Want some food in Houston? Learn some city history? Get to the tunnels!

This was a great tour! We weren't sure what to expect but our guide was great! As she took our small group around she explained the tunnel system, it's history, how it is playing a role in Houston's growth as a city and it was fun! I would have never know any of it existed or how big it turned out to be! Lots of food options to go back to! A great way to spend a few hours in the afternoon and get away from the Houston heat!

Terrific Tour and Guide

Highly recommend! Tour guide Vanessa was cheerful, knowledgeable and interesting! I wish there was a Part 2 of this tour! We only had three people in our group. A friend who lives in Houston joined me, and even he learned a lot and really enjoyed it!

Great tour!

Diana is a great guide! The tour was so interesting and entertaining. I am a native Texan and have lived in Houston for years and I learned so much! It is equally an architectural tour and tunnel tour. Highly recommend!
