WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Magnolia Silos
Join us for a day tour, as we travel to Waco, Texas for a little Magnolia Market magnificence and some HGTV's Fixer Upper fun! Start your day heading south on I-35 towards the famous Magnolia Market at the Silos! We also visit Magnolia Table and Magnolia Press Coffee Shop. During the drive, your Tour Guide will entertain you with interesting stories of the history of Texas. We will arrive in Waco, Texas before you know it! There's something for everyone at Magnolia Market at the Silos. Shopping, games, the garden and even a bite to eat. Treat Yourself to Silos Baking Co., the on-site bakery filled with Joanna's personal recipes. Stop by the Garden; Joanna's vision was that the garden would be a space where the family can explore together and learn the lessons of the garden. Visit Magnolia Seed & Supply. This little shop sells gardening tools and supplies. Relax on the Lawn….On the big green lawn at the center of the property, enjoy the big box full of games. Most every sunny day, the lawn is covered up with parents and kiddos playing corn-hole, having potato sack races and throwing the football around. The lawn games make this more than a place to shop, but also a place to play and enjoy time with family and friends, have a picnic in the shade or grab a bite to eat at the Food Trucks. Visit Jimmy Don’s 36-foot-long trailer in the [Magnolia] parking lot. An estimated 400 people a day drift over from Magnolia Market to browse and take selfies with him. A short drive from Magnolia Market at the Silos is the Magnolia Table. As time and availability permits, enjoy a meal (not included) with your friends and family or pick something up to-go.
2. JDH Iron Designs
Visit Jimmy Don’s JDH Iron Designs, cute shop; specializing in custom metal art designs from wall art and home decor to custom projects & everything in between. An estimated 400 people a day drift over from Magnolia Market. Jimmy Don is often on site and guests love to meet him and take photos.
3. The Cottonland Castle
Visit the Castle Heights neighborhood to see Cottonland Castle. Chip and Jo just completed the renovation of a century-old castle in the heart of Waco. Stop by for photos.
4. Waco Suspension Bridge
Waco’s Historic Suspension Bridge was the longest single-span suspension bridge west of the Mississippi when it was completed in 1870. The bridge was built with cable supplied by the John Roebling Co., who built the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. Crucial to traders, cattle drives and travelers for well over a century, the bridge stands as an icon of Waco history. In 2008, the first pieces of the “Branding the Brazos” sculptures made their debut next to the bridge. The towering Chisholm Trail sculptures, crafted by Robert Summers, include an over-sized, bronze trail boss driving Longhorns crossing the Brazos.
5. Magnolia Silos
Stop by Magnolia Table, Chip and Jo's popular restaurant for breakfast or lunch, (reservation required) specializing in fresh, homegrown ingredients and good, old-fashioned cooking. Visit The Table's Gift Shop to pick up a memory of your visit.

What a smart move to reserve Discover Dallas Tour Company! Our guide, Rebecca, was a wealth of knowledge. She has so many interesting sites and stories to share. I wouldn't hesitate to book any of their tours. We will definitely be back in the Dallas area for more!

My wife and I had a wonderful tour of Waco and Magnolia Market at the Silos, with Rebecca as our friendly and very informative guide! I highly recommend this fun and delightful day! We had a great lunch at the Magnolia Table restaurant. Later we enjoyed super delicious cupcakes at the Silos Baking company! We got to meet a very nice man named Jimmy Don, who was on Fixer Upper quite often! All in all, we loved our visit to Waco, and would recommend this tour to everyone!

We stopped by for just a few minutes on our way from Dallas to San Antonio. The market was clean and designed for family fun. I loved the whiffle ball field! There were many food trucks available and the garden was amazing. Be sure to visit the Bakery!

We had a fantastic day with our guide Erin! We had private tour. She took such good care of us, and we got to see several of the fixer upper houses. I think our favorite part of the day was the food. We got to dine at Magnolia Table and grab a cupcake to go from the Silos Bakery. Shopping at the Silos was a blast and we got so many great photos while on the property. Erin gave us a lot of history about Dallas, Waco, and some great behind the scenes info about Fixer Upper. I highly recommend this tour and would definitely seek their services again while staying in Dallas.

All I knew about the Silos was from watching Chip & Joanna on TV. What a fun time! Very family-oriented. Clean, hdcp accessible, pet-friendly, no smoking, clean bathrooms, plentiful shopping (pricey), and food trucks galore. We ate from the Grilled Cheese truck and had a Sweet Tea jar. It was great fun.

My partner and I had a fantastic day on our private tour with Rebecca to Waco & Magnolia Market at the Silos.

Booking the tour from Australia prior to our trip was a breeze and Rebecca sent us pick up information and her contact details a few days before our tour. She even made us a booking at Magnolia Table months in advance so we didn't miss out.

We were picked up by Rebecca in her incredibly clean and comfortable Lexus SUV right on time, and she kept us entertained for the 90 minute drive to Waco with her knowledge about Dallas, Waco and the Magnolia Silos. Rebecca drove us around Waco, showing us The Castle, some of the houses from Fixer Upper and the main sights of Waco that were recognisable from the show. We had breakfast at Magnolia Table and wandered through the grounds and gift store, before stopping in at Harp Design Co and JDH Iron Designs where we had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy Don.

Of course the highlight of our day was visiting Magnolia Market at the Silos. Rebecca shared my excitement at finally visiting the place that had been on my bucket list for many years, and was incredibly patient with me as I constantly stopped to take photos and videos. We spent a few hours walking the grounds, browsing the Shops at the Silos, Magnolia Market and Magnolia Home, checking out all of the buildings and spaces around the Silos, and of course stopping for a cupcake from the Silos Baking Co.

Rebecca was a wonderful tour guide who we hit it off with from the second we met. This made our day so much more enjoyable, and we would absolutely recommend this tour to anybody wanting to visit Waco & Magnolia Market at the Silos from Dallas. We can't wait to return and do this tour again!
