Birthday celebration tour - Had a great tour! The tour began with the hour and half tour of Houston and then with the tour of Galveston. The staff was great! The staff was friendly, helpful, and very friendly. The drivers for both Houston and Galveston were great drivers. Would highly recommend! Also there is parking near the office that made it easy to get to.

Loved this day trip, I would visit again. - I loved this tour and such a great way to see Galveston, especially as an out of town tourist that doesn’t drive here. I would recommend as it’s such great value for money.

Great tour, you’ll have fun - The bus trip around Houston was great fun and very informative. Ben was a great guide and everyone had a great time. Then off to Galveston, commentary and good times the whole way. Galveston is an interesting place and Ben kept up with the information and anecdotes. We then had 2 hours and walked around. That could have been longer, but we made the most of it. Though is was quite hot so a cold beverage was required. Not the cheapest thing we’ll do, but fun.

Notice of Cancellation Would Have Been Nice - We booked the Houston Tour and Galveston combo. When we arrived, we were informed the Galveston portion was canceled because too few were signed up. I understand needing a minimum number to make a tour go, but the cutoff should have been a few days before, so we had ample notice to make alternate plans. Being informed as the tour starts is totally unacceptable. We did go on the Houston Tour portion and it was good.
