Baseball history!

Our tour guide Michael was knowledgeable and kind. He really knows his MLB history (and 8 Men Out) and the local scene. Excellent tour, very interesting opinions off-script, and overall extremely professional tour. Loved it!

Our guide, Mike, clearly...

Our guide, Mike, clearly enjoys what he is doing, which makes the experience that much better. This was part of a birthday weekend for my husband, the bigger (by far) baseball fan of the two of us, but - I found it to be interesting as well! Mike mixes baseball history with a good bit of Cincinnati history too! Do know you'll be walking a decent amount.

Cinti's place in baseball history

Informative tour, surprisingly relevant to Cincinnati. Several behind-the-scenes players were crucial to how 1919 was corrupted and later investigated. Highly recommended for those interested in Cinti's place in baseball history. Mike is a five-star tour guide, well informed and an interesting presenter.
