Daniel was extremely knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. Enjoyed his "storytelling" versus dry infomercial type delivery.
Response from Host, Dec 2022
We always try to make our tours an experience that you will remember as being a high point of your vacation.
Lots of history and some slightly off beat characters that exerted authority over this small island.
I am so delighted that you had a great time and we really appreciate your taking the time out to leave this valuable feedback.
It means everything to us to keep the bar really high in content and delivery.
Thank you so very much!

Daniel was a very engaging speaker who knew lots of info on the history of Amelia Island. He gave us extra time on the tour. We enjoyed looking at all the notable/historic homes and hearing why these homes were of interest.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
I really appreciate your great feedback as it’s alway a great welcome when I have a little extra time to introduce a small snippet of the historic homes and people that made the difference as to why this is such an amazing place to tour and visit. The 8 Flags and Historic homes are separate tours, but when time allows a sneak preview, it’s always a fun addition!,

Ed_P, Apr 2022
It’s not often that you hit the perfect trifecta of tours ….good weather, small group ,and most importantly a very knowledgeable tour guide, Daniel Daly. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the island’s long history. We travel extensively and this was one of the best tours we’ve taken. We did not want it to be over
Response from Host, May 2022
I really appreciate the maximum 10 out of 10 and 5 stars for good measure! It’s alway the perfect environment when a small intimate group with a love of local history ride out with us and immerse themselves in the fabulous legends this island has to offer. It’s without a doubt the most magical of islands, with a deep and interesting past. Thank you for taking the time out to leave this review and we look forward to seeing you again on one of our other tours on your next visit to the island.
