    Things to do In Dallas

    • Visit the Sixth Floor Museum–  It’s full of history and well worth a visit, especially if you purchase a Dallas CityPass, as the museum is one of the sights that is included.
    • Dealey Plaza- Located just outside of The Sixth Floor Museum, Dealey Plaza is the location of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.  Consider taking the JFK Assassination and Museum Tour for a first-hand experience from a local guide.  This is a must for history buffs.
    • Walk the beautiful gardens of the Dallas Arboretum.  Choose admission to the Arboretum or the George W. Bush Library as part of your Dallas CityPass.
    • While at the Arboretum, partake in afternoon tea at the historic DeGoyler House.
    • Get hands on with exhibits at The Perot Museum.   Your Dallas CityPass includes admission to The Perot and is a great way to save money if you are visiting several attractions in Dallas.
    • You will find way more than books at the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum.  Inside you will find a full-size replica of the Oval Office, the original White House Situation Room, and the “Nation Under Attack” exhibit displaying items from the September 11th terroristic attacks. You can choose the George W. Bush Library or The Dallas Arboretum as part of your Dallas CityPass.
    • The Dallas Museum of Art.   I told you everything is bigger in Texas, and this museum lives up to that motto.  With over 159,000 square feet of exhibit space, the Dallas Museum of Art is one of the largest museums in the United States.
    • Get your mind blown at the Museum of Illusion.  Ok, not literally, but this is a really fun museum to go to with your loved ones.  You can spend the afternoon learning all about illusions and taking some fabulous pictures like we did.  Head to our Instagram page to check these out.
    • Learn the history and culture of Dallas at The Old Red Museum.
    • Take a step back into a historical village at the Dallas Heritage Village.
