Downtown Tampa Historic Walking Tour, Florida, United States
5.0 (15 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Carrollwood Walking Tours • Day Trips
Tampa historical tour delights and provides educational insight to Tampa's humble beginnings.
My favorite part of the Downtown Tampa Historic Tour Was learning of the historical significance of the Tampa theatre.The restoration and preservation of this building is a crowning jewel in Tampa History. Also learning of the bravery and integrity of those young African Americans who stood up for their rights with peaceful sit-ins at the lunch counter of what was then the downtown Woolworth store. As a musician, I was also delighted to see the memorial man-hole cover that relives that golden jazz and blues era by depicting the fabulous jazz artists that visited and delighted Tampa residents with their music.

Excellent Historic Tour with Elizabeth!
This great walking tour is a must do when in Tampa! Our guide Elizabeth was very knowledgeable and excited to share all the interesting history of downtown Tampa. We had a great time learning so much about this beautiful city. Again, Elizabeth took extra time to answer questions from the group; she was fantastic!

Loved it!
Very cool tour. I liked learning about the Native Tribes, especially how the Seminole Tribe of today all come from only 300 survivors who were able to hide in the Everglades. Elizabeth is a very enthusiastic guide, entertaining who clearly loves her job.
