Why Jordan's Tours
A simple idea, close to home.
I love Port Hope, I love meeting new people, and I genuinely enjoy showing people around town. So I figured I might as well combine all three.

I wanted to offer the kind of tour I would enjoy: small enough for questions, relaxed enough to notice the details, and grounded in the real place, not just a checklist of pins on a map.
A Walk Through Derry was the obvious place to begin. People already come to Port Hope to find the streets and landmarks they recognize from IT. A guided walk is a chance to connect those screen moments to the town that is actually here, including what changed for filming, what stayed the same, and the local stories in between.
More than filming locations
People may arrive looking for Derry, but they are standing in Port Hope.
My job is to help the places mean something while you are in front of them. That means conversation, useful context, time for photos, room for questions, and a few bits of Port Hope history along the way.
There is no big tour-company script here. Jordan's Tours is intentionally small, local and personal. If the group ends up swapping favourite scenes or going down an unexpected local-history rabbit hole, that is part of the fun.
