An Austin bachelorette weekend

Itineraries · Austin, TX · 3 days

A 3-day Austin bachelorette plan: Rainey Street's bungalow bars, breakfast tacos, a swim at Barton Springs, South Congress, Uchi, Sixth Street and Texas barbecue before you fly home.

Austin is a bachelorette favorite for good reason: live music every night, great food at every price, and a spring-fed pool in the middle of town. This plan gives each night a different neighborhood and keeps the days easy, with barbecue as the send-off.

Plan it together in Freya

Every stop goes on your trip with its place from Apple Maps, so the group gets directions, drive times and the weather. Then swap things out, vote and split the costs.

Tips

  • Rainey Street and Sixth Street fill up after 10 PM on weekends. Start early to keep the group together.
  • Barton Springs Pool stays around 68°F all year and has an entry fee. Check the pool schedule; it closes for cleaning one day a week.
  • Franklin Barbecue lines start before it opens. Terry Black's is the easier send-off with a big group.
  • From March to October, the bats fly out from under the Congress Avenue Bridge around sunset.

Questions

Is 3 days enough for Austin?

For a first visit, yes. This plan fits 11 stops into 3 days (Day 1: Rainey Street; Day 2: Barton Springs and South Congress; Day 3: Barbecue and home). Add a day if your group likes a slower pace.

When is the best time to go to Austin?

March to May and October to November; summers are very hot.

Where should a group eat in Austin?

This plan stops at Banger's Sausage House & Beer Garden, Juan in a Million, Uchi, Franklin Barbecue and Terry Black's Barbecue. Vote on dinner in Freya if the group can't agree.

What if the group wants to split up?

The ideas under “If we have time” (Congress Avenue Bridge bats and Franklin Barbecue) are optional. In Freya, set who's going on a stop so everyone knows where to meet back up.

How do we use this plan as a group?

Tap Add to Freya on an iPhone. Every stop goes on a shared trip with its place from Apple Maps, so the group gets directions, drive times and the weather. Friends join from a link with just their first name, then swap stops, vote on plans and split the costs.
