Fun interactive tour

A fun interactive tour around Galveston. Lots of fun. We were in a mock up model T and dressed as Gangsters as we drove around the island to see the sites and history of the “free” Galveston movement.

Very fun evening! Can’t wait to go back and do a different tour.

Very fun and informative, both my parents are BOI, so I knew a little of the history. Willy Dee is an expert on it and made it a night to remember!!!

Intriguing mob history on the island

Published on Sep, 2024

It was a great evening, riding through different parts of the island and hearing of the past. Willie D and his storytelling were interesting. Loved his ability to tie the past to the present.
