Keith’s Blog – Mid-October 2018
Welcome Fans, Friends, and Visitors,
Hello to all of our new and continuing members. In the past month from September 15th to the present, my tour guides and I have had the pleasure to conduct tours for hundreds of people to and of:
- City Tour A2
- City Tour B
- Multiple City Tours
- Tunnel Tour B3
- Tunnel Tour A3
- Heights Tour B
- Haunted Tour C
- Haunted Tour D
- Customized History Tour
Now that we are in the month of October and the temperatures are becoming more moderate, we offer over one dozen outdoor walking tours. We only offer these tours through March. By April, the temperature are just too hot and the weather too humid. In 2000, when I began the company, we offered these tours year round, but over the years, we have continued to make adjustments due to the changing climate. Take advantage of some of these tours to see different parts of Houston.
See the October blog from 2 weeks ago to see special offers that we are offering this month.
I occasionally ask trivia questions to provide discounts for our clientele to earn if they like Houston history. I am a sports fan and Houston fan. October is the best month to follow sports as we have baseball, basketball, football, and soccer all being played. Be the first to answer the following questions to receive a 20% discount off any local tour, excluding additional expenses such as admissions to museums or institutions.
- From what city and in what year did the Houston Rockets come here?
- From what city and in what year did the Houston Dynamo come here?
- In what year did the baseball team first play and what was the original name of the Houston Astros?
- What was the last year of the Houston Oilers and what was the first year of the Houston Texans?
- What were the last years of the major league Houston Aeros and the minor league Houston Aeros?
Good luck!
