Amid the Skyscrapers of Downtown Dallas City Tour

Does downtown intimidate you? When you drive through, are you so busy watching the traffic lights, pedestrians, and one-way street signs that you don't have time to look up at the buildings? Climb aboard and be guided as you learn about the heart of the city. Our first stop: Dealey Plaza, where the city began. We'll go inside the Old Red Courthouse. A few blocks away, we'll go inside the Texas Cable News building and the Belo building to view historic murals depicting the rich heritage of Texas. After lunch, and a brief walk amid the skyscrapers we'll explore Pioneer Cemetery, where many of the founders of Dallas are buried, and get an up-close view of the bronze cattle crossing the stream in Pioneer Plaza. Along the way we'll drive by the Farmers Market, Old City Park, the remains of "Theater Row," and we'll explore the Arts District, and the State-Thomas neighborhood. Historian and author Dr. Michael V. Hazel will be the tour guide.

The tour departs from and returns to the Hall of State in Fair Park.
