Overall, my family and I had a great experience. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tour consisted of 25% sightseeing prominent Dallas landmarks, 25% ghost stories, and 50% touring landmarks and learning about the JFK assassination. Since it was raining for part of the tour, we visited the sights primarily by van, it we were able to get out and walk around for most of the stops. Whether you’re visiting Dallas for the first time, or, like me, have lived here several years, I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to hear an entertaining history of the city.
