    If you're looking for an unforgettable walking tour of the Austin music scene and history, look no further than Kyle! His tour was nothing short of outstanding. From start to finish, Kyle's enthusiasm and deep knowledge of the area made the whole experience feel both educational and fun. He blended fascinating historical insights with quirky local stories that kept me engaged. Felt like I was hanging out with an old friend.

    Kyle was an awesome guide for this 90 minute walking tour around Austin. He had lots of really great knowledge and stories, as well as suggestions for what to do on the rest of my trip; tailored to the type of music I like. Because it's private, you are able to ask lots of questions as well. Would recommend!

    Fun, laid back tour with Austin local who was very knowledgeable about the music scene and made lots of recommendations as to where I could see some shows all weekend. We took plenty of stops as needed, there are lots of cute places to pick up snacks/coffee/souvenirs if desired.

    Waterloo Music Saunter walking tour was interesting & informative. Kyle was an enthusiastic guide sharing many local Austin musicians’ stories & music scene history. We visited the famous Antoni’s music venue & record store as well as other well known music venues.

    Kyle was a super nice kid, walked us all around the downtown areas, but did not share any stories or know much about his music history or tell us anything interesting about music or the history about how Austin became the music capitol of the world or anything else. But he was nice and gave us water and took us to a nice bathroom and for that we tipped him.
