Really enjoyed this tour around Waco! We gained a good understanding of the area, the Magnolia beginnings and saw some fun “Fixer Upper” properties. A must do tour if you’re in the area. Our tour guides Brad and Micah were extremely kind and caring individuals. Love the restoration theme of the tour as a whole. God bless!

Tour was the “best of the best” tour driving by Chip & Joanna’s renovated homes, Silo shops, zoo, views of the city & more! We stopped at a local coffee shop near Baylor’s campus for coffee. We learned of the many contributions the Gaines made toward making Waco what it is today as well as Waco’s early history. Van was comfortable & CJ, our tour guide was a hoot - fun, very knowledgeable with attention to detail as well as entertaining!
