Looking for what to do and where to go?
We’ll show you all the highlights from “Fixer Upper,” take you downtown and share about our city’s rich history. We’ll also show you the secrets of Cameron Park, invite you into the story of East Waco, explore gorgeous neighborhoods you’ve seen on TV and much more. In addition, we will treat you to a local coffee or ice cream!
So, what do we mean by the “restoration story” of Waco?
Waco is a city that has been transformed over the past several decades. This restoration includes so much more than the homes that have been restored on TV, because our entire community as a whole has also been revitalized. On our tour, we’ll share about the trials and struggles Waco has endured, as well as how it became what it is today. It’s a beautiful story that you won’t want to miss!
This tour is one of the most FUN things you’ll do in Waco.

Waco River Cruise
Tim and Sam were a great team in our river cruise. They were both knowledgeable, entertaining, and humorous. If your in Waco you should definitely do the cruise. My daughter thinking Sam the tour guide was cute was a plus . 😊

Amazing tour with great Waco sights and recommendations!
Dano and the team made everything easy for us. From communicating before and after the tour to making us not feel bad about arriving only 5 minutes before the tour start time. 😂The tour route gave us everything we needed: ideas for places to visit and eat, the classical Fixer Upper sights, and an overall feel of Waco as a town, both past and present. Based on their recommendations for places to eat, we ended up using their list almost exclusively- and with much joy! Lastly, Dano was awesome. It was just two of us, but he was 100% so that we had the best tour experience possible. He was funny and wholesome, but most of all, insanely knowledgeable about all things Waco. And passionate about the city and continuing to make it the best it can be. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to get their bearings in a new place and who wants to see the “real” Waco.

Great introduction to Waco!
This tour is a must do if you want to get a good foundation of all things and sites to see during your stay in Waco. We were able to see all the highlights and then go back to what we wanted to visit again. Tour leader and van driver were engaging, funny and very knowledgeable on all things Waco. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience!
We had such an amazing time on our Waco tour! Liz and Leah were wonderful and very informative! There was an exciting array of stops and fun sites to see. The tour took around 2 and a half hours which was perfect. I will be coming back for the boat tour!

Waco River Night Cruise
The Captain Ed and First Mate Brendon were amazing. So much fun and loved all the history and "love stories" of the city, river, and the college even though I am a die hard Michigan Fan. Go Blue!!

Best tour I have been on!
This was one of the best tours I have ever been on. Dano and Liz have such a fun camaraderie that if I bring anyone else I will definitely request their tour. They know the history and information so well, include all the passengers and are in general very personable and fun. Loved it!
