Everything was great. Michael was a great tour guide. I don’t appreciate the push for tips though. We got told in the beginning and end that they accepts tips in different forms. Felt very pressured. The tour isn’t cheap to begin with and we are paying for the service. I am not a fan of being pressured to tip. If he went over and above for us, we are perfectly happy to tip but when people push for tips like that, it puts a sour taste in my mouth.

I'm from the East Coast & you couldn't walk this very large city so it was good opportunity for an overview. Dan was so knowledgeable, friendly & helpful I would have signed up for another tour he was doing immediately after but for a conflict that arose in my schedule. I learned things I had no idea about, very enjoyable. I already recommended to someone attending conference I'm in Dallas for

This was one of the best tours I’ve ever taken. Our guide was so knowledgeable and really made the events of 1963 come alive. I will do this again!

Vanessa is a very knowledgeable, very enthusiastic and super helpful guide. It was a pleasure to have her leading our tour.

This was a great value. We got to see all the important sites and learned a lot.
