Q&A

Q: Can you reschedule this tour if the weather is bad on the day I want to use it?

A: Good news! Since this is a self-guided tour, you can use it anytime. If you find that the weather isn't cooperating, you can just wait for a better day. There's no expiration on the tour after you purchase it, so feel free to pick a sunny day later.

Q: What should we wear for the walking part of the tour? Is it hard to walk?

A: Great question! The walking part is just a short quarter-mile, so casual wear is totally fine. I’d recommend comfortable shoes though since you'll be exploring downtown, and Austin's streets can be uneven in places. Dress for the weather, since you'll be outside for a bit!

Q: Is this tour suitable for kids? What age do you think it’s good for?

A: Absolutely! The tour is perfect for families. Kids can learn a lot from the stories, and it’s flexible enough that you can stop whenever they need a break. I took my 8 and 10-year-olds, and they loved it! Just make sure they’re up for a little walking.

Just did the Austin self-guided tour and it was a blast!

I recently bought the self-guided driving & walking tour for my family, and we had such a good time! Starting at Mount Bonnell was gorgeous, and the audio guide had tons of cool stories about the city. We took our time, popped into some food trucks in downtown, and the kids loved the fun facts. It felt super personal and relaxed, rather than a stiff guided tour. Totally recommend it!

Thinking about this tour as a gift for my parents!

I'm considering getting the self-guided tour for my parents' anniversary. They love exploring new places, and Austin has such a vibrant scene. I just want to make sure it's engaging enough for them since they're in their 60s. Anyone think this would be suitable?
