What a fantastic experience!

What a fantastic experience! It was the perfect amount of Austin history and delicious food. In addition our guide, Robert, was an absolute delight. He was very informative, considerate, and fun to be around. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to get an introduction to Austin and all it has to offer.
Great Food Experience

Tacos to cookie heaven

Wonderful tour! We like to start our trips with a brief overview of the city’s history & good food, so we are big fans of food tours. This was no different & Zachary was absolutely wonderful. Great anecdotal stories of how businesses started, wonderful history of Austin and then the food. Good gracious. We ate so much…from the velvet taco to the best cookie I may have had in my life. Wonderful way to spend our first afternoon in Austin.

Terrible
Lubica_P
, Aug 2021
Terrible experience. No secret food places, we went to well known chains: velvet taco, Glorias, voodo donuts. We went to a pizza place for a desert. No insight from the tour guide. Not worth the money. No special food- basic no side dishes. You’re better off walking up and down Congress street, stopping in every restaurant, ordering one basic thing from their menu and making up your own stories as we did as to what makes these places special (secret).

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
