rollin tour guide! We learned so many interesting & obscure facts about the artists and how they helped to shape Woodstock. So much history of the town was incorporated in each segment of the tour. His passion for and knowledge of rock & roll history is truly incredible. Our group of 9 highly recommend this as a worthwhile & valuable tour w Larry.

Hot day in Woodstock - Very informative and enjoyed walking in the footsteps of Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, and John Sebastian. A little disappointed that the tour seemed to be focused on Bob Dylan but understood the change was based on all the activities in the town on the day of our visit.

Great guide, fascinating insights - Larry was very knowledgeable. Lots of “inside” information and details not normally available without tons of research. Very pleased with the experience.

Suggestions to the Tour Company - Overall, very informative & friendly tour. The guide, Larry, was very good. My suggestion to the company that advertised the tour: Please describe more in detail the progression of the tour. We were delayed due to the highway accident problems, numerous, and didn't know how to join the tour that had already begun. By accident, we found the tour already in progress on Tinker Street! Also your explanation about "you are responsible for the transportation to The Bearsville Center" was very confusing. You could have said "you drive your car from Tinker Street to The Bearsville Center yourselves." The weather was beautiful, though.

Not a good fit for everyone! - Do not recommend this tour unless you were a young adult or teenager in the 1960’s. We actually bowed out after only 45 minutes.
