Fabulous orientation to Salt Lake City—its history, architecture and people - Jack is an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. We were enthralled during the 3 hour tour, and so it passed very quickly, He pointed out so many interesting details that brought the diverse history of Salt Lake City and surrounds to life. Our walk culminated at the stunning Conference Center where we were treated to a 30 minute organ concert—an ideal finale to an outstanding tour. There were ample water and bathroom breaks on this hot end of July day. It exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend this particular tour and Jack.

Guide made this tour! - Blake was knowledgeable, easy going. He was a great listener and responsive to our requests and interests. He added in extras like a meat and cheese tasting, a tour of the gardens and recommendations for places to eat. He times everything so you get to stop in the air conditioning just as you need it. Highly recommend, if you can get Blake as your guide.

Florida tourist first visit to Utah - David was fantastic in showing me and the family the history of Salt Lake City. He was very patient with all of the questions. I'm extremely happy we chose to do the tour! Had we not done so, we would have missed out on the rich history the city has to offer. Great job!!!

Worthwhile tour. - We had a great walking tour with Isabelle. Really enjoyed the morning. You get a nice mix of history, how the winter Olympics changed the city, and even more changes as the region around Salt Lake City grows. You finish in the Mormon Tabernacle. It was just the two of us with Isabelle, so we got there a little early and got to hear the organist warming up. The Tabernacle is almost acoustically perfect, so well worth your time. We certainly recommend this walking tour and enjoyed having Isabelle as our guide for the morning. Don't trust Google Maps. It took us to the back side of the building. There's an entrance for public parking right in the middle of the street in front of your meeting spot, if you're heading north. Using the building name in Google Maps might work better. Not certain about that.

GREAT TOUR & TOUR GUIDE - Michele was terrific - we rate her and the tour a 5. She was so friendly, nice, and very informative. My only suggestion is you need to put more specific directions to the meeting place. The GPS took us to the wrong place, so we were late. But, Michele was very accommodating and came to get us. This has happened to others, so something needs to be changed.

The tour was great, and I... - The tour was great, and I saw and learned about parts of SLC I wouldn't have discovered on my own. So would definitely recommend. The only sour note is, I could have done with less of the constant political editorializing.

It’s okay. Need improving - There was too much talking. We needed more sightseeing, walking, and restroom spots, which were required to be prepared for guests during the 3-hour tour. We didn't see much except standing on a busy street with loud noises, listening to the tour guide.
