Lara Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Does anyone here know of any such tours? I think this would be a fantastic way to get to know the ins-and-outs of the neighborhoods around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanith27 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Don't know of anything except for a real estate agent, but there's no shortage of neighborhood opinions here either! What are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Thanks for the reply! Well, I do a lot of amateur photography in my spare time and I like a good story to go with my photos. Neighborhoods that are steep in history like The Heights inspire me in this way; I just wish I could get a bit more background information.

UtterlyUrban Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Try the AIA. Great walking tours. They focus on certain neighborhoods or Areas. They also have some bike tours. They cover the heights, montrose, downtown, Rice University, and others. I can vouch for them as quality tours, focused on architecture first but history too. Really, the nexus of both. I think that you will enjoy them and they will give you context for the new city that you call home! https://aiahouston.org/v/site-home/ArCH-WalkingTours/3r/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 Thanks for the information, Utterly Urban, this is just what I was looking for! The bicycle tours seem especially suited to my liking. I might sign up for the upcoming Houston Heights Bicycle Tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
