Austin's Afternoon Stroll
Descripción
Este tour para grupos pequeños es muy parecido a nuestro galardonado "Austin Small Group Morning Walk", ¡pero tal vez incluso mejor! Al igual que el paseo por la mañana, cubrimos los favoritos imprescindibles de Austin como el interior del Hotel Driskill. Sin embargo, la caminata de la tarde es un poco más larga a las 2 horas y tiene ventajas como: visitar la tienda de historia / vodka de Tito en Lavaca Street, pasear por las orillas del sendero del lago Ladybird y descubrir la belleza del emblemático distrito de Rainey Street. ¡Incluso te daremos tiempo para explorar! Este tour te da la experiencia de cómo elegiríamos pasar el día como personas que conocen y aman la ciudad. En resumen, ¡tendrás excelentes recomendaciones!

Itinerario
Su recorrido llega y sale de Love, Tito's en la histórica Lavaca St., en el centro de Austin. ¡Esta pintoresca tienda minorista es el único punto de venta minorista del único Tito's Vodka de Austin! Ahora, una sensación mundial, Tito comenzó aquí en el área de Austin. Los serviciales y amigables empleados de Love, Tito's están felices de compartir tanto el éxito como las profundas raíces de la historia de Tito. Con apertura a las 11:00 a. m., ¡este es el lugar perfecto para comenzar nuestra aventura en Austin! Lo siento, no hay muestras gratis de Tito :)
De pie con orgullo frente al Teatro Moody, la estatua de Willie es una representación icónica de por qué Austin es conocida como la "Capital de la música en vivo de Estados Unidos". Además de la estatua, hay un mapa de bronce fundido en esta intersección que muestra detalles del "viejo Austin" y los cuerpos de agua circundantes. ¡Una oportunidad perfecta para darle a nuestro recorrido el contexto histórico correcto!
Su caminata privada por Austin lo lleva a lo largo de una sección escénica de la ruta de senderismo Lady Bird Lake. A solo un corto y hermoso paseo desde el puente de Congress Ave. (también conocido como Bat Bridge), hasta el histórico distrito de Rainey St. A lo largo de su caminata, su guía le informará sobre todo, desde detalles de los famosos murciélagos de Austin hasta la historia de las barcazas y transbordadores de Austin antes de la era de los puentes de hierro. Esta es una maravillosa adición sombreada a su recorrido con vistas espectaculares del horizonte de la ciudad y, por supuesto, del lago Lady Bird. :-)
¡Rainey Street District es uno de los secretos mejor guardados de Austin! Es una combinación ecléctica de nuevos y altísimos condominios y encantadoras cabañas y bungalows. Estas pequeñas viviendas pintorescas solían ser casas privadas en Austin, pero ahora sirven como algunos de los mejores, y ciertamente más divertidos, restaurantes y cervecerías de la ciudad. Mientras se encuentre en el distrito de Rainey, podrá tomar una bebida o disfrutar de una excelente comida en un camión de comida en "Stay Put Brewery". ¡Esta es una cervecería galardonada con acceso cercano a algunos de los mejores camiones de comida de la ciudad!
La casa del gran autor estadounidense, William Sydney Porter, también conocido como O'Henry, está ubicada cerca del corazón del centro de la ciudad y es una breve parada para reconocer la historia de O'Henry y su vida aquí en Austin en la década de 1880.
Junto a la casa de O' Henry se encuentra la antigua casa de nuestra heroína local, Susanna Dickinson, la única superviviente del Álamo (1836). En este lugar, contamos la valentía de Susanna que no solo sobrevivió al Álamo, ¡sino que también logró salvar a su hija Angelina!
¡En su aventura a pie por el centro de Austin, experimentará dos cuadras de la mundialmente famosa "Dirty 6th Street"! Casi todos los escaparates de East 6th datan de las décadas de 1870 y 1880. ¡Nuestros guías informados se asegurarán de señalar los mejores lugares para comer y, por supuesto, música en vivo!
El Driskill es un magnífico ejemplo de la edad dorada en Austin. Este hermoso e histórico hotel se ha mantenido con orgullo en el borde de East 6th desde su finalización en 1886. Después de un recorrido por el vestíbulo del hotel, los huéspedes que así lo deseen pueden comprar una bebida en el bar y parrilla Driskill. ¡Una manera perfecta de terminar tu paseo privado por la ciudad capital!

It was a great activity to do the day you fly in to get familiar with the area and stretch your legs. Tyler our guide was great and knowledgeable! I would recommend:)
Thank you so much for your review, Tammy! We’re glad you enjoyed starting your trip with us and had a chance to stretch your legs while exploring the area. Tyler is thrilled to hear your kind words! We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on a future visit. Best regards, Walking Tours of Austin
They did not show up! Or reply to attempts to contact them. Terrible experience for my family from Boston.
