5.00This Houston double decker bus tour was really good! We now know a lot of Houston’s history and background of the architecture, underground tunnel system, city murals, etc. The narration was informative and easy to understand. Great price! Comfortable seating. The driver was friendly and a good navigator! Definitely recommend!

5.00Madden is crew or super knowledgeable and were accommodating willing to make changes to a reservations and was upfront transparent about everything. The experience itself was awesome we're able to get a good combination of both inner city driving highway driving and country driving as well. We got to watch the sunset during our drive and also experience a little bit of humidity that made some additional excitement for the drive. Highly recommend this experience.
