Discover Waco in a way most visitors never do.

This top-rated experience goes beyond the typical Fixer Upper tour—blending iconic homes from the show with Waco’s rich history, local stories, and hidden gems you won’t find on your own.

See beautifully renovated houses made famous by Chip & Joanna Gaines, hear behind-the-scenes insights, and explore the heart of the city with a knowledgeable, engaging guide who brings Waco to life.

Along the way, you’ll visit landmarks, uncover surprising stops, and—when available—step inside a home featured on the show for an up-close look at the craftsmanship and design.

With a relaxed pace, small-group feel, and consistently 5-star reviews, this 2-hour tour is perfect for first-time visitors, fans of the show, and anyone who wants a deeper, more memorable Waco experience.
