Just took classic tour today with ā€œGooseā€ and Denise. They were a blast! Very knowledgeable and really fun. We had just moved here a few weeks ago and was fun to see sites we havenā€™t been to yet. Weā€™ll be booking river tour soon.

My wife and I stayed in Fort Worth for our honeymoon and decided to drive to Waco for an afternoon mainly because of her liking of Fixer/Upper. I decided to book the Classic Tour as a surprise for her and it exceeded our expectations. Denise and Dano were our guides and it was a special part of our trip. Not only did we see many Fixer/Upper homes and their stories, we were educated with so much Waco history as well current features and endeavors. They offered many special/personal touches throughout the tour, and it was evident they care deeply about Waco and are passionate about their jobs. It was entertaining, educational, and just plain fun. I have been on a few of these types of tours and this was by far the best. My wife and I would highly recommend the Classic Tour for anyone visiting Waco or the surrounding area.
