- Shawntele O0 contributionsLoads of Fun!Outstanding Twisted Texas Tour! Pimp Piccadilly and Harry were excellent hosts. Tour started a little rough as first stop at bbq food truck failed bc truck ran out of bbq! WHAT?????? Pimp shifted gears and we ended up eating Kolache and Burritos instead. Solid pivot but we were all secretly still hoping for bbq. All was good with the shift and ciders, beers, and s’mores were also on the agenda. Ended the night at White Horse honky tonk! So much fun and fantastic people watching! Acoustical concert from Harry as we drove between locations was next level. Pimp kept everything relaxed and fun. Highly recommend Twisted Texas Tours!Written April 13, 2024

This tour was full of energy and fun! Rain bow was full of information, lots of personality, and she drove safe. Hanna Marie was very talented (she sang to us and played the guitar), and she was very personable when escorting us around. Both had such a good banter between them and got the whole bus involved in the tour. We saw some quirky and cool murals, had a nice walk across the bridge, and even got some ice cream at the end. Would highly recommend this tour for a fun way to learn more about Austin.

Excellent tour! Pimp Piccadilly and Dan had a natural ability to get the group laughing and their sense of humor and musical approach kept us all engaged, and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed what they do.
It wasn’t just about having fun. Piccadilly was super knowledgeable and passionate, striking the perfect balance between education and entertainment. They found comedic ways to bring history and culture to life without it ever feeling dry or boring.
So fun!

Visited Austin for the first time for just one day with my daughter and booked the Twisted Texas Tour as thought it would be fun for both of us. This tour went beyond our expectations!! The two tour guides, one that sings with her guitar, were extremely knowledgeable about Austin and personable. The van was comfortable, and we had the opportunity to get off to explore and take pictures many times during the tour. I felt like we truly got the feel for Austin and what there was to see and do after the tour. And the tour even ended with an ice cream treat. Highly recommend the Twisted Texas Tour to enjoy your time in Austin!!!

This was my 1st trip to Austin and really didn't know much about the city, history, food or culture. The driver of the van was so informative and friendly. He did a great jo of showing us fun places to visit while in the city. There was also a singer that played guitar and took pics!

Had a great morning touring Austin with Pippi and Little Willy. Saw all the top sights downtown including 6th Ave, South Congress, food truck trailer park (with a delicious chalupa break), Capitol building, street art, East town, with time for photo ops and to stretch our legs. Ended tour with interesting stop with street artist and a chance to try our hand creating our own graffiti

The bus was hot and the AC was not working properly. It was about 110 degrees outside. Would have been great if they had a cooler with bottles of water for everyone - other guests were asking for water. Dan the musician was great - has a nice voice and added a fun element to the ride. The disappointing part was that the tour is advertised from 1-330pm, and we ended early at 307pm. Left us feeling like we didn't get our full moneys worth. Would have been nice if we could have driven around South Congress more to add on some time, or stop at more than one of their famous murals around town for a photo opp.

Thank you very much for the feedback. We've been brainstorming about how to help manage the incredible summer heat, so we really appreciate hearing from you on that front. And we'll definitely follow up on the length of the tour with your guide!

This a fun way to tour Austin. Amber and Lucinda are fun, funny and punny. Despite coming across some surprise construction detours Amber made sure we still got see all of the sites all the while explaining the history and weirdness in a fun way. Lucinda was great with her witty and catchy ditties.

You go around the city in a van - which is fine if you’re in the 1st/2nd row. If you’re any further back, not only is it hard to hear what’s being said or sung, but your vision is limited. Van was a little hot the day we went - again probably better toward the front. We got to see some interesting parts of town, including murals and some good stories. Nice to see the UT campus and the Rainey district. Stopping for ice cream was a unexpected highlight!

We've been to Austin several times, but the Twisted Texas Tour introduced us to places and stories we didn't know. Lucinda and Amber were awesome tour guides - funny, talented, smart and welcoming. We can't imagine a better way to spend a few hours in Austin - and the ice cream they treated us to was outstanding.

Hello,
I am looking into the Friday March 25th tour. I have a party of 4, but there seems to only be 3 tickets available. Is there any situations where you would increase by one or should we check in later to see if there are any cancelations?
Thank you,
Michelle
