You are missing out if you haven't taken a tour with Raleigh Walking Tours. Raleigh Walking Tours…read moreare provided by Tricia who is a very personable tour guide. Her dedication shows in all the research and details provided on the tours. Raleigh Walking Tours started with tours of Oakwood, so I discovered the company as I love seeing the historic houses and the different styles of architecture. Oakwood has Queen Annes, Second Empires, Neoclassical, mid-Victorian Venacular, Shotgun, and Craftsman. I get them all confused but Tricia can tell you about each of them and why they have a certain porch or roof, window and door placement and other features. I've taken the tour enough times I should remember but my mind just appreciates looking at them. The Oakwood tours now are offered a few times in the spring and in the fall when the houses are decorated for Halloween. The spring tours is different from the fall tour so you will see and learn about other houses. The Halloween House and the Nightmare on Elm Street houses are part of the fall tour. Besides the Oakwood tour, Raleigh Walking Tour has many other tours. The tours all have different starting points, and you are provided with detailed information as to where to park beforehand. The True Crimes and Curious Tales is my favorite tour. You get to learn about different crimes that happened in Raleigh and some strange happenings. I also enjoy art and street art has been something I look for so there are mural and public art tours as well. Raleigh has a lot of it, and I wouldn't have discovered as much as I did without the tour. But just seeing it is one thing and on the tour you get to learn more about it. A new tour is at Raleigh Iron Works. I did not know of the history of RIW before the tour. I just knew of the mixed use development that opened. But it had been a steel company with a fascinating history, and in WWI was a munitions and artillery shell plant. The buildings are neat to learn about then there is art to see on this tour too. Then there are Haunted History, Ghost Tours, Women's History Tours. I feel like I am forgetting a few others. But there are a variety of offerings. If you want to take a tour, just register on the website. Tours are pay what you think the tour was worth. If you are visiting from out of town or a local, you will learn something new on these tours.

I really enjoyed my 1st Raleigh Walking Tour Downtown for the Fall Historic Oakwood Tour. Historic…read moreOakwood is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Raleigh to gaze in amazement at many Victorian and Queen Anne dream homes. The neighborhood is a National Register of Historic Places and is North Carolina's largest, intact 19th Century residential neighborhood. These dream homes belong to many wealthy and artistic homeowners. Each home makes you feel like you've stepped back into time centuries ago never losing the beauty of the house's true age. During the holidays you can expect for each home to be all decked out. Oakwood is home to Jesse Jones and the famous " Halloween Oakwood House". A true spooky sight to see each year in October. The Walking Tours are an excellent way to learn about the area and get your steps in. Tricia was our tour guide and she was wonderful. She was organized and provided lots of details prior to the event. Parking is plentiful in Oakwood and we started the tour at the NC Medical Society. Tricia has a talent for what she does and shared amazing facts and history on each home and business. Her knowledge on architecture was impressive. We walked the blocks of Elm, Lane, Oakwood, Person and Linden learning the history of homeowners like Annie Brantley. You make a donation at the end of the tour and pay what you see fit. I plan to attend a candlelight Oakwood Tour soon and look forward to attending another local walking tour.

So really cheap fun, while getting a little history lesson.

We had perfect weather -- but can't imagine doing this in the pouring rain -- it would definitely add to the adventure. We started at a bar -- can't recall the name but there was plenty of parking, and we grabbed some waters from the bar before we left as it was pretty humid out. An important note is that it is BYOB and you can't take the alcoholic drinks off of the trolley. Bringing a well stocked cooler is a great idea. I also suggest to wear sneakers (for pedaling), and exercise clothes -- although important to point out that the trolley does have a motor so if you aren't good at pedaling, you don't really have to -- the driver can make it as hard or as easy as you want. I really liked our driver but for the life of my I cannot recall his name!! He was super funny. After a brief safety discussion, we mounted our bicycle seats. To note -- the seats are real bicycle seats and you must wear your seat belt -- I am a big girl and the seatbelt fit me. Also they have a regular seat at the very back -- My butt started hurting after the first couple of stops so I sat on the seat -- I called it my Queen seat. Also you can hook into their blue tooth to play your own music -- that was super fun! We had a local in our group, so he was able to give some good suggestions for places to stop -- Our first stop was The Johnson Street Yacht club -- a fantastic dive bar with a slide on the outside!! Very divey. Then we pedaled to the Ugly Monkey Party Bar -- another good dive bar. I know we went to one other place but I cannot recall what it was called. My group had a great time -- I would have liked to have a little more time -- we felt a little rushed at the end. However, it was a great way to see Raleigh!! I would recommend!!

The weather was horrible- warm rain - and the vibes were high. He even let us take an extra stop to fuel our energy before walking to another bar after it concluded. Would highly recommend for big groups looking to explore Raleigh.

Basically, it is a scavenger hunt/trivia/blind taste testing event through several breweries. We had a great time figuring out the clues to get us to the next location and it took me to some places I never would have tried. I liked that it was self-guided so we could spend as much time at any of the places and not feel rushed. I will definitely check them out again and think it would be even more fun in a city that I am not familiar with (and they have locations in Charlotte, Asheville, and Raleigh)!

I thought it would be more of a scavenger hunt, but the main focus is a beer tasting test. I think the beer samples for the tasting should be small (like a half shot glass) and then you should get to pick your half pour from a select menu or something. Two of us don't like some of the hoppy beers, so my husband ended up drinking several of the beers and didn't get to buy any other beer he actually wanted. Other than that, we really enjoyed ourselves. The bartender at the last stop was particularly awesome and all of the bartenders knew what was going on and were really welcoming and cool about it.
