The Texas White House at the LBJ ranch
It’s the place known as the “Texas White House,” and the house on LBJ’s ranch is indeed white. But there is way more than just the house to see on this tour where you’ll learn a lot about our 36th president. You get to drive the grounds, complete with CD featuring narration and musical accompaniment. There are also some really cool cars and an airplane!
