About ME
HI, I'm Amanda
I am a history nerd, preservationist and UNC Wilmington alumni.
After 25 years in hotels and restaurants, I started a tour business in 2021 out of my love for this area and its vibrant and fascinating history and culture. I am always curious about how things came to be the way they are and history explains that ! I currently own my 4th historic bungalow.
When I am not touring I love to hang out at the beach with my dog or cook.
I am a Sommelier and I teach wine classes as a side hustle.
I volunteer for three historic preservation organizations locally. I look forward to hosting you in my adopted hometown very soon.
For groups, I can customize a historic Wilmington walking tour or a history tour that explores Wilmington, Carolina Beach or Southport, tailoring the itinerary to highlight your interests in the area. If you have a special request for Wilmington walking tours, feel free to send me a message, and we'll ensure to get back to you soon.
