Hidden gem in Houston - If you have 2.5 hours in Houston on a weekday, take this tour!!! This was truly an awesome find and we are so glad we had the opportunity to take the tour. Diana was our guide and she was outstanding! We learned so much about Houston history. Highly recommend!!! Note - this is a walking tour so you need to be able to walk a few blocks; there are a few opportunities to sit down and minimal stairs.

Hidden Gem - We had some time in Houston and found this activity and we are so glad we did! The tunnel system in Houston is a hidden gem. Diana was an AMAZING guide! She was able to tailor her presentation to the audience so we learned SO much and had a great time in the process. NOTE- This is a walking tour so you need to be able to walk several blocks. There are a few opportunities to sit down and minimal stairs. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour!!!

Tunnel tour - It was a interesting and very informative tour. The tunnels are amazing. What is even more interesting is the people that live in Houston haven't heard of these tunnels and the tunnels have been around since 1960.
