Welcome to Texas, home to some of the best BBQ in the World!

Upon arrival your private transfer will pick you up from the airport & take you to our hotel.

Tonight enjoy a Welcome Dinner in Houston. After dinner head back to the hotel to sleep off some of that jet lag!

After breakfast we head to our first BBQ joint. Doors open at 11am and they close when sold out. Let’s get there early and be prepared to wait.

Once we’ve had our fill, we’re off to the NASA Johnson Space Center.

Today we travel to Giddings via College Station, home of Texas A&M University and the Aggies. We leave College station in the afternoon, head out to Giddings where we’ll check in to our hotel. Tonight we’ll visit a local distillery and brewhouse for dinner and drinks….but we’ve got an early start in the morning, so it’ll be back to the hotel at a reasonable time.

Up early today as it’s time to visit the world famous Snow’s BBQ in Lexington, Tx.

The experience alone is worth it. If you’re lucky enough, you can get a photo with 88 year old Miss Tootsie, Snow’s Pit Master.

We head straight to San Antonio after "breakfast" where you can check out the Alamo and the Riverwalk district. This is our home for the next 2 nights.

Today we've got a day trip to Lockhart, TX, the “Barbecue Capital of Texas”. You’re definitely spoiled for choice here!

We have the day to check out any of the 4 best BBQ restaurants in the world! Blacks Barbecue, Terry Blacks Barbecue, Kreuz Market, Smitty's Market....interesting family history here.

Easy start to the day before we travel to The Salt Lick BBQ in Driftwood. Here we’ll have an early lunch and watch the Pitmaster do his thing. Before we move on to Austin, you can check out Salt Lick Cellars store where they sell their own wines that are made on site.

Next stop, Austin……The BBQ and Music Capital of the world! What more can we say??

Today you’re on your own to explore Austin. There’s much to do and see, and plenty of BBQ to sample. We suggest you start at Franklin BBQ this morning but get there at 8am-9am (Bus will leave hotel at 8am) as the lines can get long quickly!

The Hop On Hop Off tour is a good way to really get to know Austin (Tickets supplied).

You can check out the Texas Capitol, the Museum of the Weird, the downtown area with dinky little bars, speakeasies and restaurants or simply walk the streets. You may even find a few bands playing later in the day.

Day trip to Fredericksburg. A cool little town 90 minutes west of Austin. Main Street has 150 shops, boutiques and art galleries as well as dozens of restaurants, wine tasting rooms, a brewpub, two museums and more.

Back in Austin for dinner at one of our favourite BBQ Restaurants in Texas, these guys are absolutely nailing every aspect of BBQ.

A bit of an earlier start today as we're hitting #2 on the Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ restaurants by 10am. Here is a more modern style of BBQ that is simply mouth-watering!

After having our fill, we’ll head up highway 35 to Waco, with maybe a little secret stop along the way….for those of you with a sweet-tooth, keep some room free!. Then off to Waxahachie, before we stop for. the night in Dallas.

After a morn ing tour, the bus takes up to the Forth Worth Historic Stockyards. Fort Worth is where we’ll spend our last couple of days, so let’s get our Cowboy on.

From Bars to Steak Houses, cowboy outlets to touristy shops, the Stockyards area is a vibrant place with plenty to see and do.

Early start again as we’re off to the Number 1 spot on the Texas Top 50 BBQ Restaurants from 2021…. A few little stops on the way back to the Stockyards where we'll hit the town!

All good things must come to an end, but not before some last minute BBQ!

Check out of the hotel and head for our goodbye brunch

On the way to the airport, we’ll stop in Grapevine. Grapevine is a mix of small-town charm and urban style. Experience this vibrant food and entertainment area & enjoy shopping and dining in the Main Street Historic District.

Thanks Y’all, we’re done! Hope you enjoyed your time!
