I was born and raised here and let me tell you those temperatures are Wayyy off. More like 90-108 degrees in July and 50-80 degrees in January. Zilker park and the greenbelt are pretty cool.
I appreciated the visual transitions from where things are located in Austin it gives me a idea of where things are and made me more interested in checking places out.
Best tour vid I’ve seen. love the location markers giving you a good idea of the layout of the city! I am visiting soon and this helps considerably! Asheville NC and the area around it would be a great city to explore.
You all probably dont give a shit but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Benjamin Marley Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I just love these video series. Been in Austin for a year and I havent been to half of these. A few additions i'd recommend: 1. Here Nor There - this bar has some real awesome Irish bartenders 2. A haircut at Birds Barbeshop 3. Austin Eastciders 4. Oasis cafe 5. Wimberly
I've lived here for a while now ... Fine video, got the basics. No complaints really. BUT... Tacos .. don't waste your time with Torchy's, it's going national soon anyway. 1. Cuantos on 12th. 2. Valentinas on Manchaca. 3. Pabalote on South Lamar 4. Taccorido (Multiple Locations) 5. Veracruz (Multiple locations but go to the one at Radio Coffee house cause Radio is dope.) 6. Pastor on Riverside 7. Pueblo Viejo (multiple locations) 8. La Tunita (Birria on Burleson) .... and literally any other gas station taco place around the city. Also Vegans...Best Burger in the World is at Arlos.
I am from Portland OR and it’s raining here everyday for the past month and I’m hellaaa over it! Really going to do some research into Texas! Looks awesome!
Currently in Austin visiting and using this list. LOVING our experience here on my bday weekend no less…very seriously considering moving here. Thanks for the video!
Great summary of the city! You named a lot of my favorite spots. Been here for 4 years and still love love living here. I can't think of another city I'd rather live in that has it all
You had me with the locals with their passive aggressive comments! I moved to Austin during covid and I had to discover most of these spots without a some blogger. I wish I would have watched your videos before and it would have made my experience a lot better. Keep making awesome content!
I love Austin, I was born there [ Breckenridge Hospital ]. Barton Springs use to have topless women lying around poolside. That lake was once named, Town Lake. I grew up in Austin, and in Dallas!
I remember visiting Austin in the 1970’s and the tallest building was the Capitol and some UT dorms. Wow, it has changed and gotten expensive to visit.
See, I grew up in Austin, but I'm also the oldest of 5. I never really ventured too far from my family and we lived most of the time in Round Rock. I very much love how you smoothly made the transition frin Zilker Park, Barton Springs & other places: AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!
my family currently lives and Round Rock, I love RR its clean 🥲 i lived in RR for a year and then left to military service, i’m going back home for christmas and i really wanna explore austin when i get there 🥺
You did a really good job with this video. I live in Austin and it was nice to recap some of my favorite places and learn about a few new ones. I shared it with a couple friends who are considering making a visit. One of them is saying August and this made me realize I should probably ask him to reconsider for mid September =)
I'm just now seeing your comment a year later! But I second what the other commenter said about needing a good job. Living centrally is important to me otherwise I don't feel like I'm really in Austin or taking advantage of the things that make it special. But I can't afford to buy a house in the area I live in right now. I've been thinking about relocating tbh@@fiamma2109
Small tip: As someone who is Mexican, if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food, don’t go to a Tex-Mex place. Tex-Mex is not authentic since it fuses Texas food with Mexican. We don’t eat burritos and a bunch of queso and chips in Mexico, or at least not in my village. Tex-Mex can be delicious for sure though.
I live in Austin but Im glad I could get the names of some cool places to eat and hang out ! If your other cities reviews are like this one than Im in !
First of all, if you want “Good Authentic Mexican” let me stop you there. You are not going to find it in Austin lol. Visit San Antonio where Mexican influence and culture is still very present and thriving. Austin’s Mexican restaurants freaking give you sour cream and chips for crying out loud lmao. That’s how you know it ain’t authentic 😂
@@AB-vq6fl maybe the problem with ‘locals’ being so upset is that instead of finding a way to collaborate with the inevitable they steep in hate and anger for the good ol days - you’re not miserable because people are moving there, you’re miserable because you make yourself miserable.
@@phoenixdown7801 I’d like to find a way to collaborate finding a way to pay my rent that has gone up 30% in the last 5 years because people will NOT STOP MOVING HERE! I’ve lived here 30 years and am being forced out because the cost of living is not worth it. Crowded, full of homeless, unrelenting heat and ridiculous utility bills...I’m done.
I've been gathering info for some time now, as to where to move to in the not so distant future. (Charlotte; NC, Coconut Grove in Miami, FL; Saint Petersburg, FL and Austin, TX....I got an acquaintance living in Miami, and a friend in Austin.) Hmm, even though it's smart to visit each place and check it out, I think this video has inclined the balance to Austin....And no, money won't be an issue.
1. Sit in Barton Springs Pool. 2. Stand in the freezer section at HEB and munch the free samples there. 3. Spend all day in the freezing movie theatres. 4. Sit in any freezing library. 5. Sit in a storm. 6. Sit in your car with the AC all the way up. 7. Visit a freezing museum. 8. Put your wet clothes in the freezer, take a cold shower and put on your frozen clothes with pockets full of ice cubes before you go out. 9. Dress all in black and pretend you are cool.
Thanks! This recommendation is good enough for me! Seriously, your video is basically my blueprint for my trip. Much appreciated! Subscribed for future content.
Don't forget that at Barton Springs, women are legally allowed to go topless! It's really fun! Don't be shy! Also, I recommend going to Baby Alcopocos or Baby A's! The Purple Margarita is a classic there! The Tortilla Soup is too! I always get Tortilla Soup with extra Avacado and cheese lol. I'm a born and raised Austinite. Just ask me if you want more recommendations. Also, go to Hippie Hollow if you want to go nude or wear clothes. It's clothing optional!
Thanks for the comprehensive video you have gathered! I am on the verge of leaving CA for Austin and was looking after videos like this! Glad that I found it ...Awesome job! also, please add economic and employment stats and housing prices as well as the nice neighborhoods to live too!
Both of them are really cool, and very similar. I'd say if your taste in music leans more towards country go to Nashville. Austin is a bit more hipster, but has a lot more to do.
Definitely the best 'What to do in Austin?' video I've seen so far
This is one of the best videos I've seen. Provides a lot of information with many pictures. Super focused, not going off track. Great job!
I was born and raised here and let me tell you those temperatures are Wayyy off. More like 90-108 degrees in July and 50-80 degrees in January. Zilker park and the greenbelt are pretty cool.
We were surprised too! That’s the average according to the internet, but we would swear the average temp in summer in shy of 100 😅
lol Zipper park? Don't you mean Zilker? Zipper suits it more with all the damn homeless around. Austin is ruined.
Another native checking in. Can confirm.
Yeah, it is unbearably hot 90% of the time during the summer months.
What abt September?
My wife and I are moving to Austin for my work and she said this video gave her a lot of hope for some fun things to do and eat in Austin. Giddiup!
I appreciated the visual transitions from where things are located in Austin it gives me a idea of where things are and made me more interested in checking places out.
I'm an aggressive local and I think you did a great job with this video - well done !
I've lived and traveled here often, you did a fantastic job summarizing Austin. Well done.
Thanks!
My daughter now is sophomore student at UT of Austin. We visited her often and really love our capital, Austin.
Best tour vid I’ve seen. love the location markers giving you a good idea of the layout of the city! I am visiting soon and this helps considerably! Asheville NC and the area around it would be a great city to explore.
This video was SO well done!!! Thank you
One of My Favorite Road Trip Weekend Places from Houston, Texas.
Best vlog I've seen on Austin! Very informative! Thank you!
You all probably dont give a shit but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!

