5.00We participated in this tour today with Andrew who is both very knowledgeable and charismatic. He managed to cover a lot of history and fun facts on buildings and people. I was especially amazed by his story about Anna Julia Cooper, a woman born into slavery who earned a PhD and became an educator, commonly known as the "Mother of Black Feminism". Thank you, Andrew for an excellent tour!

5.00What a great one hour tour! We really enjoyed the history of Durham as told by Andrew who is just brimming with knowledge and fun facts about the area. Highly recommend! Well worth the price. Just know you have to meet him by the water tower within the square of the complex. We had a bit of an issue finding him but he called us and we connected.
It was ok and should be a longer tour ...?

3.00Tour guide Jackson was nice, but he wasn't as personable as other tour guides we've taken previously in domestic and internationally. Obviously Jackson knew about the history. If he could speak a bit slower we might have enjoyed more....
A fun way learn about some of Durhams history!

5.00Jackson is superb. He is a local resident who clearly knows Durham's history, specifically the origins, successes, and declines of the American Tobacco Company. The tour is VERY good. He knows his subject well and makes it enjoyable.
