Fort Worth is where the West begins, and nothing embodies Western heritage better than the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District. From the original brick walkways to the wooden corrals, every inch of the Stockyards tells the true history of Texas’ famous livestock industry.
On the way to the Stockyards, your tour guide will drive you past some of downtown Fort Worth’s attractions and point out landmarks along the way. After the driving portion of the tour, your tour guide will walk you through the Stockyards and provide fun facts about the area’s history. After that, guests will roam the area on their own and can participate in designated activities or shop.
While there, you can choose your adventure and head over to experience the Cowtown Cattlepen Maze or snag a selfie on a real Texas Longhorn to show your friends and family.
Once you are done with those activities or if you are more of a shop-till-you-drop kind of person, feel free to visit all the shops over by the train station for souvenirs and tasty treats. The options are endless!
