We had a fantastic day with Erin, she was friendly, knowledgeable and made sure we had the best viewing spot for the cattle drive. Gave us loads of information about Texas and its history. Erin even made sure that we had a reservation for lunch which was a great help. Would definitely book with Erin and Rebecca again
