The weather was great, just enough sun to enjoy the top deck.which is where i suggest you sit. The guide, Jason was funny and knowledgeable. With enough plugs on places to go for a night out or to eat.

The double decker bus tour is a must on your vacation to Austin! We learned so much about the history of the city. Wish we could have booked it earlier in the week as we did it on our last day. So glad we were able to take it though!
