The tour was amaizing!! So refreshing and different compared to the typical sightseeing walking tour you would expect. The guide was very knowledgeable and funny and the lenght of the tour was just right, not too long or too short. If you have time I highly reccomend giving this tour a visit :)

Booked a last minute impromptu walking tour to try to expand my knowledge on the history of slavery. This tour delivered everything I could have asked for and more. Sam is a well of knowledge covering the history of slavery from both an architectural point of view and then supported in oral history and imagery that he has collected over his studies. Truly a great and memorable experience that will have you quickly clamoring for another tour.
