A Must-Do when in Dallas!

jazmine_j, Mar 2026

Jim Anderson was a great tour guide! As an urban planner for the city of Dallas, he’s very knowledgeable on the city’s architecture, history, foodie spots and best activities. The food tour was creative and delicious! The whisky shot at Wild Bulls Western Store was a fun add! I would definately recommend this tour when in Dallas.

Wonderful time!

Jim Anderson was an excellent tour...

Jim Anderson was an excellent tour guide on our West Village Food Tour Hop on Aug 6th, 2017! He was very knowledgeable and gave interesting facts about the Dallas area. You would have thought he was a Dallas native! I highly recommend this tour! The food was good and a great benefit is that my husband found some Mediterranean food he likes.
