We met with Pat Hall, the owner of the Oswald rooming house. Her mother was the owner at the time of the assassination. So she knew him when she was about 11 years old. She recited the story of how “Mr Lee” as she called him would help her with her homework and how he was always so kind to her. My most memorable moment was when she professed that she did not believe that Lee Harvey Oswald killed President Kennedy! It was the CIA!

Don't miss this opportunity to see where history happened. Being so close to the scenes and distances of the actual Book Depository are revealing. Giancarlo, our tour guide, and the area were informative and interesting. Thank you.

Guide was excellent story teller . Unfortunately I have forgotten his name but he is a credit to your company and I loved his style. You can tell he has a real passion for the whole unsavoury saga. It was always my dream to come over from Australia and do this tour. Will remember forever.

I can't say enough about this tour. Tim was awesome and had a ton of interesting facts and tidbits. Plus the visit to Oswald's rooming house...possibly the creepiest feeling I've ever experienced. I highly recommend the tour before the museum...you won't regret it

This was a really good, informative tour. Our tour guide Evan was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly.

Viator certifies its tour operators. This was clear when we met John. He gave us a coherent and clear walk through the events of that tragic date. It included the motorcade route, where Jack Ruby was shot, and the ensuing route that Lee Harvey Oswald took to flee. We were able to go inside the rooming house where he stayed, and even met the granddaughter of the owner of the home, who now lives there. Lee Harvey Oswald played with her when she was an 11 year old girl. It ended at the 6th floor museum in the book depository in Dealey Plaza with more information given to us at on the “grassy knoll.” I cannot recommend this tour enough. I had some ideas about what happened that day, and had done extensive reading. John walked us through the crime as we toured and learned so much I didn’t know. John was able to engage us all and answer questions. I have nothing but praise for his expertise, kindness, and professionalism. I’d like to return with my husband and hope that John is our tour guide again. I want to add that if you go to Dealey Plaza be wary of people purporting to be experts. They want your money and most of them don’t have the expertise that Viator’s tour operators do.

Took this tour in an absolute downpour and thunderstorm. Despite the terrible weather conditions, our tour guide, John Papaleo, was wonderful. He was upbeat, very engaging, most knowledgeable of the history of the assassination, and his Italian accent was delightful. I just wish the weather had cooperated because we were so looking forward to this tour. We learned a lot but nice weather would have made it so much more enjoyable.

John, our narrator, was extremely knowledgeable about the events leading up to the assassination. He made the tour interesting and fun. The x marks in the road from each shot was neat to see. The museum had a lot of interesting history as well.
