Clay is very knowledgeable about Birmingham and was able to answer any questions we had. A great experience for the start of our girlfriends get away. This gave us a good overview of a city we didn't know anything about and he offered us many tips about things to do and places to eat.

We were picked up from our hotel on time. Clay was very knowledgeable and accommodating. It ended up to be a private tour for my husband and myself. We learned a lot the history & culture of Birmingham with the short time we had in the city. The visit to Sloss Furnace was awesome. We were also treated to a little history of the Civil Rights Movement. It was a great tour. We were happy we did it. Highly recommended

Red Clay Enterprises are professional and knowledgeable. Our guide, Clay, enjoys his job and made it fun and interesting for us. We drove to different sights throughout the city and then walked around learning facts and history. I highly recommend this tour. It is the best way to learn about Birmingham on this three hour tour. Also, they will pickup and drop off at your hotel within the city.

My husband found out about this natl historical landmark that explains the history of the iron industry in Birmingham. Inside movie and gift shop. Outside walking trail weaves in and out of the old factory. If weather is cool, take a jacket! Very interesting part of the city’s past and present. Small admission.

Clay enterprises, father and son tour business. Brilliant, this particular tour run by the son and like the father very informative, whilst taking us around full of interesting information and facts and they also welcome any info that they hadn't covered, very obliging when needed toilet break, and whilst traveling to next sight see, he pointed out all places of interest and the history. Would highly recommend them. The father does the civil rights tour which I also recommend excellent.
