Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for this tour? I wanna take my kids but not sure if it's appropriate.

A: There's no strict age limit for the JFK Historical Tour, but it's generally more suitable for older kids and teens who can understand the context. The material can be pretty heavy, given the subject matter. I took my 12-year-old, and he was fine, but I wish I'd prepped him a bit better about the topic! Just keep in mind it might not be for the very youngest.

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up? My friend wants to buy this for me but I might be busy.

A: Yes, you can reschedule! The provider allows for a reschedule as long as you give at least 24 hours notice. Just reach out to them directly, and they’ll help you find another time. It’s super flexible, which is great.

Q: What should I wear for this tour? Is it mostly walking or sitting?

A: I’d say comfortable shoes are a must! The tour involves some walking, especially around Dealey Plaza and the Sixth Floor Museum. Dress casually since you’ll be outside for part of it, but if it’s hot, definitely wear something breathable. Layers could be helpful too, considering how Texas weather can change!

Thinking of gifting the JFK Historical Tour - thoughts?

Hey everyone! I'm considering giving my dad the JFK Historical Tour for his birthday. He’s a huge history buff and loves everything about the 60s. I know it includes the Sixth Floor Museum and Dealey Plaza, which he’s always talked about visiting. Just curious if anyone's done this tour before and if you'd recommend it? Also, any tips for someone who might be a bit emotional about the subject?

Just did the JFK Tour and wow!

I just got back from the JFK Historical Tour and it was incredible! Our guide was super knowledgeable and shared so many details I never knew. The police headquarters and the memorial were really impactful. We even saw the route of the motorcade! I think it’s perfect for anyone interested in history or JFK. Highly recommend!
