We really enjoyed Steve’s walking tour through Old Town Salida. A lot of thorough details and instructions were provided when registering and an easy to find meeting place to boot. Steve was extremely knowledgeable about Salida’s history and told each story with enthusiasm and wit! He patiently answered all of our questions and was a wealth of information…Past & Present. As a self proclaimed History Nerd, he’s passionate about his love for Salida and the stories lingering behind the curtain! I recommend this tour…
