AN ABSOLUTE "MUST" FOR CONSTANT READERS & THIER FAMILIES! CUJO LOVED IT!
We just took the tour last week and it was excellent. Our guide Jamie was knowledgeable not only about King, his family and his works but also the Bangor area. We booked a private tour for 5 plus our St Bernard and the tour was roomy and comfortable for all of us. We were thrilled to learn that our dog "Cujo" was the first Cujo EVER to take the tour! I am a self-proclaimed SK expert and I learned a few things. My wife and kids also had a great time. Its a great tour for fans of the books, movies OR both. I am also interested in the history of Betts Bookstore....and as a bonus...Jamie's father was the previous owner....so I got extra history there as well! I only wish I would have booked another tour for later that day JUST to ask additional questions and see additional sites. We will definitely be back to do another tour in the future. A MUST for Constant Readers!

Worth the Trip!
A great tour given by Jamie! I have been wanting to do a Derry trip for a while now, and he showed me everything I wanted to see and way more! It was great to see the real places behind the fictional locations, and the story behind the writer. My significant other knew basically nothing about King or his works, and said he had a lot of fun on Jamie’s tour and enjoyed all the interesting personal stories about the Kings. We look forward to coming back on this tour next time we are in Maine. We took the private tour (public tour was filled - trip was last minute), and one recommendation is to book in advance, especially if travelling in the summer. Well worth the money and time. Thank you for everything you do, Jamie!

Fantastic Tour
I’ve been a Stephen King fan since I was a kid. A family member bought tickets for this tour because I had read somewhere that Stephen has iron gates around his home decorated with bats, spiders, and spider webs, and I had mentioned I’d like to see them. She figured this tour must take you past the house (it does). I didn’t know what to expect on this tour. I thought it might be creepy and weird, and though you stop in a local cemetery and visit other Derry (Bangor) landmarks, it never was. A lot of it is about Stephen and Tabitha, their philanthropy in Bangor, and the history of the city that influences Stephen’s writing. Jamie, the tour guide, was fun and entertaining, very knowledgeable. We had a great time, and the ticket was well worth the price. I highly recommend it to all Stephen King fans, and even those simply looking for a tour of Bangor, because you get to see the city and hear a bit about its history.
