ABOUT: Sandra Lord, owner of Discover Houston Tours, is a Yankee from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, who got here as fast as she could. Since 1988, she has designed and conducted 3,473 tours for more than 46,000 people from around the world.
On her tours, you'll experience history, art, architecture, shopping, dining, and more, all flavored with Houston's unique multicultural spirit. Sandra is also known as the "Tunnel Lady," because she introduced the Downtown Houston Tunnel System to the world. In the Tunnel, the weather is always clear and cool and there are over 100 places to eat. The Tunnel is open during business hours on weekdays. It is closed at night, on weekends, and national holidays. To tour the Tunnel on your own, call Sandra and ask about purchasing my self-guiding TunnelWalk & Rail Tour booklet. Allow two weeks for delivery.
Over the years, Discover Houston Tours has received worldwide publicity. Recently, Malcolm Brown, broadcast journalist with Feature Story News, did two stories on the Tunnel System, one for Voice of America and one for Channel News Asia. The Tunnel was also featured on KHOU-TV's Great Day Houston and in a New York Times story by Ralph Blumenthal. Thanks to Rob Peirson of California, DHT's Downtown Holiday Walk & Rail Tour is on YouTube. Click here to watch.
