On this four-hour walking tour of Dallas highlights, you’ll hear how the city grew from a trading post on the Trinity River in 1841 to the busy metropolis it is today.
We’ll start at Dealey Plaza and explore the events that led to the JFK assassination. Next, we head to the Dallas Arts District with a trip on the historic McKinney Avenue Trolley along the way.

As we stroll through Klyde Warren Park, we’ll admire the stunning Dallas skyline. And don’t forget our visit to the “Eye,” a three-story eyeball, and Thanks-Giving Square, with its all-faiths spiral chapel.
