Excellent walking tour of Old Gray Cemetery. I completely enjoyed Laura Still as the tour guide. Very knowledgeable. Its extremely interesting to learn facts about the early Knoxville citizens, about their life and about their death. So much of Knoxvilles history lying in one spot. If you love history, you shouldnt miss this tour.
My daughters 5th grade class took the Civil War Walking Tour today and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! Ms. Still was very engaging and her vivid descriptions painted a picture of how the area looked during the Civil War. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in local history, you will definitely enjoy the tour.
Really enjoyed the Shadow Side Ghost Tour. Took us to some great locations I otherwise wouldnt have seen as a tourist. I appreciated that the guide had a microphone so we could all hear her. Loved learning the history of the city with the ghost stories. I thought part of one story in particular was funny and was trying to share it with my mom later but I kept messing it up, forgetting parts, and having to go back to explain. I realized then how effortless our tour guide made storytelling seem and had even more respect for her skills.
I strongly encourage anyone with an interest in the Civil War and especially those with an interest in Knoxvilles role in the Civil War to consider taking this tour. The tour was interesting and informative. The guide almost spoke as if she were in Knoxville during the war, even though I know that could not have been possible. Her uncanny recall of specific names, the chronology of events and the places where these events occurred is simply amazing. Going up into the Sunsphere just pulled the whole experience together. The tour was worth every penny. I plan to take additional walking tours in the future. You cannot go wrong with this experience.
Laura was an absolutely fantastic tour guide. She indulged our many questions and had such interesting fun facts for our tour. We would absolutely recommend this experience.
Laura was great! I took my parents on the Gunslinger tour which had just yhe right mix of intrigue, humor, history and great storytelling.
We had our sons 13th Birthday Party downtown and followed the meal with Knoxville Walking Tours. The kids loved it! The sun went down and the journey began - walking around various spooky locations around downtown. The kids were engaged and the story telling was fantastic. Thank you for the great experience!
Laura is so knowledgeable and fun. Did the Gunslinger Tour. Was so interesting we forgot the cold weather. Will do more tours with her but will wait until spring.
Went on Old Gray Cementary tour and one of the Ghost tours. We had a great time on both tours. Looking forward to another tour. Great stories.
