Any great tour begins and ends with a graet tour guide. Cameron made this tour so much more than a tour of the city. He's part historian, not just a point and talk guide, who took us deep into the heart and soul of early St. Pete. He was part foodie, pointing out great places to eat. He was part palm tree expert, which you will understand if you take the tour. When this expertise is rolled into one person you get Cameron! If I needed an employee I would hire me for his enthusiasm and ability to connect with his customers. On top of all of that, I never felt any nerves because of his driving. The end result of taking his tour is our desire to return to the city and to explore more of the things he educated us about.
- Very enthusiastic tour guide - Lots of interesting facts about the city - Short stops for photos and restroom breaks - Thanks, Cameron
Really enjoyed seeing so much of St Pete in one fun trip. Very knowledgeable guide. Only suggestion is to make sure water given out for trip is cold.
Cameron was a wealth of knowledge, and also so patient with my mother who is old and needed a little extra time getting around. Would definitely recommend this adventure
Cameron did a great job with the tour. He is very knowledgeable and very passionate about St. Petersburg. We got lucky and it was only my wife and I so we got personal attention. I highly recommend the tour.
Cam was our tour guide. He has a TON of energy, and he has quite a bit of knowledge about the town. He can be a bit loud, but he means well and it's extremely nice. My mom has 2 artificial hips and had to sit down during our pine tree tour, and he was very understanding and accommodating. We'll have to try that hotel food if we ever come back to St. Petersburg. Thank you for your time.
Trish was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable and informative. It was our first time in St. Petersburg and we really enjoyed learning more about the city.

Cameron was an excellent guide. His narration was more like a conversation with friends than a canned spiel. He showed consideration for our safety and comfort throughout our tour.

We had an amazing experience with Cameron as our tour guide, he kept it very interactive and engaging and told us about all the best spots and showed us some of the most beautiful sights. We had asked him if he could drop us off near the Chihuly museum because that's where we were going next and he was very accomodating. Big thank you to Cameron for the awesome tour and all the cool facts.
Cameron was personable, engaging and attentive to his group. It’s apparent that he loves the acquisition of history, the arts, good food, nature and, most importantly, interfacing with folks from all walks of life.

We laughed, we learned and we would definitely repeat the tour! Cam was very knowledgeable and provided us tips we used around town.
I took this tour with Cameron to get oriented with St. Pete since I haven’t been since childhood. It was perfect. Cameron is knowledgeable and charismatic and clearly loves his job and this city, which radiated throughout the tour. The tour itself was perfectly balanced in terms of illuminating St. Pete’s historical significance, natural beauty, botany, women’s history, local foodie favorites, and impressive local art. I will definitely take this tour again.

My wife and I travel quite a bit and have taken many tours. This tour, the St Petersburg Golf Cart Tour was among the most comprehensive city tours we’ve been on. There was a reason we found this tour to be so excellent and that reason was our tour guide Cameron. Not only was he knowledgeable, thorough and answered our questions with impressive detail but he was personable and did all this with enthusiasm.
