Austin + Hill Country Panoramic Tour with Stops

Excellent tour with a really good tour guide. We enjoyed the experience in a super clean comfortable vehicle. The tour guide was knowledgeable and fun. Austin truly is a beautiful city. This tour shows us places we would not have got to see. Worth every penny don’t hesitate to take the tour.

Guide was very knowledgeable and what a fantastic way to see Austin! Comfortable transport action, enjoyable.

I enjoyed traveling up through the hills and seeing the beautiful homes on the water. The tour offered a lot of great information about the history of Austin, current events, and informed you about the city’s culture. We made stops at some beautiful places that we later visited on our own.

What a great time! Tour was exactly as advertised and more. Our host was very accommodating and prompt. Would easily consider taking this tour again.

It was a great experience. The driver/tour guide was very nice and considerate of my parents (they are late 60’s-mid 70’s). Great way to see the sights and not have to personally drive around town. This was a 46th anniversary trip for my parents and they thoroughly enjoyed it and so did I. Tips: wear a hat and sunscreen due to heat and bring water/beverage. The tour we took was 2.5hr in a convertible and we loved it because we were prepared.

This tour gave us the experience of seeing an area of Austin to which we never would have ventured. The weather was hot, but the A/C was pumping and the retractable roof allowed a nice breeze to cool things off.

We had a wonderful, knowledgeable guide and she handle the bus like a pro with all of the extra holiday traffic. Great off the beaten path sights and beautiful views. We had the top down so be sure and bring sunscreen and water to keep hydrated. Excellent trip, Thank you!!

This is one of the best, if not the best, tour we have been on. Guide was fun and informative, van was immaculately clean, and took us to interesting places in Austin we would not have seen ourselves. The weather was nice so the open air part of the trip was wonderful.

Our guide was excellent. We were a party of six sisters 5 from St. Louis MO, and a transplant from Alaska. We enjoyed the tour with Ari.

A very comprehensive city tour of Austin in the comfort of an open convertible Sprinter driven by Ari, our expert guide. Included landmarks, parks and architecture as well as interesting history! Nice photo ops and 2 stops to stretch our legs and do a bit of additional sightseeing. An excellent value for the experience!

The experience was awesome! Joel was very informative and personable! I've lived in Austin for 20 years and learned a lot! Will be doing it again with future out-of-town guests!

It was engaging, our tour guide was great and was very informative. We'll worth a cost. If you're not sure what to do I recommend this tour. Thanks for a great after.

Guide was great! The weather was great! Really cool vehicle!!! The Hill Country was particularly beautiful and so surprising that it is in Texas.

Excellent views of Austin highlights. Great description by your guide.

This was a very comfortable and interesting tour. In the past we have always booked on the hop on/ hop off bus, this is so much better! Love the open top of the van. Love that we are able to get out and explore at different stops. Love the commentary provided both by the guide and the pre programmed audio. Loved that it was a small group with extra Covid precautions. Really loved everything about this❤️

The entire tour was amazing. Ari was an amazing tour guide and is passionate about living in Austin. The tour is with several places to go after the tour too!

Loved the views of the lake from the hilltop. Joel was a terrific driver and guide. The two snd a half hour trip allowed several opportunities to get up and walk around for a few minutes.

Van was very comfortable and the tour was good. Learned a lot about Austin's history. Weather was just right this weekend for being outdoors. Bonnell Park was the best part. Beautiful short hiking trail on Lake Austin.

Our driver, Ali, was very knowledgeable about the Austin area and provided an excellent overview of the city. I would highly recommend the 2 1/2 hour tour because you have the opportunity to see some of the sites by getting off of the bus.

I really enjoyed this tour. Normally I’m not a big tour guy but this won me over. The fact that it was open air on a gorgeous day certainly helped. Ari was a great guide. She has a good knowledge of Austin and was willing to drive with the top down. She handled a couple of curve ball questions well plus she’s an excellent driver. You get to see a lot. Would definitely recommend it Thx, Ari!

"Having Malina as our guide was my favorite aspect of the tour — she’s PHENOMENAL!!! This was my second tour with Malina; she knows the city so well that she’s able to share insights and “behind the scenes” details and history, which makes things extra interesting!"

"AO Tours, an iconic company in the City of Austin. Their amazing tours are fit for any size groups. I have been many times with various clients and never disappointed. Recently, we rode in their new lux tour bus, it was so much fun, very comfortable, the glass roof was impressive and when opened you felt the awesome city. The audio explanation of the sights was on spot, including the Spanish version. AND...they are sanitizing their vehicles every day with a hospital grade product via their tech machines. Talk about a Clinically Clean touring service!"

"Our tour guide was Malina she was great! We opted for the panoramic van tour that took us to the hills of Austin. This tour provided headphones to listen to the narration of the different stops , provided hand sanitizer and is Covid Compliant. The most exciting part of the tour for me was visiting Mount Bonnel to my surprise it was a mini hike to get to the top but the views were worth the hike. I recommend this tour to all first time visitors to Austin. I learned a lot about Austin on the tour and I'm better prepared for my next trip to Austin."
