5.00James was AMAZING!!! So knowledgeable and took us to all of the cool spots. Even my 16 & 17 year old loved hearing about all of the history of Tampa. It was a warm day but, the golf cart breeze more than made up for the heat. Book it, you won’t be disappointed.
Great tour of Tampa - laid back and interactive.

5.00James was our tour guide and gave a great tour of Tampa. It was just my wife and I and it made for a very personal tour. We could ask questions and interact. Good historical info and great way to get to know Tampa. Definitely recommend, even if you already live in the area, I guarantee you will learn something about Tampa you did not know. And if you are new to the area , I can think of a better way to get familiar with Tampa.

5.00James loves Tampa and shares the city to become your new home. He engages you with sights, sounds, information and enthusiasm that may question of relocating. Although, just a short time, so worthwhile and James is very professional, thoughtful and kind.. Absolutely, one of the BEST golf cart tours we have EVER experienced. James and this tour is a MUST when visiting.
