Very good tour. We enjoyed it. The stories were new to me and I grew up in the W-S area. They were interesting and well told.

A lot of fun to be had on this tour, we loved it. We were a last minute building and just in town for the day, but the tour director and guide were both very accommodating and helpful.
Great tour

This tour was a lot of fun. I am a big true crime fan, and had heard of only one of the cases, and got introduced to a really cool look at Winston-Salem. Annie was the host and did great.

I had a lot of fun. Annie is a very smart and humorous host who did a great job, and I had a great time. The tour also ends right in the heart of downtown in the middle of many great bars and restaurants.
Annie was a gem!!
