Absolutely fantastic tour. Dave did an amazing job as our tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and made it a lot of fun. Took us to many unique places off the beaten path. At one point, in a small chapel, he even played Amazing Grace on the antique organ. I would rate this the best city tour that we have ever taken. Highly recommend this tour.

We were in a van as the trolly had mechanical issues. We saw so much and learned a lot about the history of Fredericksburg. Dave was a great guide. We would recommend to others.

This tour is easily done in a short amount of time while riding in a comfortable trolley bus. Gives you a good summary of the history of the early town and the tour is led by a fantastic guide.
