Q: What should I wear for this walking tour? Any specific recommendations?

A: Comfortable walking shoes are a must since you'll be strolling around Dealey Plaza and other historical sites. Dress in layers because Dallas weather can be unpredictable. A light jacket might be good for the evening if you're going in cooler months. Also, consider a hat or sunglasses for daytime!

Just did the JFK Food & Culture Tour - what an experience!

OMG, I just got back from the JFK Food & Culture Walking Tour in Dallas, and it was amazing! We got to try some incredible Texas comfort food, and the Indian food was out of this world. Plus, standing at the grassy knoll was surreal. The guide was super knowledgeable about JFK's history, which made it even more special. I totally recommend this for anyone who loves food and history! We spent about 3 hours, and it was worth every penny. Can’t wait to do it again!
