Fabulous Females

Friday July 24th 7:00 PM

Edison, Ford, Firestone…heck, even Harvie Heitman. Locals know the names who helped to build Fort Myers.

But what about the fabulous females who did their part?

Do you know the story of Fossie Hill and the fire of 1902? How about how a woman, her sister, and their piano helped bring baseball to the city. Or the how one woman’s love for her husband and a post office created the most iconic block in Fort Myers.

Walk with Christopher Balzano as True Tours brings its beloved journey through the other side of Downtown Fort Myers to the actual streets for the first time…and the nighttime stroll will help you beat the heat.

Full Moon Haunted

Wednesday July 29th 8:00 PM

Full moons have their own superstitions and traditions.

Turning over a coin in your pocket during one will bring good luck but never look through glass at one. A child conceived or born during one will end up mad. The spirits are a little closer to the surface of our world that night.

We like that last one.

Join spooky author and tour guide Christopher Balzano as we walk and talk history and ghostly tales and see if we can beat the lunacy together.

Sunday in the City

Now our flagship River District History Tour is offering a new way to see the city.
Welcome Sundays in the City.
True Tours will be spending Sundays showing the people of Fort Myers the city’s history in a slightly different way. Put down your brunch and pick up one of our fans.
It’s a perfect way to end the week and discover all Downtown has to offer.
