A golden walk

5.00The experience was a leisurely walk while stopping at about 5 different places. During the walk, we were given a history of the area. At the different stops, we were served small portions of different foods and treats and it was an overall excellent experience... My wife and I loved it, and a lot of it was also due to our guide Ben. He was personable, attentive and full of knowledge.
Clear communication and great food

5.00This is a great introduction to the Austin food scene. The small intimate tour (4ppl) allowed us to get to know our guide Alexis and take plenty of time to enjoy our treats at each stop. Alexis was easy to find thanks to her orange umbrella😊. I very much appreciated that many of the restaurants had alternative options for pescatarians! Our guide, Alexis, was friendly and knowledgeable about the local food and restaurants. Communication prior to and after the tour was frequent and clear from our guide which made this a 5+ star tour.

5.00The tour happens rain or shine. Unfortunately for us, it rained the entire time, but we still had a great time! Alexis was very entertaining and full of great information. She was the sunshine on our rainy day!
