Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this walking tour? I'm thinking of bringing my kids.

A: There’s no strict age limit for the Wesleyan Cemetery tour, but it’s best for older kids who can appreciate the history. Ken is great at engaging with younger audiences, so it could be fun for them! Just keep in mind the walking part, as some paths can be uneven. If you have little ones, it might be a good idea to bring a stroller.

Q: What should I wear for the tour? Is it a lot of walking?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since it’s a walking tour! The cemetery has some hills and uneven ground, so sneakers or good walking shoes are a must. Dress for the weather too. If it's sunny, a hat or sunscreen would be smart, and if it’s chilly, layers are key. Ken keeps it casual, so you won’t feel out of place.

Q: What if it rains? Can you reschedule easily?

A: If it rains, Ken is pretty flexible! You can usually reschedule your tour without much hassle, but it’s always good to give him a heads-up. Just check the weather forecast the day before and reach out if it looks grim. That way, you can ensure you have the best experience possible!

Just did the Wesleyan Cemetery Tour with Ken—what an experience!

I recently went on the tour at Wesleyan Cemetery in Cincinnati with Ken Naegele, and I can't recommend it enough! He’s so knowledgeable about the history of the area and the notable figures buried there. It was really touching to hear their stories and see how they are remembered. The tour itself was about 2 hours, and we had a beautiful day for it. Totally worth it for anyone interested in history!

Considering the Historic Wesleyan Cemetery Tour as a gift—thoughts?

I’m looking at this for my mom’s birthday. She loves history and enjoys walking tours. I’ve never been on one, but I’ve heard good things about Ken. Is it engaging enough for someone who’s not super into history, or is it more for the real enthusiasts?
