While you’re in town, make sure to stop by the hip South Congress neighbourhood to shop at the trendy boutiques and grab some grub at the authentically Austin restaurants.

After that, head over to Lady Bird Lake and rent a kayak for a relaxing paddling session on the water, or simply go for a walk on the picturesque Hike & Bike Trail. Finally, spend the night bar hopping along the pedestrian-only Sixth Street.
While the Austin airport is located on the outskirts of the city, the main train station is right in the heart of downtown. Similarly, the two bus stations that serve Austin are located close to the city centre, making ground transportation the more convenient way to travel in and out of town.