@Benjamin Marley it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
@Crew Quinn Glad I could help =)
I just love these video series. Been in Austin for a year and I havent been to half of these.
A few additions i'd recommend:
1. Here Nor There - this bar has some real awesome Irish bartenders
2. A haircut at Birds Barbeshop
3. Austin Eastciders
4. Oasis cafe
5. Wimberly
Oasis is amazing!
Sounds boring af

It's the best video of Austin that I've ever seen.
Currently in Austin visiting and using this list. LOVING our experience here on my bday weekend no less…very seriously considering moving here. Thanks for the video!
Don't move to Austin!!
@@kylpatrik Why?
@@kaneda6118too pricey and because we Austinites really don't want more people cause too many people are moving here already.
Great video - as always! Really interesting and helpful
Don’t forget to use the pedicabs in downtown Austin for easy travel and fun
The best vlog on Austin by far! Thank you so much!!!!
And you are SO cute!!!
We need more videos about Austin. Born and raised currently 22
Best city ever! I left my beautiful Austin last summer and moved to Phoenix to be with family. I miss Austin so much!
Great summary of the city! You named a lot of my favorite spots. Been here for 4 years and still love love living here. I can't think of another city I'd rather live in that has it all
Austin is great!
Austin is as fake as it can get.
Parquoi Didier? Why?
You had me with the locals with their passive aggressive comments!
I moved to Austin during covid and I had to discover most of these spots without a some blogger. I wish I would have watched your videos before and it would have made my experience a lot better.

