SUMMARY:Port to Port History Boat Tour
DESCRIPTION:Time: 10 am – 12 pm \nPrice: $45 \nThe Port to Port Tour is a cruise east of downtown on Buffalo Bayou from Allen’s Landing to the Port of Houston Turning Basin. \nIn 1914 with the opening of the Houston Ship Channel and the modern Port of Houston\, the section of Buffalo Bayou from the port’s turning basin to the foot of Main Street (now known as Allen’s Landing) was called the upper channel. \nVery few Houstonians today get to experience the upper channel by boat which has a very different environment from that of the bayou west of downtown. \nJoin bayou guide Andrew Groocock on a historical tour of the upper channel of Buffalo Bayou focusing on the historic significance of this industrial stretch and Houston\, as you cruise the approximately seven miles from the old port of Houston to the new port of Houston. \nPurchase Tickets
