About
Take a step back in time as you explore the "Wild Women of Sarasota."
You will hear about Mary Jane Whittaker and her contemporaries on this story filled walking tour. As early homesteaders, they were faced with extreme heat of summer, swarms of insects, many snakes, alligators, and Indians!
While the 1920s was "Boom & Bust" period, the memorable women of that time often went unnoticed by their male counterparts and history. We will change that with stories of the ladies even locals haven’t heard about!
At the end of the tour you will partake of a toast to these amazing women with a glass of wine, a copy of Bertha’s Brownies recipe and plenty of time to chat.

Parking: We suggest that you park in the 2nd Street City Parking Garage above the Whole Foods parking. The entrance to the free parking for 4 hrs on levels 2-4 is on 2nd St.
Parking is also available in the Palm Avenue parking garage on Palm Avenue. Please be aware that the City of Sarasota charges for parking there after 2 hrs. The third hour is $3 and it is $1 per hour after that. As the city is growing substantially, parking 'can' be a issue so please allow enough time to find alternative parking in the event the garage is full and still meet your guide at the designated time/location.
Please note that all tours require a minimum of 4 people. This does not mean one party must book 4 individuals, but that our total headcount achieves the minimum. We will notify you if we have not reached this capacity and will always strive to accommodate our valued guests!

In the event of a tour cancellation by Key Culinary/Sarasota Suncoast Tours our guests will always have the option of rescheduling to another tour or receiving a full refund upon contacting our office.
