South Fork - The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to ensure the experience was to expectations. The Ranch was full of memories and well worth the time to walk the exterior.

JFK, Dallas downtown, SMU drive through, Southfork. - Orlando, tour guide, has an amazing amount of knowledge and trivia about everything we saw on the tour! The tour was great—just the right amount of time for the JFK highlights, drive around downtown, and Southfork ranch. Highly recommend if you have half a day.

Great Tour of JFK Highlights and Southfork Ranch - Our tour guide Dan was wonderful! Dan is incredibly knowledgeable and presented excellent information on the highlights of the JFK assassination as we traveled out to Southfork Ranch. The guide at the ranch was excellent. There's a small museum and gift shop, so fans of the show will really enjoy the experience - Small children may not be interested.

Bucket list - My wife and her father watched this when it was aired many moons ago and was on her bucket list. It did not disappoint. Despite a tornado hitting Dallas, the tour company was excellent keeping us informed throughout. Southfork tour guides certainly know their stuff! We had the opportunity to see the whole house and learnt its history. It’s not as big as portrayed on television but wow! Definitely worth a visit.

Try get Dan he’s amazing - We had Dan who was an amazing guide & very knowledgable esp about JFK . We spoke about all sorts of things and he educated us so much on JFK things we didn’t know .What he doesn’t know isn’t worth knowing when it comes to JFK so if you get Dan be very happy you’ll learn a lot .
Southfork was brilliant and one off the bucket list .
Cannot recommend Dan highly enough and he totally deserves a raise

Company Cancels Tour the Night Before - The company texted us late the night before that they were canceling the tour because not enough people signed up. We had booked over a month in advance. I was duped by Viator, Trip Advisor, and the company when it was advertised "like to sell out." I don't have my money back so far. Had I known earlier, we could have at least booked a different tour.
