Excellent tour. Dave was very knowledgeable and sincerely enthusiastic about the history of Fredericksburg and the Germans in Texas. His training and experience as a national parks ranger shows. We (who live nearby) enjoyed learning the area's history and our friends from Colorado enjoyed learning about a slice of American history that was unknown to them.

The driver was very safe. He was also very knowledgeable of the history and current events of Fredericksburg and the surrounding area. He made history interesting as well as relevant to what is happening today. Along the way, he would pause to ask if anyone had questions.

This tour is a must. Learned so much about the history of Fredrickburg in a short time. The shopping and food was great, but the trolly ride tided it all together. Truly greatful for the tour guide and the families known and unknown that have sacrificed, lost and fought for a better way of life. Will visit again.

Excellent tour with great tour guide who provided tons of history. Visit to church and Greg sharing his family history was very moving.

A1 experience! David went above and beyond being a driver and narrator. His deep sense of appreciation for history, family and community is clearly evident in his delivery. There were only 8 of us on the tour and, for the entire two hours, he made it a point to answer all of our questions with enthusiasm and kept us engaged. We even got to get off the bus and tour a small church where he played Amazing Grace on the organ for us! We also got to stretch our legs and tour the inside of St Mary’s Catholic Church. David’s experience as a Ranger with the National Park Service shone through and made this fellow “parky” proud. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who feels it is important to connect to our past and who wants to be immersed in the heart and soul of the amazing town of Fredericksburg, Texas!
