Last year's Galentine's celebration was a truly delightful departure from the ordinary. We spent…read morethe evening touring downtown Houston, indulging in an array of light appetizers and exploring a diverse selection of teas, a highlight being the exquisite rose cherry blend. Admittedly, tea tasting wasn't something I would have sought out on my own, but the experience was a revelation; it allowed me to discover a newfound appreciation for the complexity of different flavors. Beyond the tasting, there was something special about the atmosphere, dressing up, singing along to the music, and soaking in the local history of the city. It was the perfect blend of sophisticated and spirited fun. I cannot recommend this experience enough for a Galentine's outing or any meaningful gathering with friends.

DO NOT BOOK THIS BUS!!!! It is a scam with false…read moreadvertising. I usually do not give bad reviews because I believe every business has a chance for improvement but I was really hoping all the bad reviews I saw after I and my sisters booked this bus tour was untrue. Unfortunately there was no lies told as we also had our own fair share of experience which completely ruined my birthday experience, left a sour taste in my mouth and had me screaming NEVER AGAIN!!!!This experience caused me extreme sadness especially with our waitress Nathalie being overly rude. I can't believe they hire someone like that to work in their organization. Anyways it is a poorly managed company because, First of all we booked the 2:30 Luxe package for March 15 2026. This was part of my birthday weekend celebration. Please do not waste your time. Even if you insist on going don't waste your money on the Luxe package. It is a marketing scam. We got a text that morning that the take off time was rescheduled to 3pm. Anyways we arrived on time. And note that there is nothing like priority boarding. Everyone just gets in. Secondly the customized tumblers were not available neither were there take out plates as promised. There were only cheap styrofoam cups. When we asked our server Nathalie about the tumbler she was Extremely Rude to us. First she tried to offer us mocktails as compensation and we told her the mocktails are already included in the Luxe package. That is when she then proceeded to raise her voice at us. She basically told us that "she does not own the business, and we should not argue with her (which we did not at all), and we should decide if we want tea or not, answer her yes or no and she does not have time for this". We could not believe our ears we just stared at her. Of course we could not accept anything from her after that, who would? However the second waitress Imani was very professionally and polite. Even with the air conditioning in the bus not working right she was sweating and still making sure everybody was doing ok. She apologized for her colleagues behavior. Now, there was suppose to be some entertainment and a tour experience with narration. Yeah, there was nothing like that. No music, No singing. This was just a hot uncomfortable bus ride filled with rude staff, disappointment and false advertising. I will not recommend even to my enemy. Please note that there are other fun things to do in houston with $214.34. Plus we paid $30 for parking per car. Also we were suppose to get a 3 tier sandwich tray we only got 2. This was a total disaster. I need my refund from this terrible experience. Please read all the reviews before deciding. The good reviews are from a long time ago or those people are paid to write good reviews. Because every review from 2026 is as is. They need to do better or shut down this business.

This was my first time using your service, and my wife and I were genuinely excited about the convenience of not having to drive to the casino. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by significant issues with the bus's air conditioning. Nearly an hour into the trip, the driver informed us that he had contacted his supervisor about the malfunctioning air conditioning. We were told that we could turn back, but no replacement bus would be provided. Given how far we had already traveled, no one felt it made sense to return, so the trip continued in extremely uncomfortable conditions. After spending five hours in the casino, we fully expected that the air conditioning issue would have been addressed before our return. Instead, we were told that the system was known to be completely nonfunctional. This was especially concerning because the bus was filled with senior citizens, including my wife and me.

As a first time visitor, it was the…read moreperfect way to get oriented and really learn about the city instead of just attending my conference. Ben, our guide, was fantastic -- a true local who clearly loves his hometown. His narration on Houston's architecture, history, and hidden details made the skyline come alive. You could feel the hometown pride in every story he shared. It wasn't just facts -- it was personality, context, and connection. Huge shoutout to Yolanda as well for keeping us safe while navigating all over the city. Houston traffic is no joke, and she handled it like a pro. There are only two hop-off stops -- the Aquarium and Sam Houston Park -- so if you're looking for a fully flexible hop-on-hop-off experience, this isn't that. But honestly, it's a great overview tour and a really efficient way to see and understand Houston in a short amount of time. If you want a solid introduction to the city with knowledgeable locals leading the way, this is a great choice! Support this family owned business.

I researched tour companies in advance of our trip, and I chose "Discover Houston Tours." Phil planned an itinerary and kept in touch with me before our arrival at HOU-Hobby. He communicated with me by phone, text, and email which assured me that I had selected the best tour guide. Our main purpose was to use our "free day" to tour Johnson Space Center. Phil picked us up at the airport and took us on the greatest tour of the Space Center. He guided us to every exhibit, so that no time was wasted. If I had been "on my own," I would never have known how grand the Space Center was. After the Space Center tour, Phil suggested that he had time for a tour of Houston. Phil's knowledge of Houston is unsurpassed. He took us to all the amazing places in Houston, including famous parks, River Oaks, historic sites, landmarks, and an opportunity to admire the skyline and the architectural beauty of buildings and skyscrapers. I am grateful for Phil Stewart's wonderful tour of Houston. Our visit to Houston was perfect!
