“Tolle Tour, hätte nie gedacht, dass es so etwas tolles unter den Wolkenkratzern von Houston gibt. Guide hat alles mit viel Engagement in einem wirklich gut zu verstehendem „amerikanischen“ Englisch erklärt. Ein tolles Erlebnis zu einem fairen Preis. Sehr empfehlenswert!”

Diana was a wealth of information. I loved learning about all the history of downtown Houston. I was really thankful she had a voice that one could hear no matter where you are in the group.
on s'attendait à visiter des sous terrains un peu historiques. Il ne s'agit que de voir des foods courts, rien d'intéressant. heureusement que la visite se termine par la visite de la Chase Bank qui vaut le détour
Vanessa was an amazing guide! The tour was very informative.
