This is an excellent activity to do in Branson away from all the cheesy shows giving you a chance…read moreto enjoy some of the regional wines and a historic distillery while taking in the sites. Tour is very well organized. The Bear Creek Winery is in an amazing location with great views from the deck. Driver was very friendly although I'd recommend being proactive about asking questions about the area as the tasting and dinner is the focus, this isn't a sightseeing tour per se outside the 4 stops. Dinner was downtown in the new area of Branson and food and service were good but not "gourmet" about what you'd expect as this isn't a foodie tour. You have a choice of chicken, steak, or salmon. Given the reasonable price for the whole experience though, if you are a steak connoisseur I'd skip the steak, not bad at all, but the Salmon and Chicken are in my opinion better options if you are finicky about your steak.

We had 9 people to tour the second weekend in December. They were able to get us a driver and van…read morebut had to pay for a private tour due to our group size. For the price (just under $700) the tour was not worth it. A lot of lights were out during our drive thru at Great Wolf Lodge. We then went through the Joy lights that were pirate themed. Not impressed with either display. At one of the gingerbread stops, our group went to grab some waters/soda, when I informed our driver, she said she had bottled water the whole time. On our way back to our drop off location, we experienced a blown tire. Our driver tried contacting her company and she said no one would answer her. I ended up texting the owner informing him that we were on the side of the road with a flat and no one would answer to help her. I received no response but moments after the texts were sent, our driver received a phone call. My husband and brother in law ended up changing the tire so we could be on our way. Our driver told us the owner would be in contact to "take care of the incident and help she received from our group". A week after the tour, I had to reach out to the company because I did not hear from them. The owner Joe called and had a list of excuses as to why he didn't reach out. He also told me that when he received word of us on the side of the road, he had to step out of a show he was viewing while on vacation with his wife. He told me he fired our driver and she had our contact information. He didn't want to tell me how much he would refund so he didn't insult us. he wanted us to tell him how much we wanted. After discussing with our group, we decided on a reimbursement amount and I texted Joe (the owner). We came upon an amount by saving someone from changing the tire and also not missing our driver's second tour that evening. My second text was to confirm he could just refund my credit card and not mail a check and he said yes. Another week goes by with no credit card refund. I texted the owner again and he finally says he can't refund us the amount we decided on but could give us half of what we requested. He'd also refund us our credit card fee. When I asked if he had my card info, he said yes from our initial registration. Ironic that he now has my info but didn't when it came time to reach out to us initially. If you do utilize this company, hopefully everything goes smoothly so you don't have to deal with the owner to settle things. Good luck!

The food was amazing ( the Braised Short Rib sooo tender) and Billy, our server, was a pleasure…read more Highly recommend!

Finally made it to this well known establishment! Arrived without reservations and had an hour…read morewait, but we were ok with that as there are so many things to look at. Housed inside this venue is a gift shop with items made by the students here, a seating area to enjoy a coffee and snack or an ice cream from the insight ice cream counter! At the one end there is a museum to browse with many interesting articles to read and items to look at. So the wait went fast! Once called for our table we were greeted with the friendliest hostess and shown to our table. She handed each of us our menus and opened them for us. Our waitress, Abigail, was knowledgeable and provided details on the menu items we had questions about. The Fried Pork Belly starter was a table favorite! So tender and full of flavor. The Founders Burger was cooked perfectly and had an amazing brioche bun. Shrimp and Grits had okra in it if that's not your thing. Lastly, the Braised Short Rib served in mashed potato with asparagus. This was a huge portion and the short rib was so delicious. Our table did our ice cream for dessert and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend! We visit the area often and will definitely be back to try more of the menu items. It's a must if in the Branson area and well worth the wait. This restaurant is at College of the Ozarks and students work at this farm to table establishment as well as making items that are for sale in the shops. There is a candle and stained glass shop to drive too and other activities.

Our tour was called "Downtown-n-Underground" which is a better description than just "Haunted". It…read moretook about 75 minutes. We started at Basin Spring Park - right in the center of town with a history of how things started. Megan, our guide, then took us below ground to where buildings were centered prior to moving upward due to mudslides. For much of the rest of the tour, we traversed the main business street really from one end to the other (Spring St) with architectural history, stories about buildings, stories about the town at various points in time, and another spring at the far end. You finish about 3 blocks from where you start - a gradual uphill. Megan was great; didn't need a script; answered all questions and ensured everyone could see everything. Great intro to Eureka Springs. Interesting there were 10,000 people living here in the late 1800s, and now just over 2,000.

Definitely way more historical than haunted, but fun nonetheless. The promised catacombs are really…read morejust a short hallway/tunnel (you do get to walk through a hidden door in a wardrobe which I think makes the whole experience worthwhile), but it was a really interesting piece of history. Super fun to go to the headquarters and check out the haunted dolls and Knick knacks. I definitely learned a lot about the town and enjoyed the evening walk, even if I definitely didn't see any ghosts or feel scared. Our tour Roz (hopefully I'm spelling that right) was great, and she even demonstrated using a pendulum to communicate with spirits after the tour was finished. Highly recommend for people who enjoy spooky history but not necessarily being scared.
