Fun bit of history
Makes you look at the old buildings in the red light district a different way after learning their history
Awesome
The tour was really interesting and fun. Could not have been more pleased with our guide Noelle. She was super knowledgeable and fun. Til next time.
Great tour
It was a great tour and very educational! Much more than you can get from just reading up on the history of the area with the visuals of the historic landmarks. Our guide, Rob, had the right amount of energy and was a wealth of knowledge. The only drawback was the mosquitos. Somebody jacked Rob’s bug spray at the starting point or we would have been set! Do yourself a favor and BYOBS (bring your own bug spray).
Well done!!
This is mine and my S/O first time to Galveston!! The tour guide Rob was amazing. Lots of info that didn't know going into. Will most definitely when we come again will be booking another tour. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
FUN!
ROB was great to us. It ended up being a private tour which honestly was even better. Fair prices, was about 1.5 hours. ROB was very informative. We’ve done many of these tours through the US, and honestly Rob takes the cake as far as very detailed story telling. We did the Red Light District Tour.
