Why choose this Minneapolis-Saint Paul tour ?
For 2 hours, take a private, guided stroll along charming and historic Summit Ave. in St. Paul, Minnesota, past stately homes built during the Victorian era that are nearly perfectly preserved today. You’ll hear stories about the barons and tycoons who built these homes and how their houses have survived 120 or more years of change. You’ll also wind through a former back alley now transformed into a charming city street that features modern residences in historic structures.
Residential architecture buffs will spot nearly every type of home style popular during the Victorian era – Queen Anne, Italianate, Georgian Revival, Neo-classical, Romanesque, Beaux Arts, Tudor and more.
Love grand, old homes that are pristinely preserved as active residences? Enjoy meandering outdoor sidewalks among trees, parks, fine landscapes and beautiful buildings? This tour is for you.
