Westport...as seen through the eyes of a native son

5.00Stephen was amazing! A well-rounded overview of Westport history over the centuries without a moment of boring details, his personal presentation was from the heart as only a true Westport native could deliver. Humor, stories and legends, facts, and hopes for the future were intertwined creating a sense of wonder...and a "I want to move here" feeling.
Wonderful tour!!

5.00This was the best walking tour I've been on. Stephen combined humor with his facts and didn't just throw out dates. This little town has interesting history and truly defines community. Stephen did an excellent job of relaying both of these to the participants of this tour
Obtained much deeper understanding of the history and current efforts of Westport.

5.00Such a wonderful tour of a fabulous town! I was in town from the US to visit relatives. My whole life, I've heard stories of Westport, but I learned so much more from this tour! Our guide, Ed, was knowledgeable and energetic. The tour stops give a nice variety of info about the culture and history of Westport. When you visit Westport, you must have a drink at Matt Malloy's, see Croagh Patrick, and take the Westport Walking Tour!
Long live the pirate queen!
