I think the idea is great. Driving in van is limiting. The tour guide is pointing to landmarks and stuff on the left and right. I am in the middle seat and I can’t see most of what he was talking about! It was ok but it is not worth 5 stars.

Leslie_H

Preston, our tour guide, made this a fun and memorable experience. He is highly knowledgeable about Dallas and we enjoyed hearing his past experiences while living in Dallas. The van ride was comfy with plenty of room and panoramic views. I would definitely recommend this tour with him.

SaraJane_D

Orlando knows everything about Dallas. He was able to tell about Dallas and its history from his experiences. The morning of our tour he sent a photo of the meeting location and of himself so we felt more comfortable getting to the right place and person.

We had a wonderful time and learned so much about the history of the City of Dallas from our tour guide, Dan. Everything from when Texas was a part of Mexico, to when it was its own Country, to when it became a State. From the Native Americans already here, to the cattle drive era, to the assassination of JFK, to current day Dallas. So much history and little known facts, Dan made it so fun and interesting. We have lived in an outer suburb of Dallas for over a decade, and we will happily take the tour again when we have guests in town, and we recommend it to anyone visiting the area for a broad overview of Dallas, past and present. Of course, we are biased, and would request our guide Dan next time as well ! Thank you for a great experience!

Brennan M

Dan was entertaining, knowledgeable, and well informed, and left us a new outlook on philosophy -we're now fans of Occam's razor! I'd highly recommend you request him for your tour guide!

Spent about a day and half in Dallas. Was a stopover on our way to Savannah, GA. Never been here B4 so we thought a great way to see it for our full day was a tour. We were not disappointed. Learned a lot about the history of Dallas, things we never knew before. From where Bonnie and Clyde met to the architectural history to, you guessed it, the Kennedy assassination. Saw a lot and thoroughly enjoyed it.

ShirleyJean_H

Everything was correct - pick up point, mini bus, guide / driver .... the problem is that Downtown Dallas doesn't really have much to offer and the 3 or 4 most interesting things can easily be visited without going on a tour.

Kipp_S

This tour covered the major sites of Dallas that we were hoping to see. We were disappointed by negative comments and sarcasm of our leader, but would recommend the tour overall.

Nicole_T

We saw a lot and out tour guide was knowledgeable, but we only stopped and got out 2 times for a 3 hour tour. I can imagine that might be nice if it was the middle of summer and super hot, but the weather was amazing and I wanted to get pictures of some of the cool stuff we saw in dallas.
