This tour is really excellent. Our guide, Max was fantastic, a born raconteur, with a fabulous way of bringing history to life with aplomb. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to anyone. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we have now booked on the ghost tour of Ybor.

I learned so much about Ybor City from our tour guide Max! It was so interesting to see and hear all about the history of this community. The pace was perfect and Max held our interest with his entertaining stories. I highly recommend this tour!

The tour was very interesting and just the right pace. Our tour guide, Steve, went out of his way to make sure that my son, in a wheelchair, had the full experience. One thing to note--you must bring your cell phone to get the full experience.

This is one of the best tours. Max was so interesting and held our attention the whole time. He is a born story teller and he made a history lesson so interesting that you didnt even notice you were walking. I would highly recommend.

We are from the UK and this was our first time in Tampa. Our tour guide Max was excellent. What a Showman. He should be on the stage. He was very informative, funny and held our attention throughout the whole of the walking tour. . We can really recommend it. Mike and Helen

This was an awesome tour led by Max who obviously knows and loves his subject and enjoys sharing it with others. I cannot say enough good things, comprehensive, fun, entertaining, and informative. I highly recommend this. He does a ghost tour, too I hope to catch my next time in Tampa.

Max was helpful prior to the Ybor city tour and very engaging with small talk as we waited for others. Once the tour began he brought to life the rise and fall of Ybor city with in debt knowledge and dramatic flair. Well done! Highly recommend for all ages!
