Third time going on Shane’s tour, and the third time was as good as the first and second. Shane clearly loves doing this and it shows.

I am a retired middle school math teacher that loves history. I have chaperoned many school tours. I believed that Shane ranks as one of my favorite tour guides. The Prescott information was very informative and entertaining. I was engaged the entire 2 hours. I can see that Shane is a very passionate historian. Thank you for a great time.

Shane was super informational and the way he shared the information was so engaging! I learned so much and loved being able to be outside looking at the actual buildings as he wove a story of their history. He was so patient about questions and welcomed them, which I really appreciated.

Shane and his tour were both great! I learned a lot about Whiskey Row, the fire that burned downtown down, some local legends and some recent town drama! Shane also does a Haunted Whiskey Row and I'm doing that tonight! I highly recommend this to learn more about Prescott. #PrescottTours # freakyfoottours
