JFK & Dealey Plaza Tour
Friday, August 31, 2012
Morning
$50 per person
November 22, 1963... a day that lives in the memory of millions of people around the world. Your tour will explore the JFK-related sites—Dealey Plaza, the triple underpass, the former Texas Schoolbook Depository—all of which are a part of the history of John F. Kennedy.
Your guide will discuss the findings of the Warren Commission Report. A walking tour of Dealey Plaza will encompass the "grassy knoll" and standing on the corner of Elm and Houston Streets to view the sixth floor corner window where alleged assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, fired the shot that killed the 35th President of the United States. Your guide will also discuss the different theories about what may have occurred, the location of the witnesses and their statements.
Next, you will retrace the footsteps of Oswald when he exited the Texas School Depository Building; view part of the motorcade route; drive past 1026 Beckley Avenue, the boarding house where Oswald lived at the time of the assassination; the shooting site of Officer J.D. Tippitt and the relevance of this shooting to the JFK story; and the Texas Theater where Oswald was arrested.
Visit The Sixth Floor Museum, where you will enjoy a recorded audio tour. The exhibit features almost 400 historic photographs, six documentary films, a range of artifacts and interpretive displays to document the life, times, death and legacy of President John F. Kennedy.
Roundtrip motorcoach transfer included.
