Plesant Surprise - We booked our tour last night. Local tour operator Tripshepherd confirmed with us on the pick up location minutes after the booking. We met up with our local guide Owen this morning. Owen was very knowledgeable, patient and detailed. We really enjoyed our tour from the State Capitol to Mozart's Coffee Roasters to Mayfield Park and Nature Preserve to Mt Bonnell. Highly recommend it!!

The best of Austin - Owen was an excellent guide, with insightful and informative knowledge of Austin and the surrounding area. He took us to interesting areas with great photo opportunities. The state capitol is truly worth the visit, made even more so by Owen’s knowledge of the history of both Austin and Texas.
Thoroughly recommend this tour to get a good insight into Austin whilst still ‘keeping it weird!’

Disappointed - Canceled in the last min. Very disappointed and did not even receive an apology considering we had booked weeks in advanced.
