We're a family of four with two teen/tween kids who were *not* thrilled with the idea of a walking tour. Dean did a great job of keeping their interest and... read more covering a variety of topics from history to architecture to the local economy and much more (even some ghost stories) that gave the adults what we were hoping to learn in an hour overview.
