Austin Travel Guide

Traveling to Texas for some outdoor adventure? Book a flight to Austin and enjoy the great outdoors in one of the nation’s greenest cities. Austin was originally called “Waterloo” because of its excessive creeks and water areas throughout the state. Today, travelers vacationing in Austin have the chance to explore nature preserves, rivers, lakes, eco-friendly parks, and many other things around the city. In addition, Austin is one of the nation’s leading energy producers and enforces a tough recycling program in an effort to keep the city clean and green. But there’s more things to do in Austin than visit wide open spaces. Texas’ capital city is one of the fastest growing cities in America and is rich in history.

Originally a buffalo hunting ground, Austin today is home to many prominent government officials and state historical monuments. Hop a cheap flight to Austin and take a walk back in time at the Texas State Cemetery, where the rich and colorful pasts of Texas’ politicians come to life. Feel like a millionaire while you wander through Bremond Block, an area flanked with 19thcentury mansions and only blocks away from the many Austin landmarks that define the city. If bicycling through nature parks isn’t quite your speed, hop on a plane to Austin and tour one of the nation’s leading universities – The University of Texas. Thinking of furthering your education? Famous Longhorns include Lady Bird Johnson, Janis Joplin and Walter Cronkite.

Getting to and around Austin

Austin’s public transportation will get you all over the city on public buses or vans for a flat fee. You can also transfer for free during a three-hour window. If you’re exploring the historic downtown area, check out the Armadillo Express, also called “the Dillo,” for free trolley rides. Taxis can be expensive and it’s easiest to get one by calling ahead or hanging out in front of a hotel downtown.

Tips for your stay in Austin

  • There is a reason whyWalking Magazine chose Austin as America’s “Most Fit” city. Everywhere you look you’ll find walkers and runners sharing sidewalks and paths with cyclists and rollerbladers.

  • Grab a pint at the Scholz Garten. Austin’s oldest drinking establishment welcomes patrons after work for a draft beer and some local conversation. Find a seat at one of the picnic tables on the outdoor patio and enjoy a little bit of relaxation.
  • Austin’s hometown hero and former president,Lyndon B. Johnson, is honored at the LBJ Library.
  • Austin is an outdoor city and never is this more clear than during one of the city’s outdoor concerts. Check the local papers for times and information and cop a squat in the great outdoors for a little music and lyrics under the Texas stars.
