Dallas
Located in a former book depository in Dealey Plaza, where President Kennedy was assassinated, this museum pays tribute to the life, times, death and legacy of JFK. Once you’ve swotted up on your history and built up an appetite, enjoy a walking tour of the sights and sounds of Dallas with food tasting at some of the city’s best restaurants on your included Uptown Foodie Walk.
4* Fairmont Dallas Hotel
Uptown Foodie Walk
Graham
Here, you can take a horseback ride, go hiking and biking, take a guided 4x4 tour of the estate, or try your hand at clay pigeon shooting. Take a boat trip on the nearby Possum Kingdom Lake, known locally as PK, or perhaps go fishing or just relax over a leisurely picnic. Back on the ranch, take a wagon ride, feed the cattle, or listen to old western tunes played on the guitar.
4* Wildcatter Ranch & Resort
Austin
Perhaps take a walk around the grounds of the prestigious University of Texas, where the famous UT Tower offers a great view over campus and its surrounds or maybe follow the trails to the Colorado River at the Colorado River Metropolitan Park. If nature’s your bag then head down to Austin’s Congress Avenue Bridge at dusk to see the largest urban bat colony in the world.
