Thank you so much for the feedback! It was certainly a pleasure having y'all on tour with us Judith. It was really fun showing you around the largest downtown tunnel system in the U.S. and sharing the history/stories of the downtown buildings. If y'all ever do return to Houston, don't hesitate to reach out to us for any recommendations/suggestions. Safe travels back home!

What a great tour. Vanessa was super friendly and knowledgeable. The time just seemed to fly. Highly recommended to learn about the tunnel system connecting the downtown core.

Thank you so much for the feedback Peter! Although y'all have something similar with the Underground City in Montreal, I hope getting an up-close perspective of the largest downtown tunnel system in the U.S. and the history/stories of the downtown buildings was also really cool as we certainly had a blast. If y'all ever do return to Houston or Texas, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for any recommendations/suggestions. Safe travels back to Canada!
