Enjoy Corpus Christi Tours

This historical tour was very interesting. Susan & Renee, tour directors were great. I knew some of the things like "Howard Edward Butt Sr. (HEB) (April 9, 1895 - March 12, 1991) was an American businessman, and CEO of the H-E-B grocery store chain, which was founded by his mother, Florence Thornton Butt, in 1905. Early life [ edit] Howard Butt was youngest of the three sons born to Charles Butt, a pharmacist from Memphis, and Florence Thornton Butt." I knew about the Seawall, the Whaterburger history, etc. but I did not know about the Old Bay Cemetary. I knew nothing about 104-year-old Perry Boone who requested he be buried in Old Bayview Cemetary. I knew nothing about the Hillcrest African American neighborhood, some interesting historical information. I knew nothing about the 1919 Florida Keys Hurricane which heavily damaged the old Nueces County Court House and the hurricane caused catastrophic damage in the city with debris scattered across the downtown area, and roughly $20 million in (1919 USD) in damage. The dead were laid in front of the courthouse on the lawn so families could identify them. I am sure this old courthouse is haunted . The painted murals around town on different buildings were quite beautiful. Overall the bus tour was air conditioned, interesting, informative and very nice. RECOMMENDATION: I recommend this bus tour if visiting Corpus Christi, TX.

We've been on ECCT's "Ghost Tour" twice and their Christmas Lights Tour once. I have to say, these folks do Corpus Christi right! Each time they were well organized, punctual, and always added extra touches to the tour to personalize the experience. To her credit, Susan has a VAST knowledge of Corpus Christi history. She injects humor and personal commentary to make the tour that much more interesting. Often, she and Rene will stop and allow extra time for guests to get the right photo or do an impromptu paranormal investigation. Likewise, Rene's always conscious of safety with regard to his driving and parking locations. They both keep the tour moving and on time. If you get a chance, I HIGHLY recommend the Ghost Tour - heck, I recommend ALL their tours!! You won't be disappointed.

Another reason to go local! Rene and Susan are very professional, knowledgable and most importantly fun! Myself and my friends recently took the ghost tour with them. really enjoyed being able to go into one of the oldest buildings in Corpus Christi (lots of energy in that building). Learning about the history of the sites and Corpus Christi adds great value to the tour as well. I will definitely be recommending and looking into booking the other types of tours they offer. Lastly, I'm very appreciative of their mask policy. Thank you!

Get it while you can!This tour is hosted by Rene and Susan. They are a married couple and both do the tour. It's small enough that no one gets lost. The presentation kept us engaged in the history of the city. It made Corpus Christi Come Alive. New van they even through in an extra for our tour. This is the type tour company that will grow in popularity, tour with the owners while you can.

This was one of the most interesting tours I've been on! It's informative, interesting, and spooky!!!The tour guides are very knowledgeable and entertaining. Highly recommend!
