JFK Assassination Tour with Oswald's Rooming House

A Day with JFK

I chose this tour to pass some time before my flight and although I had been to the area before, I had never been with a local tour guide. When you visit with a guide you are exposed to hidden gems, local myths, and obscure details that you didn’t know you didn’t know! Isaac was great. He text me his location for any questions, to ensure I had the meeting point, and was on track to start with the group. Yes, it is a walking tour, but we drove around downtown first to learn more about the history of Dallas, downtown Dallas, and JFK’s route. That was also a needed escape because the temperature and humidity was in full force. We then walked the perimeter of the school book depository, Dealey Plaza, and grassy knoll. Isaac had water and fans, which was awesome! Lastly, we visited Lee Harvey Oswald’s rooming house, JD Pruiit’s memorial, and the Texas theatre. Isaac closed by sending me links to explore more information on the events of that fateful day. Very informative. As a true JFK fan I enjoyed the tour and the social atmosphere. Thanks Isaac!

Disappointing

As out of towners we knew that going to the Kennedy museum was a priority. But we find out after the fact that you don’t go into the museum , you can drop us off there, but we have the paying additional $50 to you to go into the Museum.. We just didn’t want to take a ride. We wanted to get out and look at things. We sacrificed over $110 to your company and didn’t even take advantage of it because we really didn’t think that the tour was gonna be what we wanted. It didn’t sound anything like we wanted to do that’s why we want we took it upon ourselves to go to the museum. If there was a way that I could get my money back I would very disappointed in the explanations given in the third-party app that you made us take on to buy this package.

Response from the operator: We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed, but we believe this review misrepresents what occurred. We offer several different JFK tour options to accommodate different budgets and preferences. Some tours include admission to the Sixth Floor Museum, while others do not. You specifically booked the option that does not include museum tickets. This information is clearly outlined in the tour description, itinerary, and inclusions before a reservation is confirmed. What we do not understand is the expectation that museum admission should have been included free of charge when it was never purchased. The museum charges an admission fee, and those tickets are only included with the tour option that is specifically advertised as including them. Unfortunately, we cannot provide tickets that were never purchased as part of the reservation. Nothing about your tour changed after booking, and there were no hidden fees or last-minute surprises. The reservation you made was for the exact tour that was provided. While we certainly understand that you ultimately decided you wanted a different experience, that does not mean the tour was inaccurately described. We always encourage guests to review the itinerary and inclusions before purchasing so they can choose the package that best fits what they are looking for. Had you selected the JFK tour that includes Sixth Floor Museum admission, you would have received exactly the experience you were expecting.
