If you are from Durham, or new to the area this is a great way to learn some of the rich history of the city and enjoy a few laughs along the way. You can bring your wine, beer and snacks on this brightly colored, throwback school bus, fully equipped with the booming system. The tour guide was hilarious and he provided the attendees with some interesting facts about the city of Durham. I would recommend this tour for everyone, birthdays, girls night out, couples date night or solo, a good time will be had by all.

This was by far a 5 star experience. I had such a great time. Starting with pure comedy and speaking to every one on the bus. Then we proceeded with a tour of Durham. This tour was SUPER educational, highlighting the neighborhoods of Durham and the businesses. Brandon is super knowledgeable. He thoroughly knows the history of Durham. I would love to do this again and again. I met some great people! I love that this is in Durham. It definitely makes me want to explore more of Durham and broaden my territory! Pure comedy!! Hahahah

Had a great time with Bull City Laughs! This was our first time in Durham and it was fun to explore Durham with Trevor! Such a great tour guide.

I celebrated my birthday with Bull City Laughs. Brandon (our tour guide/comedian) was an equal opportunity offender, and made me feel so freaking celebrated!! The tour was delightful way to bring friends together (many of whom hadn't met) around my favorite city in the world. I laughed for 90 minutes straight, I learned about some new gems around town...and now every time I see a police officer I start humming the Bad Boys song. I would definitely recommend the tour to anyone who wants to get to know Durham better, or needs a fun date night idea with a dope group of people.

This tour is one of a kind. The bus and whole experience is clearly / was clearly made from hard work from local Durham entrepreneurs who have a passion for showing the best spots in Durham while mixing in history and a whole lot of laughter. The comedian was hilarious and quick on his feet with commentary, props, sound effects and music. This is a great tour to get to know the city or if you've been a local for years. Ps: You'll be in for a special surprise if you pass a cop!

I was a little hesitant to book another tour based on my prior experience. But I follow Heather…read moreLeah, and her Raleigh Hidden History tour sounded right up my alley. I lucked out and found a parking spot at Tap Room. It is a small lot, so it may fill up quickly. There is another lot behind the building to the side or street parking is available. There was a street market, so it was harder to find. I did double-check that I could park at the bar when I checked in for the tour. Restrooms are available inside, and food and beverages can be brought on the trolley with a few exceptions. I liked this tour as we got a history lesson while the trolley was moving, and then we got to get off at different stops for a new perspective and not just looking out the windows. I still enjoyed looking out the windows and took some photos from there that weren't part of the tour. St. Agnes Hospital was our first stop. The stone hospital was rebuilt and opened in June 1909. It was during the Jim Crow Era for black citizens, as they were not allowed in white hospitals. We also stopped at the Heck-Andrews House. We learned of a secret tunnel and that there used to be a baseball stadium where a parking lot sits today. Devereaux Meadow was a minor league baseball stadium. I never knew a grand "Castle" (the original Meredith College) once stood near the Executive Mansion. It was a hotel and state office buildings at one point, too. It's wild that it's just a parking lot now! We got to see one of the trolley stops of the Glenwood line. It took people to Bloomsbury Park. It had electric lights at the trolley park. There was even a roller coaster, carousel, and a dance pavilion. Heather was an amazing tour guide and shared her knowledge and love of the city with us. I look forward to taking more tours with her.

Every time the drivers show up on time, know where they are going, are very friendly, and everything goes very smoothly. I am giving Greenway 5 starts because the excellent customer service. There was one instance when I first started chartering buses from Greenway where my team accidentally forgot to submit the contract. I called Marc on his cellphone just a couple hours before the event and he mentioned to me that I never submitted the contract so he assumed I went with another vendor. I informed him that we had every intention of submitting the contract and that there was a miscommunication. Marc saved the day by informing me that he would be able to have 5 buses ready by the time of my event. Even though it was short notice (on my end), the buses arrived on time and the drivers were very pleasant. I have never had any problems working with Greenway, and would recommend them anytime and every time! This is an excellent company to work with.

Marc was exactly where he said he would be on time coming and going and was flexible enough to even make a stop on the way. He was friendly and great to talk to and we really enjoyed the ride. Plus, knowing that you are helping the environment is a plus! I will definitely be taking Greenway Transit again and hope that other people will partner with them for transportation to events!

The tasting room is very basic, but the tour is great, with a lively and entertaining tour guide in addition to the flavorful liqueurs. It's more of an infusery than a distillery, since they buy their ethanol elsewhere and infuse it with various combinations of herbs, spices, and honey. Krupnikas, a Lithuanian spiced honey liqueur, is their flagship product and is most excellent. The current tasting also includes four other non-traditional liqueurs, some of which I enjoyed even more (my favorite was Zaphod, a minty guava-y summery sipper). I've been trying to mix my own infused liqueurs and am really impressed by their flavor combinations. I'm a friend of the brother Vilgalys's father, and have been tasting krupnikas for years, but their new creations blow me away! The space still needs a bit of work; go to experience the amazing flavors! If you're not sufficiently liqueured up, you can have a tasting marathon, since Ponysaurus is a very short walk away, as is Honey Girl Meadery and the new location of Bull City Ciderworks (opening soon!).

I love Krumpnikas, and I really like the tours they give here, I've been several times! It's a…read morevery small operation, but they put out a top quality product.
