Although a little pricey, perfect for my husband who is a lifelong fan of Andy Griffith. Our pup was even allowed to ride in the backseat with me. We had the best animated and informative tour guide name Larry and jennifer, who checked us in, was a beautiful presence with a beautiful smile. After walking nearly a mile from my car, I realized we were going to need to go back before the tour and a gentleman offered to drive me. Super nice fellow ended up being the owner! My husband is handicapped and was able to sit in the front seat and really enjoy himself All around a great experience and we learned much about the show, Mount airy, and “Mayberry“. Highly recommend.

The tour was worth the money. Roger was our tour guide, and he was super kind, knowledgeable and funny. If anyone requests a tour they should request Roger to be their guide. We were able to learn a lot more about Mt. Airy that we never knew about beforehand. Great experience!

Very impressed with both tours I've taken. Drivers were super friendly and informative about things even I didn't know about the past of Mt. Airy and Andy Griffith. Highly recommend taking the Squad car tour!

The whole experience from booking our tour over the phone with the lady at the desk, to the ride along tour with our amazing chauffeur, was delightful. Our chauffeur was so knowledgeable and such a social butterfly who spent time answering questions along the ride. This was definitely our favorite part of visiting Mayberry.

We enjoyed every minute of our tour. Our 12yr old son actually asked if we could go to Mt Airy over holiday break & take this tour as part of his Christmas. Our guide grew up in Mt Airy & was very informative about the town being known for more than Mayberry. I would recommend the tour to anyone visiting this beautiful town.

We were suggested to ask for Gary... We didn't but we got him anyway and he was GREAT! Very knowledgeable of the town, very funny and a great story teller! He was patient with the kids and encouraged their engagement in the trip. Everyone had a blast and he made us take funny photos after the event... Which we will enjoy for years!

Steve (the fellow on the left side of the pic) is a fantastic tour host and made us feel right at home. Very informative, friendly, and kind. We came during Mayberry Days and thought they'd be pretty full up. But they got us in to a tour in about 45 minutes. We'd read about Steve in other reviews before going so we were excited he was our tour host.Well worth the cost. We highly recommend taking this tour before anything else in Mt. Airy (other than possibly Wally's Filling Station and the Mayberry Courthouse which are right next door) so you get the lay of the land and have a better idea of what you'd like to do next.

We loved our squad car tour. Ray was a great guide to "Mayberry" and it was definitely the highlight of our trip to town. The folks in the gift shop were friendly, and there are some "must-sees" next door as well (such as replicas of Mayberry Courthouse/Sheriff's office, Darlin Cabin, etc.). Come, unwind, relax on the front porch with an RC Cola and a Moon Pie after you schedule your tour and enjoy the time with family/friends!

This tour was a real treat...riding around town with the windows down in a 60's squad car. Our driver was Gary and he was wonderful. Husband and I had my 2 grandsons- 11 and 12 with us. Gary was great with the boys, answered all their questions and quizzed them about facts from the Andy Griffith show. They really enjoyed it and excitedly retold the experience to anyone that would listen! I really think this tour should be taken, whether you do anything else or not!

This is a must do to see and hear the stories about Andy's life. Our guide was Larry and he is very knowledgeable. We had a great tour. We also loved his sense of humor and he answered all our questions. This was the best part of our visit. Once we were done with the tour we went back to the places that interested us. The old police car was perfect for the tour and added to our trip down memory lane. Thank you again, Larry!

If you are a fan of the Andy Griffith show - the squad car tour is a must. Heck, even if you aren't a fan, it's a must! What a fantastic experience with Gary, our driver. We loved riding in the old squad car and Gary treated us like we were already close friends. He gave a great tour and you could tell he was enjoying himself as much as we were enjoying the experience. He had some playful banter with his friend Donnie before the tour started - and it just reminded me of the playful banter Andy and Barney Fife would have on the show. It made me think these two guys could've been on the Andy Griffith show with their friendly teasing of one another. Mt. Airy is a great town and is definitely Mayberry. You can tell the people who live there are just like what you would see on the show - good, kind folks who know how to do hospitality. The Squad Car tour was a lot of fun. Do it before you explore the town so you'll already know about the things you're seeing and exploring afterward.

This was the coolest tour. Its cash or personal check ONLY- no credit cards! Before we started the young lady who takes your reservation and money, took our pictures in the squad car and beside the squad car with my phone. Then Don, who has lived in the town all his life, gave us a tour in the squad car. He was so animated, had us laughing and just told us all kinds of neat facts about the Andy Griffith show, the town of Mt. Airy and the cast. We loved it and would recommend everyone take the tour, its a MUST if you visit Mt. Airy, NC If you get to Mt. Airy early in the day and want to do a late afternoon ride, I suggest that you at least go sign up before you venture in any of the shops, the reason is, it was just a basic Saturday for us and they were steady busy with rides!! So get your name on the list FIRST and then go visit the rest of the town and museums! You won't be disappointed!!!

Nice tour in a vintage Ford Galaxie! Interesting to learn several fun facts about "Mayberry", for instance - Wally's Fillin Station is the original (1937?) and Wally was a relative of Andy's (second cousin?). Drivers are a wealth of knowledge. However, a few pauses in their talk would be welcome to facilitate passengers being able to ask questions.

The jail detail was great, very similar to the show. The tour details are mostly about the town of My. Airy.
