Traveler reviews
Recommended mansion tour!
Angel is the real star of the show. She’s a walking encyclopedia of Louisville history.— Tells so many interesting, engaging stories! Thoroughly enjoyed the tour and all the wonderful homes we saw!
Tour lives up to the hype and ask for Gabe!
The tour is very comprehensive and thoughtfully designed. A very special thank you for our intrepid guide, Gabe. We had quite a large group of various walking styles and he really kept the group moving and nobody was left straggling. Gabe and the other members of our group were so kind when our friend was stung by an insect and gave her every kind of first aid. The volunteers at the Conrad-Caldwell house also came out to help. This was all during set up for the St James art fair, which really turned the walking and parking situation topsy turvey. The man deserves a raise and travellers should request Gabe.
Perfect walking tour !
Gabe was a wonderful guide! The walking tour takes you through beautiful paths and hidden natural beauty, while also taking you to see beautiful mansions on Millionaire’s Row. Gabe provided a lot of historical info and anecdotes to understand and appreciate Louisville.
