Return to a time when the mob ran Galveston and their guests were treated as if they were family. When you crossed the bridge you enter "The Free State of Galveston," where the only rules were mob rules. The stars of the era were world class entertainers brought in to perform in the casinos, including Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin. Everyone was enjoying their own "Vegas Dream" right here in Galveston.

It was a dark and stormy night! So Rob threw in some ghost stories with the tour. I’m a haunted tour guide with Haunted ATX in Austin, Tx, so this was perfect for our group. Hearing about the history of some of the women of Galveston was so fascinating. I would recommend grabbing a cocktail at Daiquiri Time Out while in the area.

We really enjoyed our stop here. They make very high quality oils and other oil products from their own olives. Their premiums oils are first cold pressed. The products are pricey. Their store has a wide variety of excellent goods. The staff was very helpful. On one side of their building is a small café that serves lunch and snacks. We had a charcuterie that was plenty for two. All the items on the board were delicious. We also had an olive oil and fruit gelato that was very nice. They also offer a variety of sandwiches and salads. I highly recommend a visit here and investing in some of their excellent offerings.

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.

I had family visiting from the east coast and they were curious about Houston's cuisine. What better way to show of the amazing food in the city than on a food tour. All the restaurants and choices of food were phenomenal. We also got to visit the tunnel system which I had never been to or heard of and I have been in Houston for 15+ years. The food tour is ran so professional and unique. Our tour guided also took amazing covid precautions; from offering hand sanitizer at each spot and having the tables cleaned off with Clorox wipes. My family visiting also did Astroville's tunnel tour during the day and they loved it. We got send great photos of the tour after.

We enjoyed our tour with Jeremy. He obviously loves his job and delivers an incredible amount of historical knowledge interlaced with bits of interesting trivia and sprinkled with the whispers of Galveston’s spirits. He is so enthusiastic and passionate that you cannot help but get caught up in his tales as you walk the dark streets of the city. My only suggestion would be a bit of editing as sometimes there was simply too much information to absorb. As a tour guide myself, I have a pitcher of information in my head but only present a cup-full to my tour participants knowing they will only remember the amount in a shot glass. Thank you for a great evening, Jeremy!

100% recommended. We briefly stopped in Houston on our way back home from New York and decided to book this tour on a whim to see if would see anything before our second flight. Our guide was on time, personable, and very knowledge. She even stopped at multiple neat spots to take photos of the groups who remained social distanced throughout (think either 7 to 8 of us in total so didn't feel packed) A very thorough presentation worth every penny with videos and info to keep you interested and hooked on for more to the last minute. The tour was one of the best walking tours I have ever been on including in my travels to Asia and Europe and served as a lovely introduction into the culture, architecture, and history of city that definitely doesn't seem to promote itself as much as it should.......But maybe that is all of Texas!
