The genesis of Houston began as The Allen brothers—Augustus and John Allen—explored Buffalo Bayou and Galveston Bay for potential land sites to establish a new town in 1837. Their investment of less than $10,000 seems incredulous as one now looks at one of the most beautiful cities in the United States. Houston is indeed a city of international renown and boasts some marvelous landmarks. Guests to Houston will want to give themselves plenty of time to take in the sights and sounds.

Q&A

Q: What should we wear for the Best of Houston Sightseeing Tour? Is it mostly outdoors?

A: You should definitely wear something comfortable! The tour does have some outdoor stops, so I’d suggest dressing for the weather. A light jacket or a hat can help if it’s sunny. Comfortable shoes are a must since you’ll be walking a bit. I went in March and it was a bit chilly, but the guide had us in an air-conditioned vehicle too, which was nice!

Q: Can I reschedule if my friend can't make it on the original date?

A: Yes, rescheduling is usually possible with Fun Texas Tours, but I recommend calling them directly to confirm the details. They’re pretty accommodating if you give them a heads up. Just make sure to check their policies on cancellations too, just in case!

Q: What age group is this tour suitable for? Can kids join?

A: This tour is great for all ages, including kids! The small-group setting means it’s more intimate and fun for families. Just keep in mind that younger kids might need some extra attention since there’s a bit of walking involved, but it’s totally doable. We took our 10- and 12-year-olds, and they loved it!
