Itinerary

  • John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza

    Experience the JFK tragedy firsthand. This fascinating tour begins with a visit to the aesthetically simple, Kennedy Memorial; a thoughtful piece of art; the space is intended for reflection and remembrance.

    15 minutes

  • Dealey Plaza National Historic Landmark District

    Visit Dealey Plaza; a public park in downtown Dallas and the site of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. As you walk through Dealey Plaza with your Tour Guide, learn about the Presidential motorcade route and stop at the infamous Grassy Knoll, where bystanders heard gunshots. Learn about the Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza (which commemorates the life and legacy of JFK); now located within the building formerly known as the Texas School Book Depository. See the “corner window” used by the alleged assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. Hear details of key evidence, the Warren Commission Report, the role of the Secret Service Agents, eyewitness accounts, the Zapruder film and discuss the conspiracy theories. Depart Dealey Plaza and trace Kennedy’s presidential limousine's route to Parkland Hospital; where questionable decisions were made in the midst of the crisis. Hear accounts from the ER doctors, the tragic moments Jackie Kennedy experienced and the welfare of severely injured Governor Connally. In route, you will stop at the Dallas Trade Mart, where JFK was schedule to be the guest of honor and deliver a speech at a luncheon hosted by Dallas dignitaries.

    45 minutes

  • Turtle Creek Park (Pass By)

    Drive the route of the presidential motorcade as it left Dallas' Love Field Airport heading towards downtown. Learn about Kennedy's plans for his trip to Texas.

  • Main Street Garden

    Stop by Main Street Gardens to see the Old Municipal Building. In 1963, this was the home of the Dallas Police Headquarters and the Dallas city jail where Lee Harvey Oswald was held over the weekend. Your guide will cover the circumstances that lead to the shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald by nightclub owner, Jack Ruby.

    20 minutes

  • The Texas Theatre

    Trace Lee Harvey Oswald's footsteps as he fled the Texas School Book Depository to the Dallas neighborhood of Oak Cliff. Stop by Oswald's boarding house that still stands today. Visit the corner of 10th and Patton St.; the site where Oswald fatally shot Dallas Police Officer J. D. Tippit. Follow the expected route Oswald took as he fled the scene, to the famous Texas Theatre, where he was captured and arrested after a struggle with the Dallas Police.

    1 hour

  • Dallas City Hall

    Located adjacent to the Dallas City Hall is the Dallas Police Memorial; a tribute to all Dallas Police Officers slain in the line of duty. Look for the fallen J. D. Tippit's name on the Memorial.

Happy 40th in Dallas

Published on Nov, 2024

This was our first trip to the area. We were very happy with the process. I was skeptical about booking online, so I called and got to speak to Rebecca who was very helpful and informative. Great communication regarding tour day. Erin was our tour guide and was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Even suggested local bbq for dinner that was great. We will definitely use them again.

A must-see/do tour!

Published on May, 2023

This was an excellent tour by Rebecca, who was so thorough and knowledgeable, not to mention gracious with her time. I would highly recommend this tour (or one of the longer ones) to anyone who wants an objective narrative about the known facts to compare to the myriad of theories surrounding JFK's assassination. Seeing the actual sites where key events unfolded, hearing about the people involved (or allegedly so), and learning the history was a real eye-opening experience. While the story is a indeed a heavy-hearted one, we had a great time learning about it. With greater knowledge, we can continue to reflect, ponder, and weigh in on one of the most controversial events in American history. Thanks Rebecca. Outstanding!

Excellent tour

Published on Apr, 2023

Excellent tour. Certainly gave us food for thought on lots of aspects of history and conspiracy theories

JFK historical tour of Dallas

Published on Feb, 2023

Brilliant tour with Rebecca, very knowledgeable about the events that happened in Dallas, happy to answer lots of questions about the theory’s that have existed for almost 60 years. Very generous with her time (we ran slightly over). Rebecca’s knowledge also comes from having met people that were there that day, which gave a wonderful insight to the confusion and pandemonium that ensued after the shooting

Highly recommend!

Published on Dec, 2022

Absolutely amazing!! From my first interaction with Rebecca to our 5 hour tour with Erin, every interaction with them was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. When we met Erin the morning of our tour, she was dressed professional, her clean Lexus SUV was comfortable to ride in, she was patient with our children, she was knowledgeable and had great skills with explaining things to us. Highly recommend!!!
