"The Great Storm Talk and Tour" was simply fantastic. I learned so much, and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about Galveston's history, and in particular The Great Storm of 1900. What made the Tour particularly special was to hear the history told along with vivid stories of the men, women, and children involved, and then to see the actual sites and buildings that were effected by these events. It was all done really well.

Great discussion about the hurricanes. Mostly focused on the storm of 1900 but also some info on more recent storms. My kids loved the tour.

This tour begins with you being guided through artifacts in the Galveston County Museum and includes seeing footage by Thomas Edison’s moving picture machine (the aftermath of the storm in Galveston was actually the first newsreel!) and then being guided around downtown buildings and being told their stories! Chilling aspects are seeing coroner notes on the discovered dead and artifacts on display that could identify them to loved ones. And maybe still could? Who knows! Take this tour! The magnitude of this horrendous event will come alive for you!
