It has rained. It does d not get any communication about them cancelling We waited at the pickup and no one showed up
Beautiful old Victorian homes. Liz was great and very knowledgeable. I would recommend going during daylight, many of the homes are on dark streets.
What a wonderful time we had. Liz was awesome and so knowledgeable about the history of Galveston. Her relationship with the horse was great and such a smooth and enjoyable evening. Will certainly take the ride again.
Very nice ride lots of amazing information on the building will definitely be doing it again our driver was amazing as was her co rider moonshine and her beautiful horse O'malley thanks again
What a great experience, riding in a carriage going through old neighborhoods with the beautiful old homes made you feel part of the era.
The ride was very pleasant and the operator was very nice and provided informative history about the Galveston area.
Our ride was amazing!! Our driver Liz was so much fun!! She is knowledgeable and has the greatest personality. Dee is the most amazing animal!! Thank you Liz ( and Dee) for making our tour one we won’t forget!!!!
The staff was amazing down to earth and informative. The pupper dog was a bonus and they gave us a few great spots to visit. If I could give them a 100 out of 100 I surely would well worth the little amount they charge!!
Great historical tour! The guide gives facts about how Galveston was founded, the history of the floods, and also a local real estate tour. It's a good way to see more than The Strand. The tour is around the downtown area. If you want to see the beach, you'll have to do that on your own. The tour cannot begin before 5:00 in the summer months due to city regulations for the horses in the heat. The guide also shared that the horses work about one tour a week and spend the rest of the time 15 minutes away in a pasture.
Liz was phenomenal. She was an excellent guide, and we enjoyed every minute of our trip. I'm looking forward to the tour that's coming up in Dallas.
