The history lesson was fantastic and catered to our interests. Mark provided a binder with images to enrich the tales of what we were seeing. While the cold weather wasn’t his fault, we enjoyed a warm cup of coffee during the tour. I highly recommend this experience. Thank you for accommodating us in the off-season!
Josh is truly outstanding. His walking tour was enjoyable, informative, and highly engaging. I particularly liked the historical photos he shared, which highlighted the changes in various locations over time. Josh also provided thoughtful answers to our questions, enhancing the tour's depth and value, which we greatly appreciated. Overall, I had a fantastic experience—Josh's enthusiasm and expertise were evident throughout. I strongly recommend joining one of his tours if you find yourself in PEI.

Our walking tour of Charlottetown was fantastic, and Josh was the perfect guide. He led us through the town, sharing captivating stories about the history of PEI and notable figures and locations, highlighting popular sites we might have missed. What truly set this experience apart was Josh's engaging personality. He was humorous, relatable, and maintained our interest the entire time. He answered all our questions in detail and made sure we never felt hurried. It genuinely felt like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend rather than being on a standard tour. Josh's passion for his work was evident, making him an incredibly likable and easy-going guide. I would highly recommend this tour; it deserves every bit of its 5-star rating.

I highly recommend this tour. Ken was an exceptional guide, offering extensive knowledge about Charlottetown's history. Although I had seen some sites beforehand, the tour deepened my appreciation for them.
This is a charming and intimate tour company where you feel like you're among family. It was a delightful experience. Along with two other couples, we were able to ask questions throughout, and I gained a lot of knowledge in just two hours. I noticed larger groups with other tours, which weren’t as personal.
Carolyn was an incredible guide, clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the town. The pace of the walk was relaxed, allowing plenty of opportunities to rest and appreciate the buildings that define Canada. Though I was the only participant, I found this made the experience more personal, making it easy to ask questions. I strongly recommend this tour if you're in the area.
Carolyn demonstrated extensive knowledge as our tour guide, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. We appreciated the city and its interconnected streets, as well as the numerous benches at nearly every corner, which is especially beneficial when walking with young children. We will definitely return.
