AssassinationTour

The Ultimate JFK Experience

Our tour delves into one of the most intriguing mysteries of our time: the world-changing assassination of President Kennedy. We explore the facts and recount the incredible coincidences and timing that culminated in the event that shocked the world.

We offer two versions of the tour, a walking excursion (1 hour long, we walk about 5 blocks around Dealey Plaza and the West End), and a bus-operated version (two hours long). Both tours start at the JFK Memorial Plaza located at West End Historic District and include the presidential motorcade route, Dealey Plaza, the Texas School Depository and the Grassy Knoll.

The second half of the bus tour will take us to the Oak Cliff neighborhood where we will visit the Oswald Rooming House, J. D. Tippit's assassination site, the Neely House and the Texas Theater.


 

Book TheTour

We take you through the events of the day from a perspective not found on other tours. Why was JFK even in Dallas that day and why was that route for the motorcade chosen? We lay out the incredible coincidences and timing that culminated in a national tragedy that is as poignant today as it was in 1963.

We offer three options for this experience: self-guided, walking, and vehicle-operated tours. Each covers the same storyline. A Certified Professional Tour Guide leads the walking and vehicle-operated tours, while the self-guided tour is created and recorded by our senior Certified Professional Tour Guide. The vehicle-operated excursions include round-trip transportation from around Dallas; the vehicle (Sprinter, Transit, Minibus, Coach) is determined by the number of guests in your group.

THE BEST!!
My two daughters and I took the 2 hour JFK walking tour, it was incredible, full of historical facts and interesresting stories. Visiting the boarding house of Lee Harvey Oswald was amazing, like stepping back in time. The guide was excited and engaging and kept us entertained the whole time.
