- **Event Description**: Step Into the Roaring Twenties: Fitzgerald’s Summer in Westport – A Tour Like No Other! 

Picture this: It’s the summer of 1920, and Westport, a quiet farm town, becomes the summer escape for one of New York’s most glamorous couples—F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. Seeking a breath of fresh air from their whirlwind Jazz Age lifestyle, the Fitzgeralds retreat to a charming 18th-century farmhouse, a silent witness to revolution and the birth of a nation. 

In this idyllic setting, Zelda swims in the sparkling waters of the Long Island Sound, while Scott, inspired by the calm, works furiously on what would become his magnum opus—The Great Gatsby. The magic of this summer shaped his legendary novel, and now you have the chance to walk in the very footsteps that inspired one of the greatest American tales ever told. 

Join us for a lively and immersive 90-minute tour through the stunning landscapes that once captivated the Fitzgeralds. As you stroll through the picturesque sites that influenced Scott’s writing, you’ll step back in time to a world of flappers, jazz, and literary genius. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a journey into the heart of the Jazz Age. 

Be prepared for a vigorous, yet stunning walk through one of the East Coast’s most enchanting settings. Don’t forget to bring water and wear your most comfortable shoes for this unforgettable, Gatsby-esque adventure.
