Nice enough I guess

3.00If you don’t buy the tour, Walk over to Lake Monona Terrace. Look up Otis Redding and Frank Lloyd Wright. Then walk up to the capital. Take a free tour there. Then walk down State St to UW. At UW, head towards the student union. That’s about it. Oh, and read about UW and the Vietnam war protests.
Easy to follow and good stories about the city.

4.00We started the walking tour at 11am. It was very hot day. No fault of the tour but it was just too hot to be walking around outside. So we never finished.

5.00Great guide and tour. A few good stops along the way. My sister in law lives in Milwaukee and saw things and learned things she didn't know before. Highly recommend.

5.00I enjoyed this self-guided tour around Madison. It was an easy way to explore the city at my own pace. The walking route was simple to follow and took me through some interesting spots I might’ve missed otherwise. The info on the historical sites was interesting without being too long or boring, and I liked learning a bit more about the city’s past. It felt like the perfect mix of a nice walk and a bit of local history. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to get outside and see more of Madison on their own time.

4.00It was an informative tour. We learned quite more than we thought. It took a bit to figure out the route as we are not very familiar with the area. The starting point was difficult to find but once we did it was a very good tour!

5.00A good way for a first time visitor to see Madison. Plus, you can pause the tour at any time, as I did to visit thru Capitol and MONONA terrace. No personally guided tours were available, so this was a good alternative.
