5.Austin Small Group Morning Walk

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 412 reviews · 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $32Top rated

Join a local guide such as Tyler, William, Audrey, or Jake for a 75 to 90 minute walk through downtown Austin. Start at Jo’s Coffee, visit the Driskill Hotel, Congress Avenue, 2nd Street, and Willie Nelson’s statue, then finish with practical tips on food, coffee, music, and sightseeing.

“The city is fairly flat, so easily accessible for all. Tyler was full of knowledge about the city’s history and was readily prepared to share photos of buildings from historical time periods so we could view and compare the “back then” to “today” which brought a great perspective to the development of the city. Tyler stuck around after the scheduled tour to be a resource to answer questions and share recommendations of delicious eats (like Terry Blacks BBQ, which was hands down THE BEST). Thanks Tyler for kicking off our Austin visit!”
