Mike, our tour guide showed us a great time on the tour! He was friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the history of Texas. None of which we would have known otherwise. The riverboat ride was awesome, beautiful area with shops, restaurant’s, and hotels along the scenic path! Mike was also a great driver and we felt very safe while riding with him. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour!
