    "Perfect in every way! It’s a private, guided minivan tour, led by a knowledgeable, lovely person. I wish every city had this kind of private tour -- it’s so much better than group/bus tours.”

    "We couldn’t have finished our photography series if not for Pat’s advance work. She’d already made a detailed plan for our day, and was attentive, helpful, practical. She’s very knowledgeable and thoughtful. Thank you, Pat!"
