I went on the Summer Sampler and it was fantastic! It was their first tour out for the 2021 season. Dick, the tour guide, is wonderful. He gives a lot of interesting background along they way that you would not learn otherwise. All of the stops were fun and I will probably do it again.

Due to the COVID situation they were not operating during our visit, yet Sharon still took time to provide wonderful insight and recommendations. We are so thankful for her kindness and would use this business the next time we find ourselves in the area!

I called Sharon in the middle of this Covid nightmare. She is unable to give us a tour because of the small seating in her van. That being said knowing that I am not even going to be a paying client of hers she was so gracious. She spoke to me personally about how much she loves the area and sent me a detailed email of places we may want to see based on what I told her we might like to do. I had more questions for her and she emailed me back with a list of restaurants and other destinations. She is so professional and passionate about her job. I am only sorry she won’t be there when we are but I urge anyone to use her service she is top notch.

We had two glorious days in Manchester and the surrounding areas. Our highlight Thursday was a personal tour with Sharon on Backyard Discovery.
I would guess we traveled 30 miles on all kinds of roads and into hamlets full of National history on a two hour and more adventure. Sharon is delightful and has a wealth of local history and trivia that left
us feeling almost like a Vermonter !
We would highly recommend Backyard Discovery
as a part of your visit on any Vermont get-away.

Sharon was extremely knowledgeable on the history of the area while always engaging us in conversation. We learned so much about our state that we are so fond of living in. We can't wait to test our friends with our new-found knowledge. We highly recommend this tour to residents and visitors.
