Detours has been a family business since the very beginning.

“When I started the company, my twins were just 9 months old. They grew up helping with practice tours, setting up props, and cheering me on every step of the way.”

That same spirit of connection and hospitality continues to shape every Detours experience today.

Yesterday, we welcomed a group of 60 guests on our JFK History Tour in Dallas.

Because a great guide doesn’t just show you where history happened they explain why it matters, answer your questions in real time, and share the stories that bring each stop to life.
