Overpriced.

3.00Walking through Charlottetown was a wonderful experience. I did enjoy it- it would be hard not to as it was a gorgeous day and Charlottetown is beautiful- but our guide, while a lovely person, did not seem as knowledgeable as I would expect and I often had trouble hearing her. (I am not deaf.) The cost of this walking tour was twice that of others and I certainly could not see the benefit in this at all.
Learn about Charlottetown, get a little exercise.

5.00We learned so much about this beautiful and historic place. Our guide could not have been any better, he was knowledgeable, friendly and kind. Extra bonus was that he has a role in a local community theater production that we are lucky enough to see while we’re here. Thoroughly enjoyed the adventure!
Unpleasant excursion

1.00Walked group at a VERY rapid pace. Unable to hear guide most of the time. Unable to see much since much time was looking at broken roads and sidewalks to prevent falling since walking at rapid pace. This was by far one of the poorest excursions ever!
Lovely and walkable town. Tour guide a novice.

2.00We were paired with Annalise who was very new to this role (like, we were her first group ever). She was a lovely and cheerful young lady but lacked the knowledge and training necessary for this role.
Stroll through Charlotte Town and enjoy getting to meet the locals

5.00Very pleased with this walking tour. Easy to find meeting place and only 4 of us on the tour so felt very personal. San was very knowledgeable and spoke very well. Good pace and saw a lot in 2 hours. Great recommendation for a lobster roll too. Thanks.
A nice way to spend 2 hours.
