Houston's only tip-based walking tour!
Dive into the history, architecture, and uniquely Texan ambience of the fourth biggest city in the United States: a modern-day melting pot of cultures with an old fashioned past that is all its own.
From the oldest building in Houston to the tallest skyscraper in the city, we'll go on a journey through Houston's history via its architecture. You'll learn the history of Texas and its War of Independence from Mexico and learn about our local heroes from Sam Houston to Hakeem Olajuwon.
Wander through the city's Historic District and see some masterworks of Art Deco architecture of the early 20th century and discuss street art and murals of today.
We'll sneak a ride on Houston's modern tramline (for free!) and travel between the city's Historic District and its ultra-modern Skyline District.
On this two and a half hour tour, you'll also have time for a coffee or beer at a cozy bar in the city's Theater District and get time to chat with your fellow travelers. We'll end the tour at a spacious park in the middle of the city next to a great cafe where you can grab a bite to eat or go on to explore more of the city!
