Austin's Best Speakeasies 3-Hour Guided Tour

This is our star tour, showing the very best speakeasy bars Austin has to offer—each with its own unique theme. We begin right at sunset at a hidden speakeasy disguised as a travel agency just outside downtown. This tiki-themed venue features vibrant, exotic décor, theatrical drinks, and unmatched creativity. From there, we head to a hidden luxury speakeasy tucked inside a casual Mexican restaurant, where the atmosphere and décor are breathtaking and the aesthetic alone is enough to consider this location one of Austin's best speakeasies! We then journey through the heart of downtown, sharing Austin’s rich history while passing landmarks such as the Texas State Capitol and the famously haunted Driskill Hotel. Then we slip into an exclusive speakeasy—accessible only by invitation—hidden in a back alley behind the Driskill. Intimate and luxurious, it serves some of the most unforgettable cocktails you’ll ever taste. This isn’t just a tour—it’s Austin’s ultimate speakeasy experience.

This is a private tubing experience for groups of 10-15 people. We are the only company that offers tubing in Downtown Austin. What sets our trip apart from competitors is we are going on the spring river created by Barton Springs pool. This means that you won't waste 4 hours on a bus and you can make the most of your time in Austin. Every minute of this tour you will be in the water, and when you get out, you'll be just a few minutes away from restaurants, bars, etc. Furthermore, you can choose to stay and linger in the area after the tour and continue the water fun unlike the competitors who will herd back onto a bus and make you sit through traffic for hours to get back to Austin. The float is slow. Highlights are watching the bridge jumpers and rope swingers and ending at Party Island.

What are people saying about Austin

YiJei_W, Aug 2026

Lovely experience!

We were asked to wear lifejackets, sounds normal, right? But we had seen other kayak agencies not requiring their guests to wear it but put it at the back of the kayak. My partner and I think if something really happens, you may not have time to react and grab the lifejackets. So we appreciated that our tour guide enforced the safety policy!

The captain for our tour...

The captain for our tour was super personable and did a great job. We had a few different groups on board, and he went out of his way to interact with each group and it really enhanced the experience. Overall, I really recommend this option to anyone looking for a relaxed trip on the lake.

Great introduction to Austin

Wonderful trip, we have lived in Austin for 50 years, celebrated our 44 anniversary with you. We have done Hop On Hop off in NYC in Vegas and Galveston. All very educational and informative. Your trip was the start of a great day. We were surprised at all the things we did not know.

Wonderful boat tour/ride...

Wonderful boat tour/ride up the CO River. Despite there being no sunset due to the cloud cover. It was still really wonderful boat tour! Travis was our guide and he was a really good driver/guide. It was well worth the money to do it for a full hour boat tour. Thanks for our boat was filled with pretty chill people otherwise I probably wouldn't have given it a five-star review.

Very nice boat cruise!

I enjoyed the experience. The boat captain was very prompt and met us at the docking point as outlined on the website. He safely operated the clean boat and even provided a brief narrative of some of the homes along the way. It was a really peaceful boat ride and neat to see all the lovely homes I can't afford. Lol. I would do it again, but next time book a sunset cruise for a different experience.

This was a great tour we...

This was a great tour we learned about the cultural roots of Austin. The tour took us throughout the city pointing out restaurants, dance venues, and businesses that makeup the culture in this city. We even went into the Capitol building, and we're shown the portraits of previous governors within the ratunda. David, our tour guide, did an excellent job.

Take. This. Tour.

Kelty was an amazing tour guide. Very informative of the local history and activities, and made the whole experience so much fun. Both vineyards were beautiful, and the wine tastings were wonderful. I think The Salt Lock served the best brisket I have ever had. Five stars, all around. Thank you!

Brady was our driver and went along with all the shenanigans happening in our group. We had a very fun group and he tolerated all of us very well.
