Great tour. Informative and fun. It was amazing seeing all the artwork in various places in the city. Safe drivers and a revealing view of some of the best city murals.

Houston City Tours 2026!
The tour I needed after 30 years in HTOWN. I thought I knew my city but this topped it off. I didn’t even know we had an underground tunnel. We had to explore it after the tour and yes indeed! It exits & it’s amazing! The tour is about 80 minutes and it’s worth every minute. Would do this again!!

Houston, Texas Bus Tour
Make sure to bring a hat, sunglasses and wear sunscreen for those with sensitive skin. If you sit on the second level, you are completely exposed to the sun and tree branches. Otherwise, great tour, kind staff, and knowledgeable recorded narration on sites.

Sightseeing in the city
Tour was as advertised. Worth it. Got a lot of great shots, recommendations for more things to do in the city, and some Houston history.
