A few words on Dallas
Oil, ambition, and a city that built itself from scratch.
Dallas has no natural port, no significant river, no obvious geographical reason to exist where it does -- and yet it became one of the ten largest cities in the United States through sheer force of commercial will. The Texas railroads chose it, then oil chose it, then banking chose it, and each time the skyline grew accordingly. Dealey Plaza, where John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, sits just west of downtown, and the Sixth Floor Museum in the former Texas School Book Depository has become one of the most visited history sites in the country.
The Dallas that surprises visitors is the one off the tourist circuit.
Deep Ellum was the blues and jazz district in the 1920s and has cycled through abandonment and revival several times since, arriving at its current iteration as a walkable strip of live music venues, murals and craft cocktail bars. The Bishop Arts District in Oak Cliff -- once thoroughly overlooked -- is now the neighbourhood that food writers send each other to. Texas BBQ here means brisket with a bark, Tex-Mex means enchiladas with a pool of chili gravy, and a kolache from a Czech-Texan bakery is the only correct breakfast.

Dallas FAQ
Before you walk.
Dallas is a car-centric city and many of its neighbourhoods are spread out. However, Deep Ellum, downtown and the Arts District are all walkable once you're there. The DART light rail connects downtown with several key areas. Uber is reliable for getting to tour starting points.
Deep Ellum, Uptown, the Arts District and Bishop Arts District are all comfortable to walk with headphones during the day and early evening. Like most large US cities, some peripheral areas require more situational awareness. Stick to well-lit, well-populated streets after dark.
Lightweight clothing and sunscreen are essential in warmer months. Dallas in summer is one of the hottest cities in the US, so a hat and water bottle are not optional. In winter, temperatures can drop suddenly -- a light jacket covers most eventualities.
Yes -- and you should. Deep Ellum has excellent taco spots and bars that open mid-morning. Pecan Lodge, one of Dallas's most celebrated BBQ joints, is in Deep Ellum and worth timing a lunch stop around. Bishop Arts has coffee shops and brunch spots ideal for a mid-tour break.

This tour was such a great way to see the city. The stories were interesting without feeling too scripted, and I loved being able to explore at my own pace.

This was a solid way to get to know Brighton without feeling like a tourist. The narration had depth and context, but didn't overdo it.
