Very interesting and entertianing tour

Jamie_C, Jul 2026
Private tour guide. Reid was very informative and entertaining - even sang Hamilton songs for us (which we liked). Not just basic information - gave us serious thought provoking commentary.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you so very much for the positive review. Several recently were uncertain about my singing the songs on the tour. I'm very glad they are still entertaining.

Learning while singing and laughing

Creating memories, while learning is the best. Reid was informative and thought provoking. He caused us to think beyond the "play."

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks so much. I think learning while having fun is the best combination. You guys were great too, singing and dancing along with me.

Study your lyrics to really enjoy the walk.

Reid is very knowledgeable on Hamilton history and the early American history. He made the whole walk very relevant and well-paced. MY daughter, a major Hamilton buff told me that she learned quite a few things from the tour. She also enjoyed singing with Reid although I have no idea how the two of them could memorize all the lyrics.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

I'm so glad you both enjoyed the tour with me. And I'm glad your daughter sang along as it makes the tour more fun that way. The way to learn the lyrics is practice, practice, practice.

We had a great time! ...

We had a great time! Reid was a wealth of knowledge. His stories were fun and full of brain tingling facts. He took the preteen seeming to be disinterested in stride—- both loved it and learned so much sharing it with us the whole drive home! Thank you!

Response from Host, Apr 2022

I'm so glad everyone enjoyed the tours. Kids are a tough audience, so I'm glad they had a good time too.

I enjoyed learning about the life and career of Alexander Hamilton and his relationships with other Founding Fathers. Wish I had dressed more warmly.

Response from Host, Nov 2020

I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and sorry about the weather. Not much I can do about that.
