Vanessa was our tour guide. She was so sweet. Her knowledge of the buildings and architecture kept us intrigued as we navigated through the tunnels. We are so glad we took this tour because we would have missed out on the history of key downtown towers. Thank you

I’d like to highly recommend this walking tour. Luis was very friendly, professional and informative. I learned a great deal about the architecture of the buildings, history of the city and state, and the growth of business and development downtown. Without this tour, I would have never known about the extensive tunnel system, let alone venture down there by myself. I am so glad I found this tour! Thanks again Luis for the personalized recommendations at the end of the tour.

I visited Houston with my parents for a couple of days, we did not really know what to do. So we saw this tour, and thought why not? We actually learned so much about the city and we went to places that we normally would not have gone to! So a really nice tour!
