Summary: This was a great tour we learned about the cultural roots of Austin. The tour took us throughout the city pointing out restaurants, dance venues, and businesses that makeup the culture in this city. We even went into the Capitol building, and we're shown the portraits of previous governors within the ratunda. David, our tour guide, did an excellent job.
