Luis was a very knowledgeable guide. Even though I have lived in Houston for 20 years, he taught us so much about the history and architecture of this beautiful city.

Booked this tour on the recommendation of one my co-working flight attendants who had done their Food tour before the pandemic. The tunnels tour was well worth the time and money. Some amazing chances for photos alongside Houston's most notable sites. The tour guide Dan was a book of knowledge on the city and it's evolving culture. He also encouraged us to ask questions/comments!! (much different than any other tour I've been on). The recommendations were a great bonus since my co-workers had 2 days to spare in the city. Look forward to doing their Food tour which was unavailable the next time we are in Houston for a layover!

Super cool! As Houstonians, we were surprised how much we learned about this unknown part of downtown, just minutes away from our home. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, energetic, and helped make our experience memorable. A definite must-do on a weekday if you have the day off!
