A Guide for Austin
By businessbroad | December 24, 2007
Next spring, I’m taking a brief, 3-4 day trip to Austin, Texas. It’s part business, part pleasure, but definitely a little heavier on the business side of things. That means that I won’t have nearly as much time as I might like for things like getting lost and exploring. Fortunately, they make city guides for scenarios just like mine.
Instead of getting lost and wasting half a day looking for something fun to do, I can use an Austin City Guide to figure out what’s good before I even get there. It includes information on cheap hotels, interesting events, attractions, weather, and general tourist information.
My main goal will probably be to get a good deal on the hotel so I can spend more money on live music and some good ribs. While there’s no shortage of good ribs here in the Midwest, it would just seem wrong to miss out on barbecued meat during a trip to Texas.
If any of you have been to Austin and have suggestions the guide doesn’t cover, definitely add them in the comments. If you’re going on a trip soon, I highly recommend checking out the HotelsbyCity.net guide page for the city in question. I’ve found their Austin page to be helpful enough to justify giving it a spot on my Bookmarks Toolbar until after the trip.
