Amarillo, TX

The biggest city in the panhandle, Amarillo is about merging history with the modern era. Surrounded by numerous sprawling ranches, the city gives you that authentically “western” feel. At the same time, the region is heavily invested in its art scene, and tourists here experience a decidedly eclectic vibe when making their way through the downtown area. Theater, live entertainment and local musicians help create a chic, cosmopolitan spirit within the city. Amarillo is also a great city for the outdoor lover to visit. Situated right next to Palo Duro Canyon—one of the country’s most scenic canyons—there is always plenty of biking, hiking and camping. The Palo Duro Canyon Park consists of more than 25,000 acres which are directly tied to the pioneering history of the area.

What an amazing tour. We saw whales, dolphins and porpoises. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic. We could really tell they are very respectful towards the animals, we were able to see two humpbacks for nearly half an hour, everybody was silent, the engine was off and the crew was also in awe. Only when the whales left, the engine was back on and we also started moving again. We really felt like we had all the time in the world and we didn't disturb the animals.
