Trip Advisor calls our tours the "#1 Thing to Do In Buffalo" because our tours blend humor and history. Your guide is Officer O'Connor, an Irish Cop with uniform and full brogue who brings to life the amazing story of Buffalo. You will discover how Buffalo grew from a small frontier village to become the 8th largest city in America. Your guide uses storytelling and humor to reveal the hard scrabble lives of immigrants who came to the city seeking a better life. The start of this event is the interior tour of an abandoned grain silo on the waterfront. You will explore and experience the dangers and mysteries entombed in this massive concrete cathedral to Buffalo's industrial past. The driving portion of the tour covers the city's beautiful waterfront featuring the Outer Harbor. A sense of humor is best for this engaging tour that is filled with laughs and great stories of Buffalo's beautiful, and sometimes notorious, waterfront.
We take you inside a massive abandoned grain elevator and reveal the secrets of what life was like working as an Irish Grain Scooper. The industrial complex is 100% accessible as we explore the ground floor only. This is the only tour that has special access to this awe inspiring structure that formerly housed up to 1 Million bushels of grain.
