Dog days, plural noun: the period between early July and early September when the hot sultry weather of summer usually occurs in the northern hemisphere.

Sounds about right šŸ˜‚šŸ„µ

Weā€™re hiring! If you enjoy getting paid to meet great people from all over the world, share the complex and exciting history of our city, and have a ton of fun while doing it, then we absolutely have a plan for the next employment phase of your life šŸ˜‚

Our reviews on TripAdvisor say it all! ā€œAmazing & entertainingā€, ā€œa wealth of knowledgeā€, ā€œoutstandingā€, ā€œour guides remembered us when we crossed paths the next dayā€ā€”just a few ways our guides have been described in recent TripAdvisor reviews.

We are officially rollinā€™ on the river! After a record month of rainfall in May, the Brazos and Bosque Rivers are finally safely navigable. We are SO grateful for everyoneā€™s patience as we decided to wait out the chaotic weather before hosting this nationally acclaimed experience. We refuse to offer a subpar product OR to put any of our guests or team in danger.

Cruises are selling out quick, so head on over to waco-tours.com and book a few seats on the #1 Boat Tour in North America (according to USA Today in both 2020 and 2023!)

ā€œSo, how did a tour company in Waco, TX become the attraction with the most 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor in the whole town?!ā€

Thatā€™s a great question šŸ˜‚ Part of it is that Waco and its residents are awesome. We are genuine fans, not only of Fixer Upper, but of the city of Waco. Part of it is that our owners worked really hard on a crazy-sounding idea and didnā€™t let the naysayers have the final word. But, if you read even a few of those 5000+ 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor, youā€™ll see that our guests pretty much all agree: itā€™s our people. We hire the kindest, funniest, most hospitable folks in Texas, train the heck out of ā€˜em, and let ā€˜em loose to make their mark on Waco and on each and every guest that sits on our vans or boats.

What are you waiting for?! Come meet the best-reviewed tour guides in the city of Wacoā€”heck, maybe even the state of Texas!

Book today at waco-tours.com!

Many guests have reached out and inquired as to whether or not our river cruises are currently running. Due to the very swollen conditions on the Brazos & Bosque rivers, our cruises have not run consistently for close to three weeks now. The safety and comfort of our guests and our team is our biggest priority, and we don't want to offer a subpar product just to keep the boats on the water. Once the water levels recede to an operable height, our restroom break access on the river reopens, and our captains deem it safe to continue, we will reopen the experience that has twice been named the #1 Boat Tour in North America by USA Today. Until then, we are so grateful for your patience and understanding.

The Waco Tours Way is a way of excellence, and we do our best to maintain that standard in all aspects of our operations. We look forward to hosting you on the water as soon as possible! Please feel free to email [email protected] with any and all questions.
