We welcome families with children on all our tours!

In our experience, children 10 and older, interested in history will enjoy the tour. Children five years and younger are free, but do not receive any food. Parents may share or bring snacks. The streetcar is stroller-friendly. Children ages six and older require a ticket.
Our guides greatly appreciate tips. Most guests tip their tour guides between 10-20%.

We want it to be a surprise… It’s more fun that way! But we will say that all businesses we partner with are independently owned, feature local ingredients, and are chosen to provide a wide variety of dishes.
