Reviews
My wife and I took this tour on a pleasant weekend in March 2026 and were the only participants. Our guide, Stefan, was exceptional and very knowledgeable. Although the tour was intended to last an hour, we finished in 45 minutes since it was just the three of us and we walked quickly. Having lived in Virginia Beach for 14 years, we learned more about the oceanfront in the first 15 minutes than we had in all those years. The tour spans approximately seven blocks of the oceanfront. If I had any criticism, it would be that I wished it included more topics, particularly modern 20th-century history, but I recognize that would require a longer and more expensive tour. We were interested in aspects like architectural developments, changes in laws, shifts in population, and other trends. Virginia Beach has evolved significantly since we left 23 years ago, and we were eager to learn what influenced those changes.
