5.00Our tour guide, Ken, is a Pittsburgh enthusiast and loves his work. He is enthusiastic about passing along the information to the guests and does such a thorough job that he stretched a two-hour tour into almost three, with our permission of course. He gives well thought out explanations and encourages questions.

5.00Fantastic walking tour of downtown!! Ken was an excellent guide…informative, engaging, and entertaining. We learned so much about the city’s history, architecture, and evolution. Enjoyed every minute! Our tour ran closer to 2h30 and you do a considerable amount of walking so definitely wear comfortable walking shoes. They have water and a restroom at their shop that you can use before starting the tour.
Great for overall Pittsburgh experience
