   The Pioneer Experience Tour is a first-person experience tour which provides a look at emigration to Texas through the eyes of the Peters� Colony Land Agents. The agents were prone to much exaggeration about the bounties of Texas life when selling land was the goal.

Mr. Hedgcoxe lauds the virtues of Peter's Colony Lands to potential immigrants. 

  Guests play the role of potential emigrants during the 1-hour tour which features encounters with the inhabitants of the town.  A stroll down the brick lined Main Street will pass the bank, which has on occasion been robbed. Then the potential emigrants will visit the large Kennedy Farmstead, where they can have an up close look at life on the prairie from Mrs. Kennedy and her cousin Erastus Rausch, including stories of nearby Indian raids.

The experience ends at Millermore where they have lunch on the
back lawn and hear stories and gossip about the town.

The Ladies engage in a 'little information' sharing while Mr. Rausch listens in.

Prior to or just after the experience portion of the tour, the group will tour the Victorian side of the village, giving time for questions and information outside the first person venue in a guided tour format. 

The tour guests receive a flyer with information from the Texas Land and Emigration
Company and a souvenir bandanna to keep.
