Hi Ladies, It was a pleasure having all of y'all on tour. You were all very lovely and a fun bunch of educational professionals, and I hope this tour was a cool eye-opening experience even though y'all are from the Houston area. I'm happy we were able to make this a special birthday, and we look forward to seeing y'all again in Downtown Houston soon! Perhaps for the Food Tour :)

It was my first time visiting Houston so i did the underground tunnel tour as well as the food tour. Vanessa and Luis are very informative and know their facts about the city and its history very well. It's amazing that Houston has over 7 miles of tunnels running underneath the city! Thank you so much to Vanessa and Luis for their hospitality, I can't wait to visit again in the future!

We arrived to TX from Israel and wanted to see as much as we can. The underground tour was very interesting and full of great information about Houston's history, giving us the opportunity to see the old merging with the new. Venesa, our guide was lovely and full of information. A very good day. We recommend!!!
