I'm a historic preservationist, my husband is an architect. We had a day in Austin and wanted to learn about Austin's history and see some of its historic architecture. Emily made it happen. She was extremely knowledgeable, answering all our questions, and even took us to some extra places, knowing we would enjoy them. Highly recommend!
Great background on the rise of Austin from days of the lawless wild West to a bustling modern city.

Our guide was enthusiastic and interesting. It was easy to imagine the days of brothels, gunslingers and cowboys. Buildings still exist that display the city’s colorful past. I recommend this two hour tour as a worthwhile historical introduction to Austin.
Great experience, really worth doing!

Fast-growing Austin’s history is receding quickly, the desire to preserve balanced against the equally strong drive to reinvent. Emily (our guide on the Cornerstones tour) is passionate without being strident, informative but not lecturing, warm, personable, and tireless. We saw residential, governmental, and commercial buildings and Emily explained their styles and significance while sharing a nice perambulation around the center of Texas’s capital city.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant, telling us about the history and architecture of central Austin. One part we especially enjoyed was the Bremen block, with gorgeous homes built after the Civil War. (I’m not sure if I spelled the man’s name correctly.)
