Guide knows the black...

Barbara_H, Feb 2026

Guide knows the black history of not just Austin but Texas in general. I learned so much about the accomplishments of Black people today and in the past. The guide was patient because I asked so many questions and answered each with a smile.

Rich history on this tour!

Pam_G, Feb 2026

I had the best time on my tour! Donovan was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had a blast! The tour expanded my understanding of the history of Black Austinites and communities that were established in the late 1800's and early 1900's. I also learned the names of key Austinites who established schools, businesses and churches. There is so much rich history that we need to learn. It is a worthwhile tour!
