September tour
It involves a couple miles of walking. Mostly flat but some people struggled with the hills and the heat. Will was a great tour guide who really seemed to enjoy the history and telling the story of the serial killer.

Beskrivning
Framröstad av Austin Chronicle 2022 Critic's Choice "Bästa nattlivsaktivitet." År 1885 förföljde USA:s första seriemördare gatorna och gränderna i den unga, framväxande staden Austin. Mer skrämmande än någon spökhistoria, detta monster hackade brutalt och systematiskt åtta kvinnor till döds med hjälp av en yxa. Under ett kalenderår skrämde han en stad och blev känd som "midnattsmördaren". Han tillfångatogs aldrig och hans identitet förblir ett mysterium eller gör det...? Denna turné är vår längsta på 1 timme och 45 minuter och täcker 2 miles av historiska Austin inklusive West 6th street, Guy Town, Warehouse District och ett drinkstopp på det ikoniska Driskill Hotel. Tempot är lugnt och förutom ett drinkstopp vid Driskill, (dryck ingår ej), finns det korta vilor längs resan. Följ med oss på denna exceptionella vandringstur med sanna brott som undersöker exakta brottsplatser och de olika teorierna kring midnattsmördaren. Det är en "killer" turné.

Resplan
The Driskill
Våra expertguider kommer att förklara i detalj hur det ikoniska Driskill Hotel passar in i historien om "Servant Girl Annihilator". Byggt under själva morden, 1885, kommer du att kunna besöka lobbyn på detta magnifika hotell och se det imponerande porträttet av dess skapare, överste William "Jessie" Driskill. (Detta stopp är föremål för Driskills regler och öppettider och är tillgängligt de flesta, men inte varje kväll. Alla turer kommer dock att se detta vackra hotell på nära håll och lära sig om dess historia.)
6th Street
Våra expertberättare av sanna brott kommer att eskortera din grupp genom delar av det historiska distriktet 6th street i centrala Austin. Se 6th street komma till liv när du tittar på gamla fotografier av hur gatan såg ut under tiden för morden 1885.
Speakeasy
Speakeasy Tavern på 412 Congress Avenue är ett avgörande stopp för att förstå en av de möjliga misstänkta för morden på tjänsteflickan. Våra expertguider kommer att eskortera dig in och förklara hur den här platsen vävs in i väven av detta sanna brottsmysterium. När du är på Speakeasy har du möjlighet att ta en drink från baren och njuta av tavernans historia. (Drycker ingår ej)

Very interesting history. Had no prior knowledge of this topic. Great way to see a very vibrant area of Austin as well. Wes was a great tour guide!

Never again
Very Unorganized with meet up points
Operatörens svar
We’re sorry you missed your tour. Your guide and the other guests were at the designated departure point and waited for you before beginning the tour. Unfortunately, we couldn’t continue holding the entire group and delay the experience for the guests who had arrived at the correct location. Once the tour departed, your guide went the extra mile and sent you a location pin so you could catch up with the group, and then waited for you again. We’re sorry there was confusion regarding the meeting point. We always want every guest to make their tour, which is why your guide made multiple efforts to help you join the group. Best regards, Walking Tours of Austin

Interesting and Fun!
This was such an interesting experience! Will, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Austin and the murders that took place in the 1880s. The walk was long but not bad at all. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes!
Operatörens svar

Do it
It was a fun, unique experience, and we learned a lot of Austin history and fun facts about Texas while walking to the sites of these horrible murders. It's not quite as morbid as it sounds, but it's not for the young or the sensitive because the crimes were really terrible. Our guide was Will, and he was great!
