Q&A

Q: Is this tour appropriate for kids? What's the age limit?

A: Yes, this tour is great for kids! There isn't a strict age limit, but it's best suited for ages 8 and up, especially since they’ll appreciate the landmarks and stories. Just keep in mind that it’s a small group, so you may want to book early if you're bringing a larger family. The sweet treat stop is always a hit with younger ones!

Q: What happens if it rains? Do they reschedule?

A: If it rains, the tour typically goes on, but if the weather is really bad, they’ll reschedule for you. Just make sure to check with the provider the day before if there’s a chance of storms. The guides are pretty flexible about finding a new date that works for everyone.

Q: Is parking easy near the starting point?

A: Parking can be tricky in downtown Austin, especially during busy times. There are some parking lots nearby, but they can be pricey. I recommend getting there early to find street parking, or using a rideshare service if you're comfortable with that. Just keep an eye on the time to make sure you don’t miss the start!

Had an amazing time on the Best of Austin Tour!

Just got back from the Best of Austin Small-Group Driving Tour, and wow, I loved it! We hit so many landmarks like the Texas State Capitol and some cool local spots I would’ve never found on my own. Our guide was super knowledgeable and funny, which made the whole experience even better. Plus, that sweet treat at the end was a delightful surprise! Definitely thinking about giving this as a gift to my parents next!

Thinking about gifting the small-group driving tour

Hey folks! I’m considering this small-group driving tour for my sister’s birthday. She loves Austin and always says she wants to explore more of the city. I saw that it’s two hours long, but how tiring is it? She’s not super fit, but loves to learn about local culture. Any thoughts?
