Austin Private Tours |

Have you ever seen cars with Texas license plates and bumper stickers wanting to "Keep Austin weird"? This is a reference to the quirky, eccentric, creative and authentic vibe unique to the Texas capital. Founded on the bend in the Colorado River in 1839 and home to the long-standing University of Texas, Austin is full of friendly and fun-loving locals. Meet one of them on a private Austin tour, and spend a day or night seeing the city's sights.
Austin is full of interesting museums featuring everything from Mexican Art to America's 36th president, LBJ. Don't miss the stunning pink granite State Capitol building, built in 1888. And speaking of "weird" - what other American city houses a large bat colony under a city centre bridge? It's a long-standing local tradition to sit on the grassy banks and watch the bats fly out each evening.
Your guide will be happy to recommend a great venue to experience Austin's legendary live music scene once your private Austin tour is done. |
