Ever wondered how Raleigh went from sleepy hamlet to the bustling Oak City we know today? Join a historian-guided walking tour every Sunday from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm, starting at Jimmy V’s Osteria + Bar. For just $14, you’ll hit the pavement, soak in some local lore, and gain a fresh perspective on Raleigh’s historical hotspots. No boring lectures here—just fun facts, charming monuments, and a whole lot of “who knew?” moments.
Not sponsored (we’re not that sneaky). We just think history is cooler when you walk through it.
