My husband and I were in town from Louisiana for a concert event and to celebrate a birthday, so we were looking for some fun ideas to explore the Austin area and who doesn’t like wine and BBQ? We both work a lot and needed a good weekend of play without having to worry about driving and trying to navigate through unknown areas. On a whim, I chose this tour, and even after a very late night , we were excited to get up and explore the Austin hill country. We were promptly greeted by the sweetest young person, Henry , whom I quickly decided was one of the most memorable people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. She made the experience so much fun from start to finish. All along the ride up, she pointed out landmarks, gave advice on places to visit, tailored specifically to each group of visitors in the tour. My husband and I were the “old couple” there was a very young couple and a small bachelorette party, so a very diverse crowd, but she seemed to have something that she could relate to each one of us and we all felt included in the whole days and events. She was very knowledgeable of Austin’s history, it’s landscape, the culture , etc. She even gave me a bit of history on some scandalous infamous Austin historical figures that I am related to which I thought was very interesting and fairly comical. If you get the chance to go on a tour , ask for Henry ; you certainly won’t be disappointed! Oh ! And the BBQ and wine were wonderful as well !
