So much value for money! - Due to a technical error i was the only person for this mornings tour. I offered to cancel/reschedule but he kindly declined. I expected to finish early or get a slimmed down version of the tour but Sam spoke as passionate and patiently as if there were tens of paying customers.
Being a European woman alone (husband is at a conference) i felt a bit overwhelmed and slightly intimidated by the city of Dallas and was very happy to have found this tour.
Sam has a talent for storytelling incl his extensive historical knowledge and his theatrical delivery. I forgot where i was, no longer noticed the people around me, i was IN the story.
He gave me a few minutes of his own background and asked for mine and then the tour started. That put me at ease from the start.
He adapted speed or language when he saw i didnt know the meaning of a specific word while inviting me to give my view on the different storylines. He was thoughtful and offered to sit down or stand in the shade at several different moments. Also he kindly offered to take photos of me with my phone at the location since i was alone.
To me it felt like meeting up with a friend. Time flew and he didnt look at the clock once !
I felt embarressed to not have some cash for a tip and asked for his bank details or offered him a coffee but he was very humble and declined.
He made me feel comfortable and safe and treated me with respect. This man gives you a lot of value for money! Definitely RECOMMEND.
Dutch: Sam is een enthousiaste verteller met veel historische kennis. Hij neemt je mee in het verhaal en vertelt zo kleurrijk dat je de tijd en mensen om je heen vergeet. Het was alsof ik er bij was in het moment vd moord op JFK. Ik was de enige deelnemer aan de tour vanwege technische problemen en alsnog vertelde hij ruim een uur langer als afgesproken en beantwoordde geduldig al mn vragen. Met de nodige humor waarin hij zichzelf en de Amerikanen niet schuwde. AANRADER!
French: excuses moi pour les erreurs; mon mari est français, pas moi :-). Jai vraiment adoré cet tour. Jetais tout seul a cause d'un erreur technique mais Sam a fait bcp bcp d'effort. Il est gentil, enthousiast, un expert en histoire et très passioné par le sujet, même après au moins 11 ans de tours. Il t'emmene dans un histoire vrai, comme un film. Jai oublié le temps et les gens autour de nous. Cetait mon seul truc préferé pendant ma visite à Dallas. NE MANQUE PAS!

Do it! - Our tour guide was knowledgeable and informative. We had lots of questions and he answered them all. He took his time even after the tour ended. Highly recommend this tour. There is not much walking on this tour, if that’s a worry for many people but I do recommend comfortable shoes.

Sam is incredibly... - Sam is incredibly knowledgeable about the assassination of JFK. He is theatrical and will entertain you during the experience. He took pictures of us in the areas we stopped, but there was less walking than we expected but the spots we stopped had significance to the story. If you’re looking to learn more about the event this is a great route to go.

JFK overview - This is not a long walking tour because so much occurred in a relatively small area of Dallas Texas.

JFK walk tour - Our tour guide Sam had a poor attitude for most of the tour. Left us feeling assulted and like he was paying us, instead of us paying him. Sad way to end our trip.
