I recently moved to the area for work and needed frequent
airport transport. Tim provided reliable, punctual
service—always arriving early, assisting with luggage, and
adapting to my delayed return flight without issue. He even
offered a city tour at my request. Easily the best travel
experience I’ve had. I’ll be using Tim exclusively from now
on. 5 stars!

Tim’s knowledge of the local area is evident in his tours. A
recent pre-lunch tour of both NKC the underground was
informative and eye-opening. He was incredibly accommodating,
making the experience truly unforgettable.

We had an excellent time touring Kansas City with Tim. The
airport pickup was timely and the communication great. Tim is
a wealth of knowledge about the area and kept us laughing the
entire tour. We saw and heard about the past, present, and
future of the area. By the end of the tour, it felt like we
were old friends. My wife and I look forward to our next trip
to Kansas City and seeing some more sites with Tim.

Tim’s knowledge, insight, and passion for Kansas City is
apparent. He took us to fascinating places like an underground
business park and the Hey Hey Room (speakeasy at the
beautifully restored J. Rieger Distillery) that we would never
have found out about on our own. Tim embodies midwest
hospitality and provides a safe, comfortable tour sprinkled
with enough anecdotes and humor to make historic places come
alive.

I've used Tim's airport service twice. He was on time and
very attentive to our itinerary. He was also very cordial and
provided lovely conversation. It may be a bit more expensive
than a ride share, but Tim is worth it.
