Interesting day trip to San Antonio
You only need a day to see the highlights of San Antonio, and if visiting Austin, this day trip is a good way to do so. We happened to have rainy, miserable weather, however Alex made the most of the tour. He provided interesting commentary during the drive to San Antonio, and he took us on a tour of the San Jose mission that was informative and interesting. He was unable to take us inside the Alamo but provided the history before we went in. The Alamo itself is underwhelming, but I was already expecting this. We then walked along the riverfront. The boat ride was cancelled because of the rain which also meant that there were barely any other people along the riverfront, but we could imagine how bright and lively it would be on a sunny afternoon. We ended at the Tower of the Americas where Alex pointed out the highlights of the city view. We were back in Austin around 2 pm (much earlier than I had expected) so we still had the afternoon free. My only complaint (besides the bad weather which cannot be blamed on the tour company or the guide) is that it started much earlier than necessary (7 am). We did the tour on a Sunday, and since there was no traffic, the drive was less than 2 hours including a stop at Buckee’s to pick up breakfast. This tour could have easily started at 8:00 or 9:00.

Amusing informative trip through Austin history
This tour gave us a view of the Austin of the past and of the present. our tour guide,David, was informative, engaging , and accommodating. He showed us the highlights of downtown Austin, providing amusing stories of the people and places. He also gave recommendations for music, food, and other entertainment venues. Well worth our time and money!

Well Worth Our Time!
We had a nice tour with Jacob. It was a rainy afternoon, so not a great sunset but the boat ride and the views along Lake Austin were totally worth seeing. There sure are some gorgeous homes to be admired!
If I could change something about the tour it would be to have some narration as we were not from the area and like to learn.

Rob was an amazing tour...
Rob was an amazing tour guide. The route is very easy to follow along and he will show and give you an insider's history of the city and big landmarks. If you're worried about riding in the city. Rob is great at directing you where to ride. We ended up having a personal tour of the city. It was a little hard to get to the shop due to having booked during the ACL Festival. But a LYFT solved that issue. I highly recommend this tour.

Great Austin sightseeing tour!!
Evan was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and asked each person what they wanted to see and learn about Austin. After self-introductions the group loaded into a very comfortable air conditioned van for the two hour tour. The stop at the Capitol at the halfway point afforded a restroom break. Very informative—highly recommend! Evan answered every question! Note that you check in at the desk in the visitor center.

Great tour
Choosing to go on e-bikes was a good idea, it was a hot day and not pedaling excessively made all the difference. The guide, Rooster, set a great mood from the beginning and kept going all the way through. Great ride through the city with highlights and multiple stops. We had a good time and would recommend.

Austin Double Decker Tour Was Great
This is a great tour that provides a nice history of Austin. Our tour guide had a lot of knowledge to share and had a super personality. The tour hits all the main attractions and provides several places for that are the spots to hit. Although it was quite hot, the your on the upper deck of the bus was the way to go. The views were superb fron the top deck. Be sure to pay attention because there are a few tree branches that you will need to duck under. Overall a great tour and highly recommend for an hour and a half trip that gives any first timer to Austin a perfect start to your adventure.

A Tour That Won't Disappoint
This tour was amazing. Joel did a wonderful job giving the group local facts. He was very engaging and even remeber everyone's name and where we all were from! He was personable and made everyone feel welcomed!
Hill Country did not disappoint. Each vineyard had breathtaking views and wonderful areas to take memorable photos. Would definitely visit again!

Boat Trip fantastic
You need to pay $5 cash each to the people at the entrance to the boarding deck of your boat. The staff on today was very rude we only had a little cash or card was told this was not acceptable even though we had paid for the trip online. Nothing to do with the organisers or the trip. They were great.

Great Wine and BBQ tour in the Hill Country
We had a small group tour starting in Austin driving out to the Hill Country. We had never been outside Austin and wasn't aware that there was a wine country region (Texas Hill Country) near Ausitn about an hour away.
Frist stop was the eat lunch at the Salt Lick BBQ restaurant in Driftwood. BBQ was amazing where you'd want The Thurman's Choice plate of brisket (best in the world), Pork Ribs and Sausage or splurge for a Family Style (everything) with all sides being delicious. If you want wine with your meal then walk back to the Salt Lick Cellars (tasting room with souvenirs) building behind the restaurant. We ordered the Salt Lick BBQ Red wine since it sounded like it should be with a BBQ plate (very tasty). We also bought some flavored olive oils that were awesome.
We crossed the street to the Fall creek Vineyards. A high-end small winery (low production) with nice wines but a little pricy for the value of the wine they produce (closer to Napa prices). Then drove to Duchman Family Winery that is a large scale winery with high production yields, large selections of various wines and rental facilities for events. The wines are very affordable for the quality of wines they produce. We were surprised that we enjoyed many of the wines since we tasted all of the ones they had opened, We then joined their wine club to have a case of wine shipped to Georgia a few times a year (cost per bottle with shipping fee was way below local wine store prices of comparable wines so that was a no brainer decision).
That was the tour so if you love great Texas BBQ and wine the this is your tour. And think about joining a wine club if you can since it helps local family owned wineries to stay in business and also provides you with interesting/hard to obtain wines to share with your friends (or not).

Experiences worth trying
It was so enjoyable! He had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgeable regarding the history surrounding the area! As an added bonus he helped keep my young kids entertained. This trip/adventure was worth every cent! I would recommend this trip for everyone 😊

Austin Food Tour
We had an awesome afternoon in Austin thanks to our fantastic tour guide! Khy was incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history, culture, and food scene, and shared so many interesting stories along the way. The variety of food samples was excellent—each stop offered something unique and delicious, giving us a great taste of what Austin has to offer. Everything was well organized, relaxed, and really fun. It was the perfect way to spend an afternoon exploring the city, learning new things, and enjoying amazing food. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Austin!

Austin tours allow you to explore all the wild, wonderful, and delicious aspects of a city that has staked its reputation on live music and incredible barbecue with a side of strange. There are several fun and active ways to explore the capitol—Segway, bike, double-decker bus, or even a BYOB boat tour, timed to see the famed Congress Avenue Bridge bats. And if you can’t BYO, opt for a day trip to Texas wine country. No matter what you choose, just remember to keep it weird.
