    Rip Off

    Don't do it. You can walk through this park anytime. There was no one monitoring this. Viator this is a SCAM

    Response from the operator: Hi Larry, It looks like you did not get the walkntours app :( or take the tour :(. 1000's take our tours and love it, so I'm really bummed it did not work out for you! I'm happy to refund you, please email your details to info@walkntours.com. Thanks! Greg @ WalknTours

    Good audio tour

    Best audio tour we’ve been on. My husband and I shared AirPods. App tracked where we we at and adjusted accordingly. Learned a few details about the 1921 Tulsa riot I didn’t know. Would recommend to anyone interested in learning and touring black Wall Street.

    Easy to schedule: Black Wall Street tour

    The last part of the tour is closed for renovations: Black cultural center. Church closed during week days.

    Horrible

    This was one of the worse experiences. The "hook Up"" place had no idea what we were talking about although we showed them the confirmation. We ended up paying locals for information!!!!We were not the only ones that have been scammed. The info on your site is not accurate. Please take it down !!!!!!

    Poor service..

    Took our money. No guide showed up for the tour!!!! Tried to call and no one answered. We will not use them again.

    Response from the operator: Hi, this is a self guided tour on the WalknTours app :). The ticket is in Viator, I also sent a text with a copy of the ticket with the instructions :). I'm happy to refund you, please text me at 617-991-3269 or email me at info@walkntours.com. I'm sorry this did not work out, it's a great story and tour, please do contact me and I'll help. Thanks!

    Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tulsa.

    How much does Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tulsa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tulsa is not rushed.

    Is Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.2/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tulsa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tulsa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tulsa and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tulsa’s Black Wall Street 1921 Massacre Self Guided Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tulsa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Tulsa?

    +

    Tulsa, OK packs its best experiences into walkable neighborhoods, local food, and day trips nearby. Outty ranks every bookable tour and activity in Tulsa by rating quality, review depth, booking demand and value, so you can see the standouts before you book. On Outty we rank every Tulsa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tulsa Art Deco and Architecture with Expert Guide Walking Tour, Tulsa History Tour with Oil Baron's Tunnel, True Crime and Haunted History. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Tulsa?

    +

    Spring and fall bring the best weather and lighter crowds in Tulsa, while summer has the widest choice of tours and evening activities. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Tulsa?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
