Hello Neighbor! The Mister Rogers Walking Tour!

Welcome to our Winter Park neighborhood on this beautiful day!

You’ll learn fascinating tidbits about how Fred was motivated by a mural in Winter Park to begin a lifetime ministry of serving others.

Thinking about getting the Mister Rogers Walking Tour as a gift!

I’m looking to surprise my sister with something special for her birthday and thought about the Mister Rogers Walking Tour in Winter Park. She grew up watching Mister Rogers and loves everything about him. The idea of walking in the same places he did sounds so cool, plus the free gelato stop is a nice touch! Has anyone done this tour before? Any tips?

Just did the Mister Rogers Walking Tour!

Wow, just got back from the Mister Rogers Walking Tour in Winter Park. It was amazing! The guide shared some really cool stories about Fred’s time there, and the gelato was delicious. I went with my kids, and they loved it too! Highly recommend it for anyone looking to do something unique.
