Terrific driver and perfect pace and time for a tour. Very well done and we would recommend. Not hectic and told the story of the day / aftermath in enough detail that you could take in the sight and sound.

We really enjoyed it. The narration was excellent. It was so interesting tracing Oswald’s steps after he left the School Book Depository.

We booked out over a month in advance and we were very happy with the update notifications leading up to our tour. Lisa was quite enjoyable as a tour guide. The narration was very good, although I did have some problems hearing the actual news clips/ police calls, they were still very informative. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed it thoroughly, highly recommend.
