Our guide Doug had an intimate knowledge of the houses and haunts—as well as the mannerisms and mores—which encompassed the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald. An excellent tour guide!

I really enjoyed meeting you and your family for our walking tour of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s life and homes. Your kids and grandkids were curious, engaged…and fun! You interest in exposing them to Minnesota’s literary greats is inspiring. Thanks again!

We had an enjoyable experience on a beautiful afternoon learning about the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald. It was a nice, easy-to-arrange activity that inspires us to learn more about the city and its history.

Susan, our informative stroll during a beautiful evening was fun for me, too. Your group was so interested and the wide-ranging questions were inspiring. Thanks to you, Drew, Emily and Matt. Maybe we'll connect again for another Twin Cities walking tour. Have fun planning your future outings around town!
