  1. I booked a 2 hour Austin public tour on 3/23/17. I was part of a group of 11 people and had Sunny as our tour guide. He was on time in picking us up at the Austin Visitor Center. He was very engaging during the tour, full of energy, answered our questions, and gave good recommendations (I asked for coffee, donut and jazz bars). It was nice to see parts of Austin you won’t normally see during a “traditional” tour. When I go back to Austin, I plan to go on the Hill Country BBQ and winery tour.

  3. Every visitor to Austin should start out going on this tour.  I like to research an area before I travel there, but this tour gave me an insight into this “blueberry in tomato soup” town that only a local could give.  And Joe’s enthusiasm and recall of interesting factoids was impressive.  The day after the tour, I went back to several of the sites Joe pointed out including the underground offices of the State Capitol building, UT, Waterloo records, Whole Foods headquarters and SoCo.  I wish I had time to eat at the “haunted” Driskill!  The level of personalization with a small group (9 people) and great tour guide make this a must do.

  4. Sonny, Bobbi, Elisa, Mark and everyone at Austin Detours created a fantastic experience for our group. We had 16 people and every single person had a great time. The challenges were really creative, everyone was super friendly, and it’s evident a lot of thought and planning went into the tour. We had 3 stops/challenges and our competitive  crew loved the mix of learning about Austin while have some interactive fun. As the planner for our group for our weekend in Austin, I couldn’t be happier with the experience they created for us. I highly recommend Austin Detours!!!

  5. I was in San Antonio for a work meeting so I decided to drive to Austin. After this experience, I don’t think I’ll ever go to another city without taking a tour. What would’ve taken me days to learn on my own, I learned in only a few hours. By the time the tour was over we all felt like one big family! Definitely the best thing I did in Austin.

  6. Kurt is da bomb. Found Austin detours online, got a private city tour for a bachelorette. Lily drive me through the entire process online, our pick and drop off was at our house location. Kurt was so friendly, nice and informative. He took us through the tour and we had such an amazing time! He knows so much about the city and the best spots for photos! He even gave us recommendations for dinner after the tour and the best stories about the city. Would recommend the tour and Kurt to anyone! It is BYOB inside the car and the car is equipped with bottles of water. Totally worth the time and money!

  7. Our team went to Austin for our offsite and we did a two hour private city tour as our team-bonding activity. Jason picked us up in a van from our office and drove us all over town. I was impressed by his ability to multi-task so effectively. We saw a lot in a two hour period.

    I wasn’t a huge fan of the puzzles and activities but the rest of my team really got into it. The competitive aspect was cool but I think the point values need to be re-evaluated. I didn’t like how half of the points were derived from tossing a football back and forth in front of The Capitol. In the end, my team did not win but he had some prizes for the winners.

    It’s a fun tour to take if you’re short on time and want to see a lot. I’d personally rather roam around the city myself.

  8. I am in Austin for a conference and brought my mother so that she could sightsee while I was working.   She signed up for the two hour city tour and was the only one booked on a Monday.   Lucky her because she had a private tour with Steven and it was the highlight of her week in Texas!!!

    He drove her to all of the sights and knew all of the historical and entertaining facts.  She enjoyed the state capital, Governors Mansion, local neighborhoods and tales.  The next day I had arranged a trip and tour of San Antonio for her but she returned disappointed that nothing there was as good as the tour she had with Steven!

    I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone and I appreciate knowing that they rake of you like visiting family.

  9. Booked the tour with a bunch of other friends and we almost filled the tour to capacity. We had Elisa for our tour and she was very delightful and knowledgeable. I did like how the tour was in a van as it was freezing the day that we went so we were nice and sheltered. The van also had a cooler of mini water bottles in case you get thirsty throughout the tour.

    Went to a lot of places that had photo ops and we had sufficient time for each stop. At the very end we got a postcard (woohoo). Stopped by the capitol building, graffiti park, (which we ended up going back to later because it was so cool!), the postcard mural and a few other places. Super helpful just to get some base knowledge of Austin because we then ended up going to the whole foods for dinner haha.

  10. My girls and I booked a private Austin tour for 7 and it was amazing.

    Kurt, our tour guide, texted me when he was on his way and arrived promptly. He had water for us in the van and that was cool.

    Kurt took us around various spots and gave us tips on places to go for food and partying.

    He added the right amount of historical information and humor to the tour.

    We did the 10:30-12pm tour and it was the right amount of time. He was also super nice about taking picture of us.

    Overall, great tour!

    I highly recommend!
