Overview

On our Secret Food Tour: Austin - South Congress, you'll escape the hustle and bustle of Downtown to discover a living, breathing Texan landmark. Our experienced guides will take you on an eclectic journey through Austin's vibrant and unique dining, nightlife, and shopping district the locals call "SoCo." On your adventure, you're likely to stumble upon delicious diner favorites, smoked BBQ specialties, and refreshing sweet treats. Throughout the experience, you'll see firsthand why this town is so fabulously "weird" and learn why we want to keep it that way! South Congress isn't just any old street in Austin, it's the artery that leads straight to the heart of Texas. As a private tour, everything works around you! Our start times are much more easy going, dates can open up. It's a much more intimate and cozy experience. No need to shout over other tourists, you will have every question answered, and leave feeling like a native yourself!
