Informative walking tour through Winston-Salem - I learned a lot about the history of the city and the industries that have shaped it.

Wow I never knew Winston-Salem was so interesting. Despite growing up in WS I knew very little of its history beyond the obvious tobacco stuff, and this tour really gave me a new perspective on my hometown. What a great tour. Annee was an awesome guide and really well informed about the city.

I had not heard of Winston Salem before but Annie did a great job of showing me the city and what made it so interesting. I had no idea that there were factories like this so far South. The downtown was very charming and alive. Annie was very educated and knew the city well.
