History of Birmingham

5.00Great opportunity to hear about the history of the city of Birmingham from someone who has lived there and studied the past history while keeping current on the city as well. To ride by and stand in historical places should not be missed on your visit to the city of Birmingham. The tour guide answered all questions while keeping the tour on schedule. Its a beautiful city..its history is unfortunate but hopefully will not define it. I hope schools and churches and youth groups take the opportunity to see and hear more about this city.
Highly recommend

5.00Detailed, thoughtful and thought-provoking tour through Birmingham’s difficult past. Clay has a million details in his head and is clearly passionate about the topic. We learned a good deal on this tour and will continue to talk about it. We saw eye-opening parts of Bham that contrasted sharply with the resort area we were staying in outside of the city. As hard as some of the stories are to hear, it’s important that we know them and continue to learn from them. Highly recommend taking this tour.
Great tour!

5.00The tour guide, Clay was incredible. The tour is emotional and recalls horrible episodes in our history of violence against black Americans. Clay is knowledgeable and fact based, presenting the people and places that made Birmingham what it is today. I highly recommend this tour. Thank you Clay. Jill and Janet

5.00My friend joined me, and we both left informed, inspired, and challenged Clay is incredibly knowledgeable — basically a walking Alabama historian (LOL). He brought powerful context to each stop and connected the past to the present in a way that really makes you think. I highly recommend this tour to anyone with a thirst for knowledge and an open mind.
Amazing, Best tour, in ANY city I've ever been on!

5.00Whoops, I wrote a review last night under my other email address, SeaSideTomato50. Please see that glowing review and go on this incredible tour-it is amazing!!
I’ve been on plenty of walking tours over the years— I have never learned so much, on such an important matter.

5.00This was an incredible experience! We all learned so much. Clay is so knowledgeable- on such an important subject. We were visiting from New England with Family who moved to Birmingham in the last couple of years. All of us were deeply moved. One is a history professor and found so much worthwhile in the presentation. She’ll be back with future visitors and likely follow up on so much of the subject matter and sources for further details. Bravo Red Clay Tours— this is a tour for the ages. On a scale of 1-10? 100!! Not a typo-one hundred. Just go!! I am no relation, I am super impressed! Take the tour and learn why those statues and markers are significant.
Absolutely fantastic....
