About this tour

Trace Salt Lake City’s journey from pioneer settlement to modern metropolis on a historical walking tour led by a passionate local guide. Along the way, explore historic neighborhoods that reflect the city’s diverse communities, from Greek Town to Little Italy, and hear stories of early settlers, cultural landmarks, and architectural marvels.

The relaxed walk offers a personal way to connect with the city’s past, with a knowledgeable guide sharing context as you move through its streets. Bottled water is included, and the small-group atmosphere makes the experience feel more like exploring with a local than following a traditional tour. Meet at the main entrance of the FamilySearch Center, where your guide will be easy to spot by an official Matei Travel badge and backpack. Arrive 10 minutes early; the guide waits up to 15 minutes.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
