Tampa Riverwalk: An Audio Tour

Despre activitate

Tampa’s waterfront tells a story of soldiers, cigar makers, pirates, and bold reinvention. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover how this former military shipping hub transformed into a vibrant destination. The tour starts at Sparkman Wharf, where soldiers once boarded ships bound for Europe during World War I, and cargo vessels moved cigars, citrus, and cattle through Tampa Bay. You’ll stroll along the Tampa Riverwalk, past monuments honouring Vicente Martinez-Ybor, the Spanish entrepreneur who turned Tampa into the cigar capital of the world. I’ll also share stories of mob bosses controlling gambling operations from Ybor City, and you’ll discover how Cuban, Spanish, and Italian immigrants built Ybor City’s thriving culture in the late 1800s. The tour ends at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park, where festivals, concerts, and cultural institutions make this downtown’s vibrant heart.
