We got an overall picture of Austin's history and people. Very informative and the guide Jim Miles made sure most of it was done in the shade:)
Thank you!

We loved the tour. Our guide, Jim, shared so many great stories about Austin. He was informative, fun and energetic. We were so happy with our tour that we booked an evening ghost tour for that same day!

We (three couples) took this tour the first morning we were in Austin. What a great decision! William, our tour guide, proved to be a very gifted leader, while the tour itself rapidly enabled us to (later) negotiate the heart of Austin in more depth on our own. Let me be more specific. 1) William struck a perfect balance between covering his “script”, while making us feel very welcome to interrupt him with our questions, comments, and/or photo requests. 2) It was apparent that William spends time on his own doing research to enhance the tour dialogue and delivery. Our attention was held with all the fascinating stories (ex. Austin’s tie to Jack the Ripper) and downloaded photos from old newspapers that we continually heard and/or saw. Never were we bored in any way while on this tour, which ended right on schedule. Before closing, it is important to praise William for how capably he handled an unwanted incident. Unfortunately, a most pesky and determined “panhandler” came up to our group seeking $20.00 for a drink. William’s ability to unobtrusively get our group across the street while he dealt with the man in a non-confrontational manner was most impressive and appreciated. Additionally, William resumed the tour as if the man had never interrupted us, while simultaneously paying attention to exactly where this man was until the man finally gave up and left our area. Bottom lines: William, our tour guide, was EXCELLENT in all regards. We were exceptionally pleased that we started our time in Austin with this Viator tour. We will be using your resources again in other places. Thank you.

We did this tour on our first day in Austin and so happy we did. I think you appreciate a place much more knowing some history! Our guide was excellent- incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and experienced. The length of tour was just right for us although I would not have minded more.
Response from Host , Apr 2022
Thank you so much for this great review! We enjoyed having you on tour as well :-) all of our guides at Tour ATX are passionate about the great city of Austin and love her history. Hope you enjoyed your walk through the Driskill Hotel!
Please come back and see us again in the future, and thanks for making us part of your stay in Austin.
Best, Jim Miles

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.
