Was visiting from Philly to Houston for my first time. Ended up booking this tour and was one of the greatest parts of my trip. Luis was incredibly knowledgeable and took me on a personally guided tour. Went above and beyond in his explanations and answers to question. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

This was much more than a tunnel tour! It was a trip back in time learning about the history of the city, the buildings, and the people who built them. We were taken inside and outside of some of the most important lobbies in the city. Thank you for the best introduction to Houston and it’s history.
