Overview of your Houston tour:

Clients have an option of 1 or 2 tunnel tours. Tunnel Tour A will go into historic buildings while Tunnel Tour B will have lots of shops, stores, and restaurants to see. These tours are 2. 5 hours. However, they can be shortened to 1. 5 or 2. 0 hours or lengthened to 3. 0 or 3. 5 hours to include fewer or more buildings, tunnels, and flood gates and a lunch stop on the longer tours. This tour is only available on Monday through Friday during the day. The tunnels are open from about 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The tunnels are closed on weekends and holidays. The start time can be flexible.

Your Houston tour itinerary

The tour is divided into 3 segments: 1. A 30-minute introduction inside City Hall about the options, architectural features to observe, viewing a map of the tunnel system, a history of Houston's downtown area and the building in which we meet - City Hall, its architect, and features, and use of bathrooms. 2. A 30-minute walk outside from City Hall to the site where we enter the tunnels. I will be pointing out over 1 dozen buildings along the way, their architects, dates and periods of construction, architectural themes in downtown, and unique structures. This is also a good time for photo opportunities. 3. A 90-minute walk into the tunnels and buildings. We stop at least every 5 minutes to look at the sites and architectural features. A walking tour only moves as fast as the slowest person.
