We got to see how beautiful downtown Raleigh is. Mike was very knowledgeable of Raleigh's history. I learned some cool facts and about 2 major historic figures that I never heard about! Definitely worth the experience.

This was an excellent experience with a private Pedicab Tour of Downtown Raleigh. Michael is a history teacher with an excellent background in history. His expertise is the top of the line. My husband and I really enjoyed our tour. Downtown Raleigh is a beautiful and historic city. The best was to see Downtown Raleigh is with Micheal on the Private Pedicab Tour.
