    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.
