Fun, fashion entertainment, fabulous food, history, outdoor activities. There are so many amazing and fun things to do in Dallas. Here are 25 must-see activities when your travels bring you to Dallas!
- Shop at the original Neiman Marcus, just to say you did.
- Lions & Tigers & Bears, oh my…Go Ape at the Dallas Zoo.
- A little piece of Europe in Big D….West Village is home to many upscale boutiques, fine wines and heavenly dining. Experience Cru Wine Bar for a lovely glass of wine or pick up a rare find at Cowboy Cool.
- Hike, canoe, learn how to identify wildflowers or take a hayride and feed the bison. It’s not that far, but it feels like a world away the Fort Worth Nature Center.
- Lace up your skates and get your hockey stick ready – the puck is ready to drop at the Dr. Pepper Stars Center.
- Go west to the Fort Worth Stockyards …only Fort Worth has Old West stockyards and the world-renowned Billy Bob’s Texas: The World’s Largest Honky Tonk.
- All Aboard! …go back in time while taking a ride on the Grapevine Tarantula Train as it’s chug-chugging along the Chisholm Trail.
- Play a round of golf where the pro’s play…Tour 18 has a tee time waiting just for you.
- Dallas is the city of fine dining – Abacus, Papas Bros. Steakhouse, Truluck’s Stonecrab, Hibiscus, Trevi’s, Bob's Steak & Chop House and of course, Dover’s Grille.
- Take me out to the ballgame…buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks, as long as the Rangers are winning I’ll always come back.
- Kick your heels up at the Mesquite Championship Rodeo …Yee Haw!
- Round up the horses on your very own trail ride at the Circle R Ranch.
- Bring home the tastes of North Texas from the Dallas Farmer’s Market.
- Create a memory with that special someone as you glide silently on a gondola on Lake Carolyn.
- You don’t have to be in Kentucky to see great horse racing…Lone Star Park has some of the best.
- Don’t let the “big one” get away…. catch your own fish story at the Bass Pro Shop.
- The world’s only daily cattle drive takes place twice a day, every day (subject to weather and the Longhorns’ dispositions). Watch as the trail boss and his cowhands on horseback lead Texas longhorns down Exchange Avenue.
- It's summer. It's hot and it’s time to get cool in the pool, or maybe at a water park, for the more adventurous. Splash down at Hurricane Harbor or NRH2O … and be prepared to get wet and have fun.

- Who shot JR? Pull out your boots and your 10-gallon hat and take a tour of the famous Southfork Ranch. Get lost in the memories of JR, Sue Ellen, Bobby, Ms. Ellie and the whole Ewing clan.
- "Have wheels, will fly" should be the slogan at GPX, this newly opened attraction at Lone Star Park. Skateboarders, in-line skaters and bikers can sail off ramps, pyramids and quarter-pipes at this $1.2 million outdoor park that stretches across four acres.
