The Squad Car Tour was the highlight of our trip. I recommend doing this first as you will find out a lot about Mt Airy and Andy Griffith and figure out what are must see places. Our tour guide was Norman and we felt like we were literally riding with Andy and Barney. Reservations are not required, but if you call ahead, request Norman as your tour guide. You will not be disappointed! Also bring cash, they don't take credit cards, and a tip for your driver.

Tour is less than a half hour, but very entertaining. Trip to quarry used about half the time, but considered it filler. Interesting but not pertinent to Andy Griffith.

As Andy would say, the Mayberry Squad car tours is "Extra Good". From the minute we climbed in the Ford Galaxy with our guide Roger, we felt like we had an old friend showing us around town. Roger made our trip! It was just like an episode of the show... there was laughs, jokes, and a great moral story at the end that pulls at your heart. Thank you Roger for a wonderful time!

THIS was one of the highlights of our five week trip around the Carolinas and Virginia. Can’t say enough good things about the drivers. Local fellas who know ALL about the history of the area, the show, Andy, and all the other stars. With a VERY special shout out to ours (I’m REALLY bad with names) for not tossing me in jail with Otis for not having cash to pay. Appreciated the extra time to go back to the bank for a little withdrawal!😬🤣

Absolutely awesome guide for our Mayberry Tour in the squad car! He was very knowledgeable and I wish I could remember his name. Saw all the hotspots including the quarry. Recommend to any Mayberry enthusiasts to start your tour of the town with this ride first. You will be so glad you did!

We had a good time on our tour with guide Mike. He told us lots of extra information since we are fans of the show. If going on a busy Saturday I would advise go early when they open or call and get a reservation.

We had a fantastic time on our tour. We learned so much we didn’t know about Mt Airy and Mayberry. Our guide was so friendly. When our tour ended, we mentioned that we were walking to the Andy Griffith museum… He then drove us there! I found my Mayberry.

Guide was excellent! Lots of interesting facts and stories. Warning if the lady at the tourist center says you can walk to the tour from there, don't do it. Luckily our guide was willing to drop us back at our car. Would ride again it was so fun!

Always a fun experience when you're in town. They do a great job getting you into that Mayberry spirit.

Everyone should do these tours as soon as they get to the area. We did it on our 2nd day and due to the tour found more things we were interested in visiting. LOVED the granite stop. Wish I could get a piece of MtAiry granite. Our tour guide later on would point to the various building that have the granite on their exterior. Our tour guide was friendly & so knowledgeable. OH big heads-up: they don’t accept credit cards so make sure you have cash handy.

We brought our dear friends from Illinois. The squad car tour of Mt. Airy was the highlight of the day, In large part thanks to our tour guide, "Don Nutts" who was in character right from the beginning when he handcuffed my Illinois friend's wife for stealing chickens. "Don" was not a character from the show, but he was indeed a character! On top of his personality and humor, he proved incredibly knowledgeable about the show, the characters and everything Andy Griffith. Four of us enjoyed the $50.00 per carload tour. It was well worth the reasonable price.

The quaint little shop offers souvenirs. Cindy was extremely friendly! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and you could tell he enjoys doing the tours. It was a great tour, I learned Andy Griffith facts I never knew. The teenage boys with me just loved the old car.

“Stormin’ Norman” was the best! He was very knowledgeable about Mayberry, Mount Airy, and of course Andy Griffith. It was so fun to ride in the squad car and learn about the local lore- we want to do it again!

Lived in NC 24 years and first trip to Mt Airy and I think we did it all. But you must start your visit with the Squad Car Tour. You’ll learn more than just the Andy Griffith story. We had Carroll and he was awesome!

We did a tour today with Stormin' Norman as our guide. What a great experience! I would suggest doing this on your first day in Mt Airy. The guide gave us a lot of ideas on what to do and where to eat when in Mt Airy. The lady answering the phone was very friendly. Also, we appreciated that we were able to bring our dog on the tour. Thank you for making us feel so welcomed.

Excellent tour! We had a lot of fun doing this. We road around in a time period accurate squad car and our guide showed us sites around the older part of the city that inspired places and stories from the Andy Griffith show. We also learned a little about the city itself and got to see the largest granite mine in the world.

My husband and I did the Squad Car tour while visiting Mt Airy. Our guide was very nice and informative. It was a nice tour around town and the information about Andy Griffith was very interesting. Worth the money. This is about the only neat thing about the whole town. Replica of the courthouse and jail is next door. It was a lot of fun!

Although we thought the tour was a little pricey ($50 for 2 people), we thoroughly enjoyed our tour guide (Roger). He knew so much about the area and Andy Griffith and that made it very interesting. Thanks Roger!
