5.00I recently booked a 2 1/2 hour tour as a solo traveler and was impressed by Ken's punctuality and warm personally. His passion for Austin was clear as he guided me through local attractions and shared interesting facts. Ken was flexable and added a couple places I especially wanted to see. I highly recommend Capital Hill Tours.

5.00Fantastic Fun tour in a Bronco. Learned a great deal of history. Kenny was engaging and full of stories. Fun and stress free way to get to know Austin. Great way to get acquainted with the diverse areas around Austin - artsy murals, 6th Street “Dirty 6th”, the state Capital, Rainey Cottage Bungalows converted into eateries & bars, around Lady Bird Johnson Lake & Zilker park, interesting South Congress shopping area, Mt Bonnell overlooking lake Austin. Loved the background and history of all the places we seen and stopped off at. Highly recommend as a first get-to-know the city tour.
