John, our guide, was truly a joy throughout the tour. He was professional and shared some great jokes, demonstrating remarkable knowledge even when faced with challenging questions. He’s definitely the reason we’d return. However, I was somewhat let down that the tour didn't emphasize the whiskey rebellion and prohibition as much as advertised. About half the tour focused on those topics, while the other half covered historical facts about Pittsburgh. Overall, I would recommend this tour to others, but I think the title should be adjusted or there should be more emphasis on those two periods.
