A group of us were not able to go on this tour at the very last minute due to an unexpected health issue. There are not enough words to describe the kindness and grace we were given by this company. I am so grateful for the understanding. Thank you and if we ever make our way to Galveston again we will certainly re book with you.

This was a very interesting tour. He not only pointed out the points of interest but also had photos to show and memorabilia. He had glasses and hats for us to wear if we wanted to.
