Very worthwhile!

John was very informative. This tour is better than others because you are able to follow Oswald’s path in between the shooting and being caught at the theater, including going inside his rooming house, which has been untouched since. We were given plenty of time to explore the museum at the end of the tour. Our group ranged from ages 25-61 and we all enjoyed it.

One of the best tours we’ve ever been on and we’ve been on a lot!

Our tour guide, Dan, was absolutely phenomenal. His knowledge and enthusiasm were top notch. The amount we learned for a subject we thought we had a pretty solid understanding of was surprising. Absolutely outstanding and highly recommend!

Great tour!

Dan was fabulous. Knowledgeable and friendly, he clearly knows what he’s talking about. The bus driver was thoughtful as well. You see all the highlights, follow Oswald’s steps that fateful day and get a taste of what life was like back in the ‘60’s. Would ook again!

Very informative and interesting

Always wanted to take the JFK tour and explore the events of his assasination. Communication on meeting spot was excellent for. Our guide, John. The information he provided makes you want to explore more, so much information was conveyed to us in a very easy way to understand. Only comment would be that a better speaking instrument should be used. Difficult at times to hear with road and bus noise. Nevertheless well worth taking.
