This is a must-do tour in Downtown Houston as I came here on business and was shocked to find that there are more people underneath the city in the tunnel system rather than street-level. Vanessa was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and passionate about her city and told me all about the world's largest medical district and transformation period that is actively going on in Downtown. We saw the tallest buildings in Texas, and what I have to say was cool was that Vanessa seemed to know about everyone from building management, security personnel, the tailor shop owner that provides suits for the Rockets, and even Bank management inside the oldest bank in Houston. I will definitely recommend this tour to my co-workers if they come to Houston on business. I learned a lot, got some amazing photos, and now have a different perspective on Houston. Thank you Vanessa!

Vanessa did an excellent tour for us on 2/22/20. She was very personable, energetic and knowledgeable. We have done another tour with another company in the past and found Vanessa’s tour to be more inclusive of Houston’s underground tunnels and more interesting in her facts. Kudos to Vanessa and thank you for most enjoyable time. I would definitely use Astroville Tours in the future.
