Our tour guide was so personable and bubbly! She texted us earlier in the day with information, greeted us, was so friendly, would answer any questions we asked, was full of information, etc! She used our time in the tour very wisely and even showed us things I didn’t imagine we would see. She wanted this to be a great experience for everyone. When it started to rain at the end of the tour, she asked us all where we needed to go and directed everyone to those locations and even walked one group all the way back to the tour starting point to ensure they got back. She asked where else people were going and offered recommendations and suggestions for those places if people wanted them and even gave extra recommendations about the area to us all! She was a wealth of knowledge and one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had! I highly recommend this tour and our tour guide, Vanessa!

Interesting, fun, and informative tour. I've been in Houston for 30+ years and had no idea about most of this Houston architectural history, or the extent of the downtown tunnel system. Vanessa was a great tour guide for our group - very friendly and engaging. Highly recommended way to spend a couple of hours downtown.
