Seeing sights we probably wouldn’t have seen - Was neat to so much of the city in a short time. Things we wouldn’t have seen on our quick visit. Gave you a great idea of where things are located. So much to see and do in Austin. Was a good time. Was a little hard to hear at time with the AC blasting in the back (but we were also very happy to have the AC). Would definitely recommend.

What was that we just flew by? - Bus was clean, a little tight. The tour was a mix of prerecorded narration which was not that entertaining and the driver which I preferred, but the pace was crazy. Look to your right but at 30 miles and hour I was unsure what was what or why I was looking at it.
