This was the tour of a lifetime! George, our guide, had fascinating tales to tell about the origins and history of Pittsburgh. He clearly loves his city, and is extremely knowledgeable about it. This two hour trip was not just a car journey as it included a stop to take the vernacular up the incline, with explanations being given on the way up, at the top, and on the way back down again. Several brief photo opportunities were thrown in to capture images of the scenery and the places being shown. The information included local, regional, national and world history, geography, sports, industry, transportation, and so much more! I thoroughly recommend this tour -- it was the best we've ever done.

We thought we booked a 2 hour private tour of the highlights of Pittsburgh, we only had 2 stops in 2 hours. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable but he barely showed us anything. He just kept talking mainly about what Pittsburgh is famous for. His car was very old and beat up; not fit for tours. I tripped over a sidewalk on the second stop and was bleeding. . .the guide didn't have any first aid supplies. . . A school bus driver gave me paper towels to help stop the bleeding. However, the guide did call 911 to get me medical attention. . .A tour I will never forget and do not recommend!!!

Incredible tour given by George. Top notch, informative on everything related to Pittsburgh, and when he found out we were baseball enthusiasts, he went out of his way to thrill us with special visits to Forbes field and other fun historical sports locations around the city. Definitely 5 stars and worth every penny

My tour guide was George and he was very good, he does his job with passion and I enjoyed the tour more than I expected. I am from Zimbabwe and yessss i enjoyed seeing beautiful places in Pittsburgh, the real gateway to the West, the city with many nicknames, the city of steel, the city of champions, the city of many bridges. I will definitely come back again ‼️
