Lou and Vannessa were great hosts . Great orientation of Houston and what’s its people are all about. I liked the history but enjoyed being able to get off and take photos at cool spots. The statues and graffiti walls weren’t something I really associate with Texas, so I believe you will not just learn some thing cool but will also feel like you get to know about diff parts of Houston. Would 100 percent do another tour with them

My co-workers and I had wanted to do the tunnel tour because we heard it was the best tour in Houston but there apparently was no availability so we ended up doing this Driving tour in a Mercedes van… A pleasant surprise of history, architecture, geography, and we got to see 5-6 different parts of the city as opposed to just Downtown or a single portion of Houston. Given how big Houston is in terms of area, the tour is efficient and covers a lot. My favorite parts personally were the mansions in the Bayou Oaks and the stop to see the Houston skyline from the museum district. My co-workers enjoyed the medical district and Alomodome. Guide Vanessa and driver Luis were both very knowledgeable of Houston and Texas as a whole, highly recommend this activity if you want to get to know the city with experts! Hopefully I can do the tunnel tour with them next time I’m in town crossing fingers hah

Great way to see different parts of Houston and not have to worry about hot temperatures and rain! Vanessa our guide was beyond knowledgeable and gave us great suggestions for restaurants and things to do. The tour itself is spectacular, you will feel much more comfortable roaming the city and get a superb feel for how the city operates and it’s core history/values. The van was extremely clean and comfortable but it only fits 10 folks, so we had to do it on a third day here just because they are limited with capacity. I would recommend to book this tour in advance of your visit or early off in your trip to ensure you get a spot
