What To Expect

Bull Creek District Park

One of the things that made Austin a prime candidate to become the capital of Texas was its place along the Colorado River. This allowed lush greenery to bloom in an otherwise harsh and challenging environment, and the park up ahead showcases exactly that. Note: This 19+ mile-long tour covers the essentials of Austin in 2-3 hours. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.

Wild Basin Preserve

This is Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve, home to over 200 acres of preserved wilderness and three miles of hiking trails. The preserve requires a small fee on weekends and holidays, but is free and totally open during weekdays.

Zilker Botanical Garden

Just ahead is the Zilker Botanical Garden, featuring 28 acres of local and exotic flora. Here you can see native succulents, prehistoric plants, and even a Japanese garden!

Complete waste of our time and resource$, app would not load in an area with ample connectivity and on a new android... portions of audio, parts of a sentence, would come on randomly.

I'm a bit puzzled by your review – on the one hand, it sounds like the app wouldn't load, but portions of audio came through. A little clarity would help me assist you better. Regardless, I'm here to help sort things out. The product's always there for you, so feel free to dive into the stories at home or explore another one from our extensive collection. And if things aren't clicking, reach out, and we'll discuss an exchange or refund. Cheers to smooth travels next time!

The guide gives good driving directions. The I formation is interesting, but is stuff that can be found on Wikipedia. The downtown portion must be done while walking which was not advertised. We chose this “tour” because it was a rainy day. So had to skip what was probably the most interesting part of the “tour.” Admission to the botanical gardens is $8 per person. And the tour route cannot be accessed after leaving their parking lot without driving about half a mile to make a u-turn. The gardens probably would have been worth it had it not been pouring rain.

I appreciate the feedback! While some info might be available widely, we do put a spin on things with our local content writers, adding flavor and depth beyond just Wikipedia. And you're right; we've already updated the tour to clarify the walking bit and the admission details. Sorry about the rain on your visit – Texas weather, right? Remember, your purchase sticks around, so feel free to enjoy the stories on a sunny day at home or dive into another tour from our extensive list. Let's chat about an exchange or refund if it's not hitting the spot. Safe travels!

Loved the view at Mount Bonner and the rolling hills around Austin. Learned things I didn’t know about Austin.
