If you want to see all that Galveston Island has to offer, you will want to come with Joyride to capture all the history, fun and excitement that one of the oldest cities in Texas has to offer. Our tour guides share the knowledge of how the Storm of 1900 devastated the city and changed its trajectory for development. They know fun facts that kept the city thriving through the rough times of rebuilding and how Clara Barton played a special role in the city as well. They share tidbits of the intrigue, mystery and “illegal” activities that surrounded the city before and after the big storm! If you love old buildings and homes, you will love The Strand area! Let your guides show you what Galveston offers today and what makes it thrive like no other city in Texas.
