Such a fun way to learn about the events of the island, including the gangs here after the hurricane 🌀 in 1900
Fun, fun, fun! Great personalized trip in a Model T replica sightseeing & mob history in Galveston. I would highly recommend as it was so worth the price.
Great combination of history and fun! Just the ride through town is awesome. We would do it again in a heartbeat!
Willie G, was fantastic (although you didn’t hear it from me). Not only did he have great info he was entertaining and got the whole gang into the act!

Willie D is an excellent tour guide, and has a vast amount of knowledge of the history of the mob and gangsters in Galveston. We were shocked to learn that the mob has been in Galveston for so many decades and all of their illegal activities. Willie D has a notebook to show us pictures of the gangsters and some of the buildings where they were. His enthusiasm and the way he told stories made us hang on to every word. We did not realize how wealthy Galveston was in the last century and how prominent Galveston was the major cities of the United States. This is the best tour we have ever been on, both Willie D himself and his content. !!!!!

David was very funny and extremely knowledgable. He had a history story about the people and places that made Galveston what it is today. He tied the past into now seamlessly! A wonderful way to spend 1/1/2 hours!
