About this event

  • 4 hours 30 minutes

Without a doubt, one of the most popular things for people to do when they explore Victoria is our Old Victoria Driving Tour, featuring over 80 homes and properties. Many of these are listed on the National Register of Historic Places! However, until now it's always been a self-guided trek. Besides the annual Historic Homes Tour, presented by Victoria Preservation, Inc., there wasn't a way to hear all the cool stories and more insights into the unique architectural features of each building.

To celebrate as Victoria Turns 200, we'll be offering just that! Once a month, the beautiful trolley from Texas Coast Limousines will take attendees along the oak-lined streets in and around Downtown Victoria to see our most venerable structures.

The tour will begin with a guided tour inside the 1892 Victoria County Courthouse, then to the trolley for a guided driving tour of Old Victoria, and finishing with a prix fixe lunch at the historic PumpHouse Riverside Restaurant & Bar!

This will be a ticketed event, but all of the wonderful experiences listed above will be included in your ticket price. Nice and easy! Please see the schedule of tour dates listed below, and we hope you can join us!
