The top highlight of the city is an incredibly informative museum on
JFK’s family, life, politics, and theories on his death at the site of
his tragic assassination.2. Dallas Museum of Art
The Dallas Museum of Art is one of the largest museums in American. The
permanent collection is free to the public. Clear your day as five hours isn’t enough to take it all in.3. Dallas World Aquarium
Lots of winding levels and pathways will take you through different aquatic habitats around the world at the giant Dallas aquarium.
4. Dallas Zoo
Have fun feeding the giraffes and birds alongside the zoo’s friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great for animal-lovers of all ages.
5. Klyde Warren Park
Klyde Warren Park is the city’s green lung located in downtown Dallas. Great for an afternoon picnic or checking out the street food scene and getting lunch from a food truck.

Planning Your Visit
Mexican Food
Whether its real Dallas Tex Mex style—that’s a combo plate slathered in ranchero sauce—or traditional Mexican food, this city is home to some of the best in the country. Tacos are good for breakfast, lunch and dinner and there’s always room for guacamole while visiting Dallas.
Dallas Weather is Tricky
Don’t be fooled by its location on the map; a winter in Dallas can be cold and windy. And of course, for about four months of the year, it’s unbearably hot. Pack wisely; this ain’t Los Angeles.

What people are saying about Dallas
The van was incredibly clean, and our tour guide wore a mask and had hand sanitizer that he used and offered frequently. Myself, I 22-year-old son and my 16-year-old son decided to go on this tour based on the reviews and I can’t convey how fantastic it truly is!!!!! It’s almost impossible to find something that the three of us all enjoy and they said they would love to do it again!!!! The tour guide Mr. Johnny made the whole experience real, interactive and extremely educational!!!! Truly one of the best tours I have been on in the world!
The Sixth Floor Museum is excellent and would recommend to everyone. However, the combination of the museum AND the tour to the other associated sites connected to Oswald/Ruby prior to and after the assassination were outstanding. We went to sites in the Dallas area related to Oswald's movements that you would not believe are still there and available just as they were over 56 years ago. Our guide, Orlando, was excellent. Get him if you can.
This was definitely the way to go to fully understand and appreciate what happened on those fateful days in November, 1963 when JFK was assassinated. You'll come away from the tour feeling like you have had a very close look at what happened, and you'll still have many unanswered questions. (But they'll be better questions!)
This was a great tour. Orlando is very knowledgeable. We toured all the high points of interest from the tragic assassination of John F Kennedy. We highly recommend this tour and Orlando! Thank you!
Our guide was tremendous and very knowledgeable of the area. The highlands were amazing. I would recommend bringing some water and something light to snack on chips crackers cheese
