What people are saying

  • “Discover the rich history of the city and the gems of art which surround us! Erin gives a great walking tour. It's informative and fun! See parts of the city that maybe are not on the regular beat and path. The Big Red Thing Tour is great! I always wondered what the Big Red Thing sculpture was about and now I know, as well as some fun facts about the surrounding area. Learn interesting bits of architectural history and works of art we walk by every day. Art is all around us!” - Vincenza
