Top Frederick Private Sightseeing Tours

The tour was incredibly informative and enjoyable. The app was spot on with our location as we toured Harper Ferry. This was our first time in doing something like this and we can't wait to do it again in the near future.

Having taken a number of tours in various parts of the country and Europe, our tour with Elite Excursions ranks at the top of our list. We were fortunate to have Kim, the owner of Elite as our tour guide but given the way she approaches her business, we suspect all of her drivers are great guides. Kim is very knowledgeable about the area and its history and being that this is her home, she has personal knowledge of many of the houses and businesses in the towns we visited. We came away with a true appreciation for the area and the good fortune of having made a new friend.

Mike was a wonderful guide on our trip through Harper’s Ferry. He was a wealth of knowledge and made the history of this area during the Civil War period come to life.

Was pretty easy. We got off track and she found where we were and got us to right spot. Just be prepared it takes a lot of battery life on phone and it died. But was really good

The history of Harper's Ferry was brought to life by our guide Mike! He was extremely knowledgeable regarding all aspects of this historic town, including John Brown, the Civil War, race relations and local industry. For two and a half hours he kept us fully engaged. The time was well spent.

It was the perfect way to learn the history of Harper’s Ferry, Charles Town and Shepherdstown. Kim was informative and friendly.

Amazingly knowledgeable guide and incredible service. Thank you very much Ana and Brad for an incredible tour.

The audio for the tour was easy to hear and paced just right. The directions to each location were easy to follow, and the geolocation was spot on as we proceeded to each location. Having the ability to also read the the narrative and directions was very helpful. The map was also very helpful. Overall, I really liked the app and the walking tour. I highly recommend. As for purchasing when traveling with a group, I purchased for each person in my group (2 parents and 4 adult kids), but I was the only one who played the audio on my phone. Everyone just listened to mine. The upside of doing a self guided audio tour is that you can take detours at any point. We stopped for lunch and did some extra walking over the bridge and along the river. You also do not have to try to get to the front of a large group to hear a tour guide.

The process of ordering was easy as well to apply it. We arrived at the starting location and pushed start and it did. We liked the audio tour because it gave another voice to the details and information of this historical site. We were able to walk at our pace and read the markers. It helped us to visualize as we looked over the scenery what happened here. A combination of past and present.

The tour was great! Good descriptions of each area on the tour. The tour didn't indicate the amount of climbing and areas that required care to navigate safely.

We visited Harper's Ferry by arriving on a shuttle bus from the National Park depot. The entire area is walkable although the hills are steep.We stopped at the John Brown museum and crossed the bridge to walk on the Appalachian Trail.

The town of Harpers Ferry has so much history spanning over so many years that without a guided tour, it would be difficult to understand & enjoy.

Too far to walk the tour but unable to drive either. Should really have a trolley to ride and learn.

This tour is not juat a rehashing of the Civil War battle at Harpers Ferry. It tells the history if the diverse popluations that have lived in Harpers Ferry, the economic and cultural drivers of life in the area. Full if interesting facts, vista's, and a beautiful walk on top of it all.

Once I got the hang of it and figured out which direction to walk, it was a neat tour. It is cool that it automatically starts when you reach certain places. I didn’t finish the tour because it was a bit too much of an uphill hike for me but the parts I did were neat.

A good way to hear about Harper Ferry ‘s history. Technology recognizes where you are located & provides information about that site. This supports the traveler’s pace in viewing the area.
