                           fall and early winter in Austin are a fantastic time to entertain

            out-of-town guests who want to explore the city. The air is crisp and cool, the
            sun is shining, and locals exude a sense of rejuvenation and jubilation now

            that yet another long summer with record-breaking temperatures is over.
            To help you serve up a taste of Austin to your visitors, these two itineraries

            should delight guests of varying interests and ages.
