This tour was one of the most impressive experiences I have ever had in Fort Worth. It was very easy to understand and fun to learn about the history of Texas. Hannah, our guide, was really amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable. They entertained and guided the participants throughout, making the whole tour very engaging and fulfilling. I was able to listen to many historical episodes and interesting back stories that I couldn't find out by reading a guidebook, which gave me a better understanding of Texas. Whether you're interested in Texas history and culture, or new to Fort Worth, this tour is a must. Hannah, thank you for a great time!

The tour was outstanding. My wife and I were the only people on the tour so it was very personalized. In the past, other tour groups have cancelled tours for lack of participation so it was refreshing to see a company make the extra effort to continue the tour and not cancel. Hannah was an outstanding guide, personable, friendly and knowledgeable. This was her first tour with just two people so as intimidating as that may have been, she handled it with grace and class and did a wonderful job telling us about the history of Fort Worth and the Stockyards.

Big Tom was a blast! We lucked out and it was just us with him. We learned the history of Fort Worth, saw some unique bars we hadn’t stumbled upon yet and learned a bit about Tom too! Thanks, Tom!

Walking through the Stockyards, there are so many places to see and explore. Having Big Tom as a guide to share the colourful and rich history of Texas and the Stockyards in particular was fabulous - he is so knowledgeable and presents the history in an engaging narrative, having a chat over a drink in a bar. What better way to learn history!

Get the lay of the land on the stockyard bars and learn some Texas history along the way. Be sure to request Big Tom as your tour guide. You will not be disappointed!

Big Tom and Hannah gave us a history and background of the stockyards here in Fort Worth. Great time visiting the honky tonks and listening to cowboy history while imbing in our favorite beverages.

This is the second time we have done this tour. We have done it when we have out of town guests. During this tour, my family from Germany was visiting. Big Tom did a great job talking about the history of FW and the stockyards as well as accommodating a couple of special requests we had. We will definitely do this tour again with any other out of town guests we might have. Big Tom was AWESOME!
