Great Tour and Great Guide! - I couldn’t ask for a better tour with Jamal! I had the whole bus by myself which is so much fun but aside from it Jamal is so knowledgeable with everything about Tampa which makes the ride super interesting. I highly highly recommend having your tour with them!

We learned so much more about Tampa. Our out of town guests loved loved the tour. Jamal answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this tour with Jamal if you are a local or an out of towner. Thank you Jamal!
