Twisted Texas Tour delivers fun, laid-back Austin experiences that consistently win over visitors. The brunch bus tours get particular praise, with guides like Tex, Pimp, Hari, and "Big Daddy Bacon" earning shoutouts for their knowledge and humor. Live musicians on board take requests and add genuine entertainment value, while food stops serve tasty bites paired with unique drinks at each location. The vibe is clearly relaxed and jovial, with many reviewers mentioning they learned Austin insider tips and local history they didn't expect. A couple of things to keep in mind: one reviewer found a private tour disappointing, feeling it involved too much driving and personal commentary rather than structured sightseeing. Another noted that as a "food tour," portions were smaller than expected compared to dedicated culinary experiences. That said, the overwhelming majority had a blast and felt the tours struck the right balance of entertainment, education, and exploration. People book repeat tours, which says plenty about the quality. If you want an upbeat way to discover Austin's personality beyond typical tourist stops, this crew knows how to show you a good time.
I went on my second Twisted Tour this past weekend. I had previously attended the Brunch tour and decided to experience the Live Music tour this time. You can’t go wrong with either option! Hanna and Kate were amazing, and they created a memorable evening for us.
