Explore the Tastes of Texas

When folks think of Texas and food,

first thoughts might turn to chuck

wagons and chili on the open range.

And while we take immense pride in our

native cuisine, by no means does it begin

to cover the full extent of Metroplex

dining. The Irving area offers a wide

selection of ethnic dining, along with

theme restaurants that provide as much

show as they do dinner, and plenty

of places for hometown favorites and

comfort food in between.

Truly Texas

No matter what your vision of Texas is, you’ll find more than meets the eye

with this unique itinerary – from trail rides and cattle drives to Western art

and campfire cooking – it’s everything you want Texas to be! Our itineraries

are flexible and can easily be packaged to suit your particular needs,

interests or days of the week.

Day 1Your day starts at the spectacular

Mustangs of Las Colinas, the world’s

largest equestrian sculpture. After a

group picture in front of this majestic

backdrop, you’ll head to lunch at the Cellar

Restaurant and Bar on the Mandalay Canal.

Next, it’s time for a look at a different kind

of cowboy with a tour of AT&T Stadium,

home of the Dallas Cowboys. With seating

for 80,000, a retractable roof and a

construction cost of over $1 billion, this

incredible sports landmark is one of the

most expensive sports venues in the world!

There’ll also be plenty of time to shop the

largest selection of Cowboys memorabilia

at the Dallas Cowboys Pro Shop. Finish

the day with a serenade at sunset from

a singing cowboy as your group enjoys

hayrides, horseback riding and a campfire

cookout at Circle R Ranch.

Day 2Today starts with a hearty breakfast at

the Mama’s Daughters’ Diner, then into

downtown Dallas for a close-up look at

Texas history. The Sixth Floor Museum

offers the permanent educational exhibition

of the life, death and legacy of President

John F. Kennedy and features nearly 400

historic photographs and artifacts. En route

to the Perot Museum of Nature and Science,

there’s time for a quick photo opportunity

at Pioneer Plaza, a sculpture re-creation

of an Old West cattle drive. Shoppers will

enjoy the next stop at Neiman Marcus

flagship store. Dallas Heritage Village is

the next attraction, with 37 restored historic

homes, buildings and shops providing a

step back to the 19th century. Then it’s back

to your hotel for a break before heading out

to dinner at Cool River Cafe or The Ranch,

two of the area’s best places for local

flavor and live music!

Day 3Head west today for a mix of Texas fun in

Fort Worth! Enjoy breakfast in the unique

setting of the Fort Worth Zoo’s Texas Wild!

Exhibit. Then it’s off to the Amon Carter

Museum and the Sid Richardson Collection

of Western Art, to explore a different sort

of cowboy culture. Lunch at the legendary

Joe T. Garcia’s will give everyone a taste

of the spicy side of Texas. Then spend

the afternoon wandering the shops of

the Stockyards National Historic District,

before line-dancing lessons at Billy Bob’s.

Don’t forget to catch the daily cattle drive

to and from the Stockyards. Dinner will

be at the Cattlemen’s Restaurant, and

spend the evening afterwards exploring the

Stockyards nightlife, including a rodeo.

Day 4You might think only of Country and

Western music when you think of Texas,

but we’ve got a lot more too. And there’s

no better way to enjoy it than a brunch

at one of Irving’s premier hotels or

restaurants before you head home. If

your day allows more time, you might

consider a Winemaker’s Brunch at the

Delaney Vineyards, or spend the afternoon

shopping at the Texas-sized Grapevine

Mills Outlet Mall offering Texas-sized

values and more than 2 million square feet

of “shoppertainment!”

Shop ’til You Drop

We brag about how everything is bigger in Texas, but a shopping itinerary

through Dallas/Fort Worth really proves the point! Whether you prefer tracking

down bargains, reveling in haute couture or just shopping until you drop, Irving

makes it easy for you to do it all. We can also recommend local shopping

experts to serve as your tour guides, to give your groups a truly VIP experience.

Day 1We’ll start at the biggest of them all, giving

you all day to enjoy Grapevine Mills Outlet

of “shoppertainment,” your guests can

clearance center, outlets for Nine West,

Ann Taylor, Old Navy, Gap, Horchow and

more. Don’t miss LEGOLAND Discovery

can also get your Texas shopping fix at

places like Texas Treasures. Save some

time to include Bass Pro Shops Outdoor

Grapevine and Irving.

Day 2Now that you’re warmed up, it’s time to

take on Irving and North East Malls, with

anchors like Dillard’s, JCPenney, Macy’s,

paced boutique shopping. Then it’s

westward for a visit to Stockyards Station

arts and crafts.

Day 3Start the day at the spectacular Dallas

featuring Macy’s, Tiffany & Co., Kenneth

more high-fashion couture boutiques

to keep you in great style, head over to

Highland Park Village and the Crescent

Court Shops. Then break away to the value

side with a quick visit to the Sam Moon

Trading.

Day 4Today, you’ll start your shopping

exploration in the Deep Ellum Arts District

with its Greenwich Village ambiance. Then

Student Fun

Looking for ways to entertain students of all ages? Look no further than

Dallas/Fort Worth, and be sure to make Irving your “homeroom.” There are

theme parks and restaurants, zoos and sports, and even a little education

worked in. Spend a day or a week, or somewhere in between – whichever

best suits your students’ interests.

Day 1Your day starts at the spectacular


largest equestrian sculpture and a great

backdrop for a group picture. Stop in

next at the National Scouting Museum

for an up-close and hands-on look at

the incredible history of scouting. Spend

the rest of the day at Grapevine Mills, the

which features fun venues such as

Legoland Discovery Center and SEA

LIFE Aquarium. Afterwards, grab dinner

at places like Rainforest Cafe and Uncle

Buck’s Steakhouse.

Day 2The day starts at the Palace of Wax/

Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!, with over 225

lifelike figures from Hollywood, history,

Day 3Head west this morning and start your day

with breakfast and tour at the Fort Worth

for a peek at a mural of the Chisholm Trail

and backstage at the Bass Performance

Hall. The Cultural District is next, with stops

at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and

History and the Omni Theater. Nighttime is

capped off by a visit to Pawnee Bill’s Wild

West Show at Cowtown Coliseum.

Day 4History and pop culture meet today, as you

start with a tour of Dallas, including a visit

to Pioneer Plaza’s cattle drive sculpture,

Old City Park’s recreated village and

renowned Dealey Plaza. After a tour at the

Sixth Floor Museum, located in the former

Texas School Book Depository Building,

you’ll move on to lunch at the Hard Rock

Cafe. It’s fun and games for the afternoon

with either thrills at SpeedZone Dallas,

chills at Six Flags over Texas or fun in the

sun at Hurricane Harbor. Then a step back

in time for a dinner of jousting and jesting

at Medieval Times.

Day 5If your next stop after Dallas and Fort

Worth takes you south on I-35, you’ll want

to make time for at least a 3-hour stop at

the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Glen Rose,

a 1,500-acre wildlife sanctuary featuring

more than 60 species. While you’re in

the neighborhood, don’t miss out on the

Dinosaur Valley State Park, where dinosaur

tracks aging nearly 100 million years have

been discovered.
