The Manteo walking tour did not disappoint! This was the second time my husband and I visited Manteo and decided to participate in the tour. The town is charming and is certainly rich in history. The Chief (a retired police officer) is responsible for making this such a success). He is sharp in wit and can be very entertaining. He presented the same historical material but definitely works with the group he has that particular evening making it entertaining and fun. It was extremely warm and honestly at times I hoped he’d pick up the pace but understandably it is a group affair. I suggest making plans to stop in one of the restaurant/taverns after for small bites and drinks for a great evening in the OBX area! Honestly, don’t miss this opportunity.

The views were amazing. The chief shared an eclectic mix of both historical fact and his own stories to enrich everyone’s experiences. The chief had a wide range of knowledge that encompassed different periods of history with lots of facts and lots of stories to make it really entertaining and a delightful evening!

This tour, with retired police chief D'Ambria, was one of the top two best things about our trip to the Outer Banks. During the beautiful tour through Manteao, we were regaled with stories (some true and some maybe true) that were informative, interactive, fun, and really immersed you in the history of Manteo. And what a history it is, even for a non-history buff like myself. If you're in Manteo, TAKE THIS TOUR!
