Our guide was very knowledgeable and full of energy. Although we have visited a couple of the homes on past tours, we learned a lot about Galveston’s history as well as architectural details and styles, which gave us a different perspective of the homes. It was at a nice pace and didn’t feel rushed. Plan on doing it again when the tour expands and to see the progress on some of the restoration projects visited. Very highly recommended!

Noel (I hope I remember her name correctly) was great. I loved the history she provided and enjoyed hearing about the different architectural types. I really am not familiar with these and she was very helpful explaining the differences and influences of each type. The pace was great, the walk enjoyable, and very comfortable. I highly recommend Noel and this particular tour.

Educational fun walking tour of old Galveston neighborhood highlighting historic architecture as well as Galveston history. Our group has been coming to the island for years and all agreed this tour gave us new perspectives and left us wanting to learn more. Would definitely try other tours by this company

We just completed the architecture tour, and Noelle was our guide. She did an excellent job explaining the different architectural styles and the history behind each home we passed or entered. The tour was both interesting and enlightening, and we learned so many things we had never heard before. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and Noelle did a fantastic job.
