We had a great time on our tour of Austin with our guide Luke. He was personable and knowledgeable about the city, its history, and the vibrant arts & cultural scene. The tour van was clean and air conditioned which was very nice in the Austin heat. It was also nice we got to get out and explore the capital and famous Austin street mural. The tour group was a perfect size (10 people total).

I took the Austin Detours Street Art + Street Food tour today with Evan, and it was hands-down one of the BEST Austin experiences I’ve ever had! Evan is an incredible guide — fun, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Austin’s culture. I lucked out and was the only guest on the tour, so it felt like a private, behind-the-scenes adventure. We explored amazing street art spots, learned the stories behind the murals, and tasted some seriously delicious local food along the way. Evan went above and beyond to make the day unforgettable — from sharing insider Austin history to introducing me to hidden gems I never would have found on my own. If you want a true taste of Austin’s creative side (and its killer food scene), THIS is the tour to book. Thank you, Austin Detours and Evan, for an epic day! Oh, BTW, I’m born and raised here and I learned ALOT, lololololo! 🩵🌺🤙🏻

I did 2 different tours and had 2 amazing guides! Jax for the "Tour Austin" was super friendly and knowledgeable of all the neighborhoods and the Austin music scene past and present. David was another great guide for the half day wine trip. I was solo but the whole group loved him! He was personable and open to all questions. He was so sweet with his personalization for each of passenger on places in Austin to check out. They both really care about what they do! I'm gonna be back soon and will definitely take another tour!