We are truly sorry for the frustration this caused your family’s visit. We apologize again for the scheduling oversight — this is not the experience we want for any of our guests. As soon as we were made aware of the situation, we reached out immediately and processed a full refund. We understand how disappointing this was, especially during a trip, and we appreciate your patience and understanding. Warm regards, Walking Tours of Austin
We had a great time on this tour with Tyler as our tour guide. He was very informative and had some great tips. Highly recommend him!!! Thanks Tyler
Thank you so much! We’re thrilled you enjoyed Afternoon Walk Austin with Tyler and appreciated his tips and insights. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him! Best regards, Walking Tours of Austin
Tyler was a great guide - informative, but in an approachable manner for teens and adults alike. We saw a good selection of Austin sights - both old and new and finished a lot more knowledgeable than we started. I would recommend.
Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear that Tyler struck the perfect balance—informative and approachable for all ages. It's wonderful that you walked away with a deeper appreciation for both Austin's history and its modern-day charm. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you on another walk soon! Warm regards, Walking Tours of Austin
Possibly one of the best tours I've been on in years. Tyler is a fantastic storyteller, giving a thorough deep-dive into the history of Austin. A lengthy, walking tour, but totally worth learning about the history of the city, while touring locations throughout the city. Meet-up point was easy to get to, there's a parking garage located next door, as well as a Starbucks on the corner across from Love, Tito's. There's food and drink options along the way, very cool way to experience a snapshot into Austin's downtown. Tour is safe, travel in an intimate group, and gave me a look into the city that exceeded my expectations. I definitely would love to come back and spend more time, but only had this 1 day to enjoy the city. p.s. bring water and wear comfortable walking shoes!
Thank you so much for your review! We love the passion that Tyler brings to each and every tour. We’re so glad you were able to join us and catch a behind-the-scenes. Look at Austin‘s history and some of our lesser known gems! Please come back and see us again soon! Best regards, Walking Tours of Austin
Two years ago we participated in a food and tour event in Mobile Alabama. That was a tour that included in the cost samples from a number of different restaurants in downtown Mobile We thought this was going to be a similar experience but it was different which was disappointing Perhaps we missed that when we read the material. Tyler did a good job showing us around downtown Austin
Thanks so much for your review! Yes, the “Downtown Austin Walk” is both described and designed to be an experience showing great lesser known spots to drink and eat and then pausing at those spots for any guests that wants to enjoy. We to tell the story of Austin and point out our favorite haunts . Where you enjoy is up to you :-) thanks again!
Great tour, enjoyed hearing the history of the city. Our guide did a good job. He spoke well and was easy to understand. Highly recommend.
We’re so glad you enjoyed your downtown private walk! This is one of our most popular tours, as we have an opportunity to not only to the history of this great city, but point out our favorite haunts to eat and drink. Where the guests stop is up to them :-) Best regards, Walking Tours of Austin
Our guide was full of historical knowledge which helped make the tour very enjoyable. Walking through the old neighborhoods and seeing the new skyscrapers in the background was a sight to see! Austin is a nice city to visit.
We are thrilled you enjoyed your downtown Austin walk! This is one of our most sought after tours, and one of the most fun! Thanks again :-) Best regards, WTA
Great tour of austin and our guide Tyler was exceptional!! Our family from out of town learned so much about austin. We will be back to do again with future company in town. There is no other place like austin and this tour made us appreciate the city even more.
Hi, Mike! We are so glad you enjoyed your tour with Tyler. He absolutely loves Austin and it is so obvious as he introduces guests to the great city! We are so glad you will be joining us again with future guests. Look forward to seeing you again soon! Best Regards, Walking Tours of Austin
My teenage son and I were the only ones on our afternoon walking tour with Tyler. He was friendly, knowledgeable, takes pride in Austin, and paced the tour just right for us. Our fave parts were the walk along the water (even though there was a lot of noisy construction all around), stepping into the historic Driscoll Hotel, and the most delicious hidden taco restaurant we would have never stumbled upon without Tyler (Taqueria de Diez). He answered all our questions, had some good stories, and made sure there wasn’t anything we still wanted to know about before the tour ended. We asked for an ice cream shop recommendation and he suggested Amy’s Ice Creams (where my son and I walked after our tour and it was another superb place!) Thank you, Tyler for an awesome Austin tour.
We’re so glad you got a private tour experience with Tyler! He’s a fantastic Tour Guide, and really knows his stuff when it comes to the history of Austin :-) we so appreciate you taking the time to leave a detailed review and we hope you can come back and see us again in the future! I will pass on your kind words to Tyler :-) Warm regards, Jim Miles, Owner Walking Tours of Austin
