      Informative, witty, and memorable
      Our guide provided knowledgeable history which made the tour memorable. His excellent driving through heavy traffic while describing the sites was remarkable 🤯. We spent nearly an hour (too long) on JFK'S assassination. Recommend this event.

      A must do in Dallas
      Richard is a fantastic tour guide. He is a great storyteller, filled with intricate details of the assassination and the life of Lee Harvey Oswald. You drive most of the tour, but stop and walk around at the shooting location. You get to briefly go inside the home where Oswald was staying. You have great perspective by the end and should be able to formulate an opinion of what really happened. Definitely worth your time if you are looking for one thing to do in Dallas.

      Exciting trip!
      I travelled from Australia to Texas and was staying in Dallas for 3 days. I have always wanted to go to Fort Worth to see the cattlewalk. This tour was perfect for my short trip as it was a half day 4 hour tour with convenient pickup from downtown. I had so much fun going to Fort Worth to see the city itself and also to know more about cowboys and I finally see the cattlewalk! Also, huge thanks to the friendly tour guide who made the tour more fun! :)

      Preston knows Texas
      Our guide Preston was extremely knowledgeable. He is a wealth of information from the origins of Texas to present day. The tour gives a great introduction to the neighborhoods of Dallas, like a hop on/hop off bus tour but more in depth. That being said, the van was comfortable and I never felt rushed at any of the sites. There is one bathroom break on the tour, at the Farmers Market (but of course Preston knows where there are bathrooms along the tour route). He also gave me recommendations for the remainder of my trip outside of Dallas, which were spot on. I'd recommend this tour especially if you what a comprehensive, overview of Dallas. Our tour guide Preston really made the difference- a true historian, preservationist, and local.

      Preston was incredibly knowledgeable and also shared lots of insights into Dallas itself outside of the JFK experience. Highlight of my time in Dallas

      Excellent informative tour
      I hadn't realised how complex the JFK assassination case was and our guide, Preston, was able to inform us of the history; what was known and circumstantial. His story telling was amazing and had us hooked! He cleverly gave us the information, as he knew it, and left us to debate what happened afterwards. We're still not in agreement!

      Dan was a fantastic tour guide! I would highly recommend going on this tour to learn about what all happened leading up to JFK's assassination. We got to see the location, follow his path, and go into the museum too.

    I highly recommend this tour--it was an amazing experience! Johnny was an incredible, fun guide. He knew a TON about the city and was able to answer all the inquisitive questions we threw his way. :) I especially enjoyed all the insider nuggets and stories he threw in from what he's seen growing up in Dallas. This tour was perfect and exactly what my family was looking for. Even the bathroom pit stop was fun! And because we're in this crazy covid time, everything was well sanitized and smelled amazing and clean upon our arrival. Book this tour!!

    Johnny was the best tour guide. We had a fun and informative private tour that we enjoyed from start to end. He had so much energy, hit all the important historical stops, and gave us an introduction to all the Dallas neighborhoods that helped guide the rest of our trip. Thanks Johnny!

    PS. He also took an amazing picture our of group!

    After reading reviews and looking at Travelers pictures, I purchased 4 tickets for a 1:15 (75minute) tour.

    The communications were effective, and we arrived at the JFK Memorial a few minutes early. William greeted us at the brand new tour bus.

    The tour was full with 10 people plus William on the bus.

    We waited for a couple of stragglers to arrive. As a result, William talked about the history of Dallas for the first 15 minutes while we sat in front of the memorial.

    We drove around the block, and stopped while he talked to us for another 5 minutes.

    We drove to the area where JFK was shot and got off of the bus.

    We got back onto the bus after 10 minutes of and drove to the statues of the bronze kettle. They are we got off of the bus for another 10 minutes. We got back onto the bus a final time and looped back around to the JFK Memorial.

    I would not recommend the one hour and 15 minute tour. I would, also, not recommend seeking out William as the tour guide. While my opinion is completely subjective and only my opinion, his historical knowledge was overshadowed by his efforts to be clever and failure to engage to understand what his tourists wanted to get out of the tour.

    As a result of my experience, I am rating this at three out of five.

    It was our fist time in Dallas and we took the 3 hours minivan tour. Our guide Dan was great! He was very knowledgeable, passionate about the city and the historical events that have taken place. We learned and sow the most significant part of the city. I would recommend this tour for everyone who is visiting here and especially for those who are visiting for first time. We had great 3 hours and we are thankful for meeting Danny!

    Preston was our extremely knowledgeable certified Dallas historian who made this tour fun, interesting, and gave us so much intriguing Information about the past, present, and future of this beautiful city! We were set for 75 minutes but he let us know from the beginning he likes to take us a full 90 minutes to explore all the key points of the various neighborhoods as long as we were ok for time. We felt very fortunate to have such a passionate guide who’s own family dates back to Dallas from the very first generations of settlers. Thank you Preston!!

    This was our first time ever visiting Dallas. We wanted to get a quick overview of the city, and its sightseeing highlights. This tour was quick, but it seemed to focus only on the West End of the city. We didn't see much else besides the Kennedy sites and bronze steer public art. But it was enjoyable, the guide (Alex) and company was enjoyable, and we learned a lot about Dallas (all the people are moving around through underground tunnels).

    The tour guide Preston was very knowledgeable about the Dallas area and history of Dallas. Would highly recommend. There was one person on the van that wanted to take the tour over out talking the tour guide which is why I gave it 4/5. Just sit back and listen you can ask questions but please don't take over the tour
