“Howie’s
enthusiastic and knowledgeable comments and selection of points of
interest increased my appreciation of this beautiful area. I hope to
come back and take in his other tours. So many wonderful things to
see!” – Ursula Barber, St. Louis, Missouri
“Howie’s Tours are innovative, highly informative, and great fun. He
knows more plant names than I’ve had hot dinners. I’m telling you to
try the Texpert—he
knows what he’s talking about!” – Clare de Vries, Condé Nast Travel
Writer
“We booked a tour with Howie and had a tremendous adventure. He is
articulate and well-informed and loves Austin. We wanted to experience
the wondrous “weirdness” of the area, and Mr. Richey outdid himself to
provide a great “taste” of the “weird.” In fact, one of the major
factors for our desire to return to Austin is to enjoy more trips with
Texpert Tours.
You will not be disappointed in any tour with the
absolutely wonderful Howie Richey!” – Rev. Richard
L. Eilers and Rev. Shirley Pudney Eilers, Holley, New York
“On my first trip to Texas and with only a couple of days in Austin to
explore, I wanted to find out as much as possible. Howie Richey came
highly recommended and did not disappoint. Howie is immediately
likeable, amusing, and extremely well-informed. In the space of an
afternoon I learned more about the history, flora, and fauna of Texas
than I could possibly gain from a museum (although the Texas State
History Museum is also excellent). A truly unforgettable experience.”
– Malcolm Price, Retired Lawyer, Gloucestershire, England
“Even if you’re a long-time Austin dweller, Howie Richey’s
tour of the
Capitol and downtown Austin is full of surprises. So don’t let your
out-of-town guests have all the fun—take the tour too and impress your
friends. Oh, and you know that story about why Santa Anna wasn’t
executed after he surrendered at San Jacinto? Well, it’s true!”
– Michele Pain, Austin, Texas
