Greetings and welcome to Pittsburgh! My name is Mary Ann and it will be my pleasure to show you around what locals refer to as "The Burgh". I specialize in well organized high end relaxing tours. It is my wish that all of my guests enjoy their time spent in Pittsburgh. I will work with you to ensure the best experience possible. Pittsburgh is a city in southwestern Pennsylvania situated on three rivers and rich in history, culture and tradition. Currently, I live in the Mt Washington neighborhood which overlooks the city and is home to the famous Monogahela and Duquesne inclines. Mt Washington is centrally located making it easy to customize the flow of your selected tour package (based on your hotel location) so we are able to manage our time wisely. In addition, I was born and raised just south of the city so I am quite familiar and able to navigate in the outlying areas as well. From Oakland to the North Side, or the Strip district to the South Side and many points in between, it will be my pleasure to share the many mysteries of Pittsburgh with you!

Overview of your Pittsburgh tour

The Appalachian Mountains run through PA and create the watershed where Fallingwater is located in Fayette County, PA. Fallingwater was built in the small town of Bear Run, just about an hour and a half drive south of Pittsburgh in the Laurel Highlands. Fallingwater is the only major Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house to open to the public with its furnishings, artwork, and setting intact. It instantly became famous, and today it is a National Historic Landmark. Visited by over 167, 000 people in 2015.
