Liz and Ty did an amazing job! They were so friendly and knowledgeable. They kept us engaged and amused while also delivering informational tidbits. The tour took us all around the expected spots and some very unexpected hidden gems. Granted it was our first time in Waco but some of those spots had few locals. Overall we'd recommend this tour. *One note to make is that the silos is not one of the shopping stops.

Thank you for this review! We're so glad that you enjoyed your time with Liz and Ty. And yes, good distinction! We try to specialize in hidden gems of Waco as well as the popular tourism spots, which means that we only have time to drive by the silos and tell you recommendations and cool stories. That way, when you go by on your own time, you can enjoy the Magnolia Market all the more! Thank you so much for making us a part of your trip to Waco! Come visit us again soon!

It was not only a tour of Magnolia related sites but they take you to other sites, Cameron Park, by the zoo, and let you know about Waco history!!! Liz & Ty were an awesome guide team & made the tour fun & enjoyable. I highly recommend Waco Tours. Visit Magnolia Market & spend the afternoon seeing the rest of Waco.
