Beautiful Charlottetown

4.00Ken was our guide and his family has been on the island for generations so he has great stories and fantastic knowledge to share. The first part was a lot of standing and listening to history, and I thought the whole thing was going to be in a few blocks, but then we got moving! We saw quite a lot of the town! The architecture is beautiful, the history is rich and interesting. Great tour!
Very informative tour of Charlottetown

5.00A relaxed walk through town led by guide Ken, a lifelong native of PEI. Ken had many interesting personal stories and experiences that he freely shared, allowing for questions. Would recommend this tour for anyone interested in an easy walk with a knowledgeable and personable guide.

5.00This is a great walking tour of some of the city's highlights, the perfect length and amount of distance covered. Our tour guide, Caroline, was a lifelong islander and did a fantastic job mixing history, facts, figures and trivia about the island into the tour. Highly recommend if you are looking for a short and sweet whistle stop tour.
