We enjoyed this tour. Amanda is very knowledgeable about Wilmington’s past. Getting to know some of the history you would otherwise not likely be exposed to makes this tour well worth taking.

Wilmington is such a wonderful town, so much to learn and see. Our tour operator, Amanda, was outstanding. I was hanging off her every word. She was funny, knowledgeable, passionate and was a great communicator.

Wear good walking shoes and pick a day where the temps don’t reach 100!! Bring plenty of water and stop at the Concorde coffee shop before your tour. It’s adorable!!
