Amazing tour of the JFK sites in Dallas very knowledgeable guide with lots of information about this iconic location and event.
I would highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide, Richard, was extremely informative and we learned so much. We had no idea how extensive the tour was. Richard was a journalist and absolutely provided every detail you could ever ask for. His passion for history made the tour extra awesome! Perfect amount of time and was well worth the price. Excellent service from pick-up to drop-off.
Me and my wife took the tour. Richard was the best tour guide on this subject.We were amazed of his knowledge of the assassination,Lee Harvey Oswald, and all the tour stops in the itinerary. Couldn't be better!!! You will love this tour!!!
Richard was a great host and guide. Very knowledgeable about history of this sad time. The van was so comfortable to travel in and the addition of a tv screen so that we could see images as he talked about them was amazing. His presentation was animated and well done. He made us comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our tour! Highly recommend this for your small group/private tour.
This was an excellent tour. The guide was highly knowledgeable, clearly outlining the events surrounding the assassinations of JFK and Oswald while showing us all key locations. The information was well researched and presented in way that was easy to follow. The tour appealed to everyone in our family, from teenagers to a senior. We left with a much better understanding of what happened on those fateful days and the factors that led to both shootings and the conspiracy controversy that followed. The visit to the Sixth Floor Museum at the end was a fitting way to conclude the experience.
We had a great time. The tour covers everything JFK with many details. The chance to see from the van with commentary and also on foot. Richard provided comprehensive knowledge of the events backed with images. From being in Elm St, to the boarding house and Texas theatre we seen it all. Finishing at the 6th Floor Museum.
Richard was our narrator and did an awesome job reviewing all the history/ conclusions of this huge piece of history
Richard’s tour was so informative! We enjoyed this tour very much!! And highly recommend!!! The museum was very interesting too!
We had an extraordinary experience on the tour, thanks to Rick. JFK was assassinated on my 11th birthday and I had just started watching "11.22.63". Jack, as an investgative journalist, gave a masterful and relatable performance. My wife and I were college professors of athletic training and ethics another customer a mathematician - he covered all questions expertly!
This tour was so informative. Guide shared a complete history of the JFK assassination, complete with videos, pictures, conspiracy theories and quotes from different people involved in this piece of history. Walked with us through Oswald’s boarding house, the grassy knoll, and recreated the actual way the Kennedy caravan drove through the Dallas streets. Exceeded our expectations.
Great guide!! Very enthusiastic! I learned so much about the history. Van was very clean and I enjoyed watching the video clips as we drove around to the historical sites.
First Class tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Well equipped van with video screen inside to show photos and maps applicable to the tour. We took it in January in an ice storm and our guide still managed to get us everywhere and show us everything comfortably. Highly recommend this tour and operator
Our guide, Rick Rysso, was the best. He was knowledgeable about the events surrounding that dark day in November. He shared the history with passion. I highly recommend this tour and Rick as your guide. Thank you Rick. From your Maryland friends.
Rick was the best. We toured the entire area around the depository on foot. His explanation of events was so vivid that I felt like I was watching the films. He answered all of my questions without hesitation. A tremendous source of information that I recommend highly.
My husband and 19 yr old love jfk history and this tour was perfect for them. Rick was very knowledgeable and easy going tour guide- I appreciated showing us all the different locations but giving us history as well. He was also patient with our questions. Would def recommend this and it was also fun for my 10 yr old. Thank you Rick!!!
If you’re in Dallas, this is a tour you really shouldn’t miss. It’s not just about the JFK assassination it’s about how the story is told. The guide is an incredible storyteller who keeps you engaged the entire time, connecting the locations and events in a way that actually makes everything make sense. It never feels like a history lecture. Instead, it feels like you’re being walked through the story step by step, with great pacing and thoughtful details. Whether you already know a lot about JFK or are totally new to it, you’ll walk away with a much deeper understanding. This is a unique experience you won’t get from reading or watching a documentary. If you appreciate great storytelling and want something memorable to do in Dallas, this tour is absolutely worth it.
The JFK tour was very informative. Our guide was very detailed and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend. Also enjoyed the musuem.
I booked the JFK tour with Rick of Epic Dallas Tours on 11/23/25. Where do I begin? Rick was informative, engaging, respectful, and genuinely passionate. His retelling of a real-life assassination story was so vivid that I could see every moment as if it were happening right in front of me. He carefully guided us through each location and thoughtfully explained the context and motivations behind the JFK assassination. By far the best tour I've ever had. Thank you, Rick!
Very informative and interesting. Answered all our questions. Oswald home really surprising as went inside. . A lot of side streets with unusual tales . A lot of effort put into tour by Rick. Highly recommend.
Our guide, Rick, was very informative about the Kennedy assassination. He brought the event to life.
