This was our second time taking the tour. Our guides, Ben and Will, were excellent! We enjoyed their quick wit and laughed a lot all through the tour. We particularly liked getting refreshed on the history of Waco and how diverse Waco's past was. Between the Chisolm Trail, the Artesian wells, the invention of Dr. Pepper and how the drink got its name, and of course all of the neat creations from Chip and Joanne. My wife turned 70 on March 17 so we were in Ft. Worth visiting our two children who live there. Our oldest daughter and her family also were with us. This was their first experience to Waco. Our band of 9 were "all in" during the entire tour.
