Description

Si vous voulez voir tout ce que Galveston Island a à offrir, vous voudrez venir avec Joyride pour capturer toute l'histoire, le plaisir et l'excitation que l'une des plus anciennes villes du Texas a à offrir. Nos guides touristiques partagent leurs connaissances sur la façon dont la tempête de 1900 a dévasté la ville et changé sa trajectoire de développement. Ils connaissent des faits amusants qui ont permis à la ville de prospérer pendant les moments difficiles de la reconstruction et comment Clara Barton a également joué un rôle particulier dans la ville. Ils partagent des bribes d'intrigues, de mystères et d'activités "illégales" qui ont entouré la ville avant et après la grande tempête ! Si vous aimez les vieux bâtiments et les maisons anciennes, vous allez adorer le quartier The Strand ! Laissez vos guides vous montrer ce que Galveston offre aujourd'hui et ce qui la fait prospérer comme aucune autre ville du Texas.

Great Outing!

The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Galveston, was not hurried, and made stops at some landmarks to allow us get out of the tour vehicle and take photos. She was very engaging and didn't act as though she was in a hurry at all. Highly recommended!

Private Tour of Galveston

Marna is very nice and knowledgeable about Galveston and its history. Communicating with her before and after the tour was a breeze. She picked us up at our hotel and was so so willing to make our experience the best it could be. She is so easy to talk with. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour.

We learned about Galveston along the sea wall and more inland for the more historic lesson.

My friends and I scheduled a 2 hr golf cart tour of Galveston for Monday Labor Day. The tour was wonderful, joyride makes sure you get your full amount of time on the tour. They are generous with stops for picture taking or questions! This was our 3rd tour with them and will probably take more in the future.

A Wonderful Weekend Excursion

Marna was absolutely fabulous! Her knowledge, personable nature and efficiency were awesome. If you're interested in diving more in-depth into Galveston's history and having fun along the way, I would HIGHLY recommend this tour. So many wonderful and intriguing sites. The Grand Galvez Hotel was our absolute favorite... STUNNING. Thank you, Marna! This was worth every penny! ;-)

Expensive... but a great way to see the island

Guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Tour started 15 mins late and ended more than 30 mins late. While I appreciate the guide's knowledge and passion for the island, I'm not sure this tour is worth the steep asking price.

Thank you recognizing the knowledge of the guide for your tour. We work very diligently to represent the island and its special history. Guests pay for a private tour tailored to the interests as well as the historic side. By having a personal guide, we often get off the regular route to see specific points of interest. ( painted turtles, James Phillips wood carving, Cordray’s Ice Cream etc…) guests can get out at multiple points for pictures and also to run into LaKing’s for some peanut butter fudge. The tour is locally done by guides traveling from Houston to Galveston. Some guests are already in the island and the guide picks them up personally at their hotel. I hope you will consider coming to Houston again and try another one of our tours.
