Many of those who move to East Texas recognize the strong place religion has in the lives of its residents. East Texas is multi-denominational with a multitude of traditionally Christian churches and schools, a local mosque, synagogue, and even groups that meet simply trying to understand their own beliefs. With so many choices to make as relocations occur, we desire to know more about what you are seeking and will provide information to help guide you.


East Texas is an extraordinarily generous region. Generations of East Texas families continue with their personal and professional legacies through support of hundreds of non-profits.

We will make leadership introductions that pave the way for you and your family to participate with organizations that not only fill your spirits, but help those in need. 

As a candidate for relocation to East Texas, it is important that the things that matter most in your life are known. This allows the team to design a tour that helps you envision your life on a day-to-day basis as you consider relocating. 

Relocation Tours are one or two days depending upon the client's needs and desires. In both cases, the tours are custom built to your personal interests and what is most important to you as you consider a move to East Texas.

If your perspective company is paying for the experience, they will have input into one to two destinations with which they want you to be familiar -- think of this as the organization showcasing to you what is important to them about the area.

If you are paying on your own, you will choose your areas of interest and prioritize them. A tour will be designed based upon your responses.

All tours are customizable. Some require an additional fee.

East Texas Relocation Tours serves all of Northeast Texas, with the home office in Tyler. (Tyler is considered the hub of the region with extensive retail, medical, educational, and professional services readily available.)

Looking at a map, we serve as far east as Marshall, south of Jacksonville, west to the Canton area, and north almost to Arkansas. These are the well known regional "markers", but we have flexibility to expand if this is something the client desires.

East Texas Tours understands that whether you are moving on your own or with a partner and family, not everyone is comfortable organizing utilities, meeting a moving truck, going to the DMV, or even getting a library card.

For an additional fee (depending upon scope of services needed), our team can be the conduit for your seamless transition into living in East Texas.

Relocation Tours bridge what a traditional Hiring Team and Realtor typically offer. As an out-of -area candidate, our clients are likely not familiar with the breadth and depth of all that East Texas offers. The hiring team is excited about you joining the office. The realty team is thrilled about helping you find a home. The relocation team fills the information gap about what it feels like, looks like, and if you like bakeries, smells like, to live here. Our talented guides will review the survey you have taken to build a tour that features the things that matter most to you and your family. One parent working and another staying home? What hobbies do you have? Where would you like to invest your time through volunteering? Do you need or want a leadership experience to match you with other community leaders?

Small children at home? What are some of the known and off-the-beaten-path activities that can fill your time with formative experiences? Our guides have this covered! 

East Texas Tours prides itself on professionalism. Meeting and exceeding the expectations of our clients are paramount to your successful and private experience.

The fee structure is built with several factors including transportation, venues, snacks, beverages, entrance fees, time committed, other experts who may be involved in making the experience memorable and compelling, etc.. 

Note: Gratuities are not included in the fees. If you have had an excellent experience, please consider showing your gratitude with a tip for the guide(s).
