The 10 Best Tours in Dallas, Texas (TX)

April 1, 2022 Enriqueta Cusson

You may have all heard that everything is bigger in Texas. Well, Dallas does its best to fulfill that promise. You'll find several museums with vast art collections and fascinating specialty museums like The Sixth Floor Museum/Texas School Book Depository, which, though small in size, offers an immense amount of information about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. And of course, visit a local steakhouse for a terrific (and enormous) meal.

We take you through the events of the day from a perspective not found on other tours. Why was JFK even in Dallas that day and why was that route for the motorcade chosen? We lay out the incredible coincidences and timing that culminated in a national tragedy that is as poignant today as it was in 1963. We also tell the story of Jackie Kennedy's tremendous loss and her overwhelming grief. A story often overlooked. You've heard how she was stoic and poised in public, which she was, but we take you deeper into the private, human side of the story. You'll stand in disbelief as you hear these untold stories and wonder if you could have withstood the same public pressure if you were in her shoes. Not just the Assassination, but other, equally devastating life experiences. We end the tour at the Sixth Floor Museum. There you can continue with a self guided tour equipped with headsets. We will help you buy tickets, give an overview of the Museum and help you with a speedy entrance.

Inclusions: Visit Dealey Plaza, Visit The Old Red Museum, Visit John F Kennedy Memorial, Shady/Air Conditioned Stops, Walking tour led by professional, entertaining, local guide, Visual aids in the form of a book of slides the guide displays

Exclusions: Sixth Floor Museum Admission (available for purchase at tour end), Gratuities

Tour guide had a lot of knowledge and information from personal eyewitnesses and years of investigating the JFK assassination. Info about Lee Harvey Oswald was extensive. Sights were all in walking distance and there was added info he told our group about the history of the surrounding area . Highly recommend.
