Your Guides & Local Experts

Your guides = our lifeblood • At Austin Adventures we think of our guides as the world’s best travel companions • Whether taking you down an unmarked trail to a hidden hot spring or arranging a private painting demonstration with a local artist, our guides are the folks who truly make the Austin Adventures experience

So what’s the secret? • Austin Adventures’ guides possess the most important emotional quality one must embody to do what they do successfully: empathy • They are excellent listeners, with an uncanny ability to uncover individual wants, needs, limitations, hopes, and aspirations

The perfect travel companions • Along with their empathy, our guides are selected for their infectious enthusiasm, sense of humor, and encyclopedic knowledge of the local wildlife, geography, history, language, and culture • Most have an average tenure of 15 years – one of the highest in the industry

Guests often forge long-lasting friendships with their guides and fellow travelers
