- Engaging, knowledgeable storytellers make local history memorable at an enjoyable pace.
Four of us did the Holiday History Tour last night. It's the 3rd tour we've been on with Forbidden and it was as good as all the others. Our guide Marina was excellent; great storytelling and just the right pace for an enjoyable walk…
Glenn was our guide, an amazing, engaging storyteller who was very knowledgeable about the history of Vancouver. History never sticks in my mind, but he made it so interesting with a side of juicy gossip, I could tell my friends about it!…
