"THE CULTURED COWBOY"
This tour theme makes the most of Fort Worth's three distinct entertainment
districts. Start your tour in the Stockyards
National Historic District where you will experience daily longhorn
cattle drives, an authentic cattle auction, a live rodeo, or watch a leather
craftsman tool a handmade saddle or pair of boots. Drop by the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame and
see the Sterquell Wagon Collection. Have a meal at one
of the great restaurants, enjoy a drink and live music at one of the famous
honky-tonks and stroll through some of the country's best Western shopping.
Just a few miles from the Stockyards, discover the Fort Worth Cultural
District where you will visit five of the most acclaimed museums in
the Southwest: Kimbell
Art Museum, Amon
Carter Museum, Fort
Worth Museum of Science and History, Modern
Art Museum of Fort Worth, and the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame. As you head from the Cultural District
to Sundance
Square in historic Downtown Fort Worth you will make a
stop at the Cattle
Raisers Museum before taking in the great cafés, restaurants,
theatres and shopping in this beautiful revitalized area. This area, called
"Hell's Half Acre" in the days of the great cattle drives, is now a place
where you will polish your best boots and head to the opera, a Broadway
musical or a Willie Nelson concert.
"CITY SLICKERS IN COWTOWN"
This tour theme gives city folks a chance to experience the best of the
old west cowboy days. Start your tour in the Stockyards
National Historic District (as detailed above) then move on to
the Sundance Square Historic Downtown where you will make
a stop the Sid
Richardson Collection of Western Art before visiting the Cattle
Raisers Museum. From there you can try to catch one of the many
great horse and livestock shows at the Will
Rogers Memorial Center in the Fort Worth Cultural District.
After all of this cowboy fun in Cowtown take the group out to one of the
Working Ranches near Fort Worth for a chuck-wagon lunch or dinner
with a cowboy singer entertaining you around the campfire. Ranch visits
can be designed to include line-dancing lessons and mini-rodeos. In Fort
Worth we can provide as much cowboy adventure as you think your city slickers
can handle.
