I thought the tour was well done and gave a good overall view of Waco! I’m from Waco and I learned new things so that was fun. My guest was visiting from Chicago and he really enjoyed it too! Thanks for a job well done!

Our Waco Sites and TV Highlights Tour was amazing from start to finish! Micah and Brad were the perfect guides — fun, knowledgeable, and full of great stories about the shows filmed here. They made the whole experience come alive, pointing out hidden gems and behind-the-scenes details we never would’ve known on our own. We loved exploring East Waco, Cameron Park, and all the beautiful neighborhoods that have been featured on TV. Micah and Brad made everyone feel welcome and kept the group laughing the whole time! We even celebrated one of our party’s sixteenth birthdays on the tour, and Micah and Brad went above and beyond to make it special. A special shoutout to the general manager CJ such a kind and friendly person who clearly cares about every guest’s experience. You can tell this team truly loves their community of Waco and what they do. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Waco — it’s the perfect mix of fun, and history.

What a great experience. We took a Sunday tour so we couldn't really stop by the Silo's or anything but Jeremiah and Brad were incredible. They helped bring to light so much you wouldn't have known about Waco. We saw many of the houses that Chip and Jo did on the show Fixer Upper. The Van was comfortable the stops were great, they were excellent Tour Guides. My wife was a bit skeptical at first, but are both so glad we went on this tour. Super easy and convenient at the pick up and drop off point.

CJ was our guide who did an amazing tour & explanation of the sites. We did the tour our first morning that helped set the tone for the next few days.

This tour was fantastic. CJ was fabulous. So nice and informative and a lot of fun. He knows so much info about Waco and the people. If we would have had the time we would have gone on his boat tour also. Highly recommend

I loved the Fixer Upper + City Tour in Waco! Micah and Riley were fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great stories about the homes, the show, and Waco’s history. The tour was well-paced, comfortable, and a perfect mix of Fixer Upper highlights and local charm. They even provided water and Dr Pepper as a fun nod to the Dr Pepper Museum, plus a booklet of coupons and free ice cream! Highly recommend this tour and these guides!
