Nightlife on 6th Your Texpert Tour gives you much more than history and scenery—you get the insider’s scoop on everything from hand-dipped ice cream to live music. Spend a few eye-opening hours with one of Austin’s most respected and renowned tour designers, and come away with an unforgettable perspective that will satisfy you long after your return home. To further compliment your total experience, all Texpert Tours feature refreshments, maps, souvenirs, and custom-printed schedules.

We begin with my picking you up in a comfortable and stylish Chevy Suburban (the National Car of Texas), then we head downtown to view the Old City’s charming structures, intriguing galleries, and fragrant bakeries. Here’s a style or flavor for any taste, including favorite brewpubs, coffeehouses, and restaurants. When you’re on a Texpert Tour, you get special treatment available nowhere else.

While in the central district, we’ll tour inside the magnificent Texas State Capitol,
  Down Congress painstakingly restored to its original glory, along with its spacious landscaped grounds, numerous exhibits, and stately monuments. Nearby is the Capitol Visitor Center, Zavala Archives, and ante-bellum Governor’s Mansion,
    Senate Chamber still the chief executive’s residence. Texpert Tours unlock the secrets these buildings hold.

The Drag (Guadalupe Street) draws us to University of Texas museums, plazas, and greenery along Waller Creek to the LBJ Library. Here too are the Bass Concert Hall, Memorial Stadium, and the Center for American History, where we catch our first glimpse of the majestic Hill Country.

If you like, we’ll top one of those hills, Mount Bonnell in West Austin. From its 105-step summit, you behold a grand bend in the Colorado River and the rolling prairies to the East—a whole geography lesson in one sweeping panorama. Later, we can head westward into that rugged country and take a turn around jewel-like Lake Travis and its wineries, parks, and vistas. Texpert Tours offer you an all-encompassing outlook on Central Texas. Take a gander at this comprehensive slideshow from a satisfied recent client.
