A Must Do Bike Tour - Cannot recommend this bike tour highly enough. Betsy, our tour guide, gave us historical background to the city as well as current information in a wonderful entertaining manner. The 3hrs just flew by. Betsy also provided helpful hints on what to see and where to eat. Thank you Betsy for a great morning.
