Great tour of West Town!
Henry was a knowledgeable guide. He was great with communication before the day of the tour. He was very accommodating for our group’s needs. Highly recommend any of his tours!

Henry was a GREAT tour guide!!
Henry did a great job and was very informative! I especially enjoyed the history involving the indoor pool and synchronized lifting of the city on jacks without disturbing the shopping! He answered all our questions and even offered to email us a list of his favorite restaurants! 5 STARS! Thanks Henry!
