Perfect tour for a short visit to the DFW area. William was a great tour guide, giving us a lot of history on the area as we rode from Dallas to Fort Worth and answering our questions about the area. Very easy way to get to see the highlights of Forth Worth while staying in Dallas.

Our trip to the Fort Worth Stockyards was an outstanding experience. William, our driver and guide, was exceptional—both highly entertaining and very knowledgeable. He was polite, courteous, and genuinely friendly, and he went above and beyond to assist our elderly mother when boarding the minibus, which we greatly appreciated. This tour is a fantastic choice for anyone wanting to experience the rich history of Fort Worth while enjoying an authentic taste of the Old West. We highly recommend it!

We took a tour to Fortworth to see the town square and the stockyards. Our tour guide , William, was excellent. He gave us the history of Fortworth as we drove from Dallas. It was quite interesting. He also took a detour so we could see AT&T stadium which was very cool. Fortworth was so much fun. We saw the cattle drive with the longhorns and we spent our time walking thru the shops. It was a great tour.

We took the half-day Fort Worth tour from Dallas with our guide, Dan. Not only was Dan extremely knowledgeable and able to answer our questions, he was also very personable and entertaining. We were disappointed to find that the cattle drive was cancelled upon arrival at the stockyards, but still enjoyed Fort Worth so much that we decided to stay beyond the length of the tour and Dan was happy to provide recommendations as to how we could get back on our own! Highly recommend touring with Dan!
Great tour!

Great mini tour! We liked the half day option. Two quick historical stops on the way and then two hours to explore at the stockyard. Just right for our group. Our guide, Dan, was very personable and knowledgeable.
