What To Expect

John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza

The John F. Kennedy Memorial was the first memorial by famed American architect and Kennedy family friend Philip Johnson, and was approved by Jacqueline Kennedy. Johnson called it "a place of quiet refuge, an enclosed place of thought and contemplation separated from the city around, but near the sky and earth." Dallas raised $200,000 for the memorial by August 1964, entirely from 50,000 individual donations contributed by private citizens.

Dealey Plaza National Historic Landmark District

Called the "birthplace of Dallas". It was the location of the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, on November 22, 1963. The Dealey Plaza Historic District was named a National Historic Landmark in 1993 to preserve Dealey Plaza, street rights-of-way, buildings and structures by the plaza visible from the assassination site, that have been identified as witness locations or as possible locations for assassins.

Grassy Knoll

The grassy knoll is a small, sloping hill inside the Dealey Plaza and adjacent by the former Texas School Book Depository. It became well known following the assassination of John F. Kennedy. The knoll was above Kennedy and to his right (west and north) during the assassination on November 22, 1963.

The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza

If you purchase the option that includes the entrance to the JFK Museum at Dealey Plaza, we will leave you at the museum's entrance at the end of the tour. You can skip the line and go directly to the visitors’ desk to collect your headsets equipment for a self-guided tour, the museum visit generally takes 40-60 minutes.

My husband and I came on a spontaneous trip from Nebraska to Dallas. We were looking for something to do and found this walking tour. Little did I know, that Kevin would blow our minds!!! We were hanging on his every word. Then we met Pat who also blew our minds. Kevin was extremely educated, friendly, and entertaining. People of all ages would really enjoy this tour. Went the beginning of November in the morning. My husband and I were warm the entire time. You even end up in the art district and have a free ride back to downtown. 12/10 recommended a tour with kevin!

We took the walking tour on 6/18 and had the tour to ourselves!! Kevin was absolutely wonderful and a ton of fun! Learned so much more than I ever knew and we were taken to places off the beaten path like the rooming house and the theater where Oswald was finally arrested. I recommend to anyone visiting Dallas! Thanks Kevin!! Jennifer and Ramon
