Austin Art and Architecture Bicycle Tour

After making your own way to meet your guide at the designated location, you'll be provided with a bike, helmet, and orientation for your ride.

Hear about the city's 'Art in Public Places' program as you roll through downtown Austin, then head to the Driskill Hotel on 6th Street, an ornate landmark that dates to 1886. Pass by the massive Texas State Capitol en route to the University of Texas at Austin campus, which has museums, public sculptures and a Skyspace installation by James Turrell.

Pedal by the historic Victorian homes found in the Bremond Block Historic District, and contrast it with the modern architecture of the Federal Courthouse and City Hall.

Your tour ends with return to the starting point after 2.5 hours.

Austin has long held a reputation for being a city of innovative creators. What better way to experience that history than on a bike and through the lens of art and architecture? On this tour, you will be guided through 130+ years of beautiful architectural history. You'll see the hidden jewels of art scattered in unexpected places. Among the stops, you'll visit iconic buildings such as the downtown Driskell Hotel and the Littlefield building. You'll visit the iconic UT Tower and the public arts on campus. And of course, no Austin architecture tour would be complete without a trip to the Capital Building. You'll learn some history, see some beautiful work, and have a great time riding your bike around beautiful Austin, TX.
