What an unforgettable day in Waco! 🤍
We had the most amazing time on the Fixer Upper & City Tour—it truly exceeded all our expectations. From exploring iconic spots inspired by Fixer Upper to learning so much about the city’s history and charm, every moment was special.
But what made it even more meaningful was seeing how much my mom enjoyed it. 🥹 This experience was especially memorable for her—full of smiles, excitement, and beautiful moments we’ll always treasure.
If you’re visiting Waco, this tour is a must! It’s not just sightseeing… it’s an experience filled with heart, stories, and unforgettable memories. ✨

CJ & Micah were terrific tour guides and two of the most genuine people we have ever met! Their energy & enthusiasm for Waco was contagious! By the end of the tour we loved Waco as much as they do. Thank you for the most fabulous experience!!

Excellent tour, we learned so much more about Waco than we imagined. Highly recommend it’s much more than the Silos. We were there for the Magnolia Silos.

CJ and Don were the best! They were incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. They made the experience so wonderful!

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!

Tour was great. Liz and Cooper our guides were wonderful. We could have skipped the part around the zoo.
S_T, Apr 2025
AMAZING! Betty and Brad were incredible tour guides - friendly and funny. They both took the time to learn our names (14 of us - four pairs and a group of four) and referred to us personally throughout the tour.
This tour was the best way to learn about Waco and has to be one of the most enjoyable tours I have ever been on. Tour guides and drivers could really learn a thing or two from Betty and Brad - they truly were the best!