Going to Austin next week and will use this as my only reference. Love the google map graphics. The visuals helped with planning.
You did Austin so proud! My mouth is watering.

Great tips, visiting Austin from Dallas this weekend, can't wait!

Can't wait to see the Dallas and San Antonio videos!!
Very informative!! You also have a great content writer!!
Great video! Thank you! Super helpful, very informative and great presentation!
I love this video. I keep coming back to this one
Wow, what an amazingly well put together video. Congrats and thank you
Replace Enchanted Rock with Pedernales Falls State Park(Much closer to Austin) and this is the best "What to do in Austin video" I've ever seen.
Thanks! Pedernales is perfect for a day trip or camping, great recommendation!

Is it a good place to move to? Sustainable cost of living?
@fiamma2109 definitely need a good job, not a place to retire. Born and raised Austinite. It's getting pricier by the year so just an fyi

Dude, you guys are putting out incredible content!
I watch a lot of videos with travel recommendations and this is one of the best I've ever seen. Thank you! Would love to see one for Albuquerque, NM!
I used to live in Austin. I knew about most suggestions you covered but some I did not. How did I miss them?
Heading to Austin in a few weeks. This video is an amazing resource. Thank you!!!
I'm here today from NC. Going to several of these spots
Thank for this on my hometown ❤️
super useful vid! Cheers
Thanks so much!!! I’ve lived in Texas for years- so helpful!

Such a great vid! Just visited ATX, wish I saw this video prior. Super informational! Could you do Houston & Dallas next?
Houston and Dallas way down the line, but we’re always here for quick suggestions!
Wow amazing info!!!!! Hitting Austin for a long weekend! In 2 days 😊
Nicely done!
😂 The pasive aggressive coment at the end... Wonderful

This is a thoughtfully made video. You respect your audience. Well done! 🙌 Bravo! 🎉
Thank you!
"Can't be in Austin without trying authentic Mexican food"
Switches to a white girl who recommends Tex-Mex.
Overall great vid but that was weird.
Yeah, that was hilarious
Yea bro shits retarded go to the Mexican food trucks out in north lamar

Loved the video! super useful and interesting tip! Got my to-do list now! 💕

Make sure you take in a show at either Antone's, The Saxon Pub or at very least, The Cactus Cafe.
Loved the content. Very informative and truly got some excellent ideas for my upcoming visit. Thank you!
OMG who are you?!! Jacob....Your personality, love it!!
You are valid my friend. Very good job on this video and a well earned sub :)
That’s REALLY HELPFUL…… thank you. Very com-let’s tour guide
The best tacos can be found on N.Lamar where there are endless food trucks. Most open after 9pm
Facts
I’ve lived in Austin my whole life and I’ve only been to a handful of places listed.
WOW!!! This was amazingly put together. Very very informative.
Glad you liked it!
why did the UA-cam algorithm not recommend your video when I was planning my trip to Austin ughhh!!
Awesome video of Austin!! I am planning to move there in the future!!❤️
great video. lots of good info. You should do a video of Knoxville and or Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge TN, would love to see those. thanks man
very comprehensive👍and super useful❤
I need where located Bellevue in Austin I might visit couple of months I was told it’s very nice there is lot of fun Is it in South East of Austin
Lmao bro, it get hot as shit here... Lol "94" boy you wild lol
True! Plenty of TX beer to keep you cool though!
I was thinking the same.... 😆.
It's mild heat compared to Laredo, TX.
Thank you so much for this amazing video!
Austin has such great food and live music!
Thank you! Very helpful video.

Lived in Austin for 7 years 16 years ago, really missed it.
You wouldn't recognize it. I've lived here for about 30 years now. It is a completely different animal.
This is one of the best guides I’ve seen for Austin on UA-cam, great job! Moving there in January :)
Great video, super in-depth. Amazing editing. Thank you!
Thank you for this cool video. I love Austin.
I gonna be an expat /relocated in Austin around April, I hope I can do those things.

Never go hiking unless there is water to jump in at the end.
Hey, I love my shiner beer man. Gotta have it for the bbq or it ain’t good
Can anyone tell me what the arcade bar is at 20:27, please?

stay in California. We don’t want more Californians here.

Which one is better, Nashville or Austin? We never been and are travelling from Australia but can't decide which one to go to 😭
Both of them are really cool, and very similar. I'd say if your taste in music leans more towards country go to Nashville. Austin is a bit more hipster, but has a lot more to do.
