Reviews

We had the best of experiences on this journey. Mr. B, Steve, Miles and even our bus driver, Josh, could not have done more for us. They were so generous in their time, attention, and with their immense knowledge of civil rights history and the blues. It was abundantly clear they wanted us to learn and have a great time. In fact, we did learn so much all while having tons of fun along the way with a fantastic small group of students and two professors from Switzerland. Even our bus rides on a state-of-art comfortable coach were made enjoyable with guide-curated blues music and pertinent segments of civil rights documentaries. The experience was intimate, personal, and immersive. Tours can offer so much when they are done well and right: expert guides, safe transport, visits to places one would never otherwise go, and new acquaintances and friends. I am thrilled I took this trip and look forward to another experience with Civil Rights Trail Tours. Go, Mr. B! And, thank you!!!
