About the Plano Heritage Walk 🥾
Plano isn’t just shiny buildings and bustling shopping districts … it’s a city layered with history, resilience, and stories that deserve to be told. The Plano Heritage Walk takes you on a two-hour journey through time, blending comedy and history into one unforgettable experience.
Led by a professional performer with a knack for mixing laughter and learning, this guided walk uncovers the Texas tales you won’t find in textbooks. From the quiet headstones of Baccas Cemetery, where pioneers and early settlers still rest, to the art and landmarks that reveal Plano’s roots, you’ll see the city in a completely new light.
One of the highlights of the tour is the legacy of the Black cowboys who once rode the Shawnee Trail. Their contributions to frontier life are too often left out of the Western narrative, but here their stories come alive … full of grit, endurance, and pride.
This isn’t a dry lecture or a history class … it’s an interactive, story-driven experience where you’ll laugh, reflect, and leave with a deeper connection to the land beneath your feet. Plano’s past shaped its present, and this tour makes sure those voices are remembered.
