If you like music, you'll love this - Kyle was an awesome guide for this 90 minute walking tour around Austin.
He had lots of really great knowledge and stories, as well as suggestions for what to do on the rest of my trip; tailored to the type of music I like. Because it's private, you are able to ask lots of questions as well.
Would recommend!

Austin is a fun town :) - Fun, laid back tour with Austin local who was very knowledgeable about the music scene and made lots of recommendations as to where I could see some shows all weekend. We took plenty of stops as needed, there are lots of cute places to pick up snacks/coffee/souvenirs if desired.
