Lots of fun. Really unique and cool restaurants/bars we went to. our hostess Debra was very knowledgeable and nice. the other 6 people in our group made it special as they were from all over the US and Canada and a lot of fun. I'm sure my wife and I will return on our own to the area.

Hi Ed, That definitely sounds like a great time! I'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Debra, she's the best. I know it can sometimes be intimidating when going into a tour with a group of strangers, but it sounds like they only enhanced the experience! I hope you made some fun new memories in Houston, and let us know when you feel like exploring another city! Cheers, Inah
Very pleasant atmosphere, with 9 of us on tour with the Debra, our guide. Everyone was very friendly and Debra gave us a great walking tour to several interesting restaurants and pointed out other interesting and historical points of interest. A variety of interesting and delicious food. A very delightful experience.
