Start your morning by exploring the trendy South Congress Avenue. This area is home to several unique stores, art galleries, and delicious food trucks. Stop by Allens Boots to get outfitted with authentic cowboy boots, grab some tacos at Torchy’s Tacos, and cool off with a pint at Yard Bar, a dog-friendly bar with an off-leash dog park.
After a night out on Sixth Street, spend the next day relaxing on Lake Travis with a boat tour. Enjoy swimming, tubing, and cliff jumping on this scenic lake. The tour includes a captain and a cooler, so you can bring your own drinks and snacks to enjoy on board.
