Great Tour! - This was one of the highlights of our trip to Fredericksburg. We saw and learned things we'd never have discovered on our own. Dave, our guide, was amazing and encylopedic in his knowledge of the area's history and architecture. The combination of Texas culture and German tradition makes this town unique. Really a special place! Their pride and care in the community is evident everywhere you look.

Historic district tour of Fredericksburg - We took the historic district tour so that we would be able to get the lay of the town and see potential places we wanted to visit later. Our tour guide was very friendly, knew the wonderful history of Fredericksburg and even had additional historic pictures to enhance our tour. He knew so much and we really learned a lot. We were even treated to a song on an old pump organ in a historic church. Couldn’t have been more pleased with our tour and guide.

One of the best tour guides ever - This is a fantastic tour. The tour guide was one of the best I have ever used - the guide even added an extra stop that was truly fascinating - an AME church being renovated.

Excellent historian! - Dave Schafer is so knowledgeable and demonstrates a profound respect for the community and cultures that make up Fredericksburg. We were fortunate to have him as a guide. His insights helped direct our visit. My boyfriend and I left feeling we knew the community so well & that there is more to see & learn. We will be back!

Discovering the history - Excellent tour. Our tour guide/driver, Dave, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic in sharing the history of Fredericksburg. Combined both the history and tying it into the present day. So happy we did this at the very beginning of our time in Fredericksburg.
