Small-Group Sightseeing Tour of Houston

Overview

The genesis of Houston began as The Allen brothers—Augustus and John Allen—explored Buffalo Bayou and Galveston Bay for potential land sites to establish a new town in 1837. Their investment of less than $10,000 seems incredulous as one now looks at one of the most beautiful cities in the United States. Houston is indeed a city of international renown and boasts some marvelous landmarks.
Guests to Houston will want to give themselves plenty of time to take in the sights and sounds.

This tour is great because you get to stop and get out of the van to see things better and take pictures. Also, you could easily ask questions of the guide and he took us to see things we wouldn't have thought to go to. He made the tour very interesting and was very enthusiastic about the city of Houston and it's history. We really liked the small group aspect. Would highly recommend this tour!!!
