- Looking for a place to kick back and relax? Don't matter who you are, here, everybody is somebody. It's legendary both for its laid-back feel and it's music. It's time to get back to the basics of trippin' in Luckenbach.
Luckenbach is one of Texas’s favorite ways to kick back with a beer and enjoy some good country tunes from “Waylon, Willie and the boys.” And it’s been a stomping ground and stage for countless Texas musicians, like Willie Nelson, Gary P. Nunn, Pat Green, and Lyle Lovett. This cowboy hippie utopia was born in 1971 when Hondo Crouch bought the town and proclaimed himself mayor. Since then, it’s somehow found a way to preserve that laid-back vibe, even in the summers when the little “town” is packed with folks hoping to relive the good ol’ days of Texas. Stop into the old Post Office that’s now a General Store for some good shopping.
Be a part of boot-scootin’ history at this dancehall that’s been home to legendary concerts for over 72 years. It’s a classic Texas dancehall with no AC (that’s what the wind is for, folks!) and lots of two-steppin’. If you’re lucky, you might even get to be part of a pickin’ circle.
This orchard is full of 30 different varieties of peaches ripe for the pickin’. Grab a bucket and fill ‘er up with as many as your heart desires - it’s weigh and pay. These folks have a crop for every season - springtime strawberries, fall pumpkins and even Christmas trees. If you’re peach pickin’ in the summer, cool off with a scoop of their fresh homemade peach ice cream.
As the first and oldest legal whiskey distiller in Texas, Garrison Bros. has been serving it up smooth since 2006. And it’s not just any bourbon whiskey - these folks are making grain to glass bourbon out in the Texas heat, which ain’t no easy feat. Get a tour of the entire distillation process and enjoy a glass of their handiwork at the “Whiskey Shack” for a better appreciation of the magic these guys are working. Cheers, y’all.
It ain’t a day trip to a legendary Texas dancehall without a little barbecue, so head on over to the Luckenbach Feed Store for Carolina-Style Pulled Pork Sandwiches and a mound of State Fair-style curly fries. Dee-licious!
Just like Luckenbach, this café is loose and relaxed, but that don’t mean it’s not good eatin’. In fact, this is one of the best burger joints in the state. Their massive cheeseburger is basically the size of Texas. With its bigger-than-your-face glory, juicy, greasy simplicity and altogether melding of flavors, this out-of-this-world burger is for sure road trip-worthy.
Old Tunnel State Park is officially the smallest state park in Texas, but it’s full of high-flying creatures. Built around an abandoned railroad tunnel, it is now home to 3 million Mexican free-tailed bats that take flight in a batty funnel every night at sunset. It’s incredible to see the official mammal of Texas up close and personal.

I loved when you segued from the first skit to the theme song- which is awesome! Chet, you are a national treasure
Another cool episode. The Hill Country is the best.
Those onion rings looked like the best I've ever seen!
Went by there on our way to Fredericksburg and then enchanted rock. I was driving and I sat in our suv looking and thinking about the song. Mom said she didn't feel like going in and I was good with the song.
I LOVE Luckenbach !!!!
I absolutely love all these locations
Love the show! Thanks for doing what you do!
Absolute good stuff, enjoy all the Trips. Keep'm coming!!
I live in Kendalia, so I am aware of the area. However my best friend is coming to visit in June for his birthday. I'm thinking this is the perfect day trip. Appreciate ya'll 🙏 💙
Was able to finally get out there this past year. Can’t wait to get back and spend another day
Allot to do in the surrounding area of Luckenbach Tx... My favorite peaches come from Colorado...
Been there a few times and it's a great place to pull up a bench enjoy a good root beer and listen to music.
You need to go to Weatherford TX for the peach festival and to the Malt Shoppe for a peach milkshake.
Loved the tour!! Thanks and keep it up.
We just made another trip to Luckenbach a couple of weeks ago! Bought my first ever cowboy hat!
Great to see the whole episode! This one gets to me where I live. So I gotta draw a hard line. It's not part of the legal requirements and I will say it looks like real good sour mash whiskey. But we don't say Bourbon unless it's from Kentucky. It's out of respect. That's why the most famous by far American whiskey and many other brands refrain from calling their product bourbon. Oh and it's aged in new CHARRED oak barrels. That is required the char gives it the color. Now when I get there like you I'm going to the distillery to get some of that real good stuff before I see the bats. That way I'll be right there with them ''I'm high as a bat caw caw!'' As the famous outlaw troubadour is fond of saying (with thumbs locked together and fingers flapping in majestic flight). Luckenbach will be more than a trip for me. It will be a pilgrimage. Jerry Jeff, Guy, P Nunn, Waylon I love them all. I've seen Willie 14 times. He is our nations greatest living treasure. Now I know where else to trip around in the area. Thanks Chet!
I'm going to Lukenbach Texas with chetty the tripper and the crew!
San Antone. You say it the right way. I had to be corrected by my wife. Now I know :)
Thanks!
Thanks amigo. Keep on Trippin!
9:27 Perfect German! Wow! Greetings from Lower Bavaria
Great video,sheared alot of sheep in the area at one time, thanks!!🤙🤙
Didn’t know they made Old Tunnel into a state park. I explored that tunnel a couple times as a kid in the 80s. Usually on a trip to Luckenbach
I wish there was more thumbs up I can push and I've never said that about any video and I've been a TH-cam fan for many years
The rooster was a nice touch. Right on cue. The Opossum is just playing dead. He is feeling no pain.
The steak knife is to defend against the sanguivores!
Check out Caverns of Sonora. Also check out Navasota for Annie’s country store and the cattle auctions
Dr. ken berry has said buy the meat u can afford. as for the eggs, they need to be pasture.
them eastern people brought that pulled pork crap here, in Texas we eat brisket
Have you been to Plano, Texas?
This must be hick heaven! 🥰🤭🤠❤
How can you eat all that delicious food without gaining 300lbs
HOOP
Sorry bud but I want a burger that I can hold in my hand and not have to open my mouth to it's fullest. Simple and easy my friend!!!!
You guys do something! He’s singing again. Show us some mercy here. 🤫
Waylon, Willie, and other country music legions made Luckenbach Tx. famous... One of my most favorite song is Out of Luckenbach Texas... I always wanted to go there to see the town it's on my bucket list...
LOVE your show but for the love of God can you get some boot-cut jeans??? I can't take yge skinny jean stuffed over the boots. Gracias 😊
Lisa, love you, let's go?
I took that Garrison tour last year. The tour guide mentioned a great story about that bull sculpture on the grounds, but I'm old and can't remember the details. :(
As a born and stayed Texan I can say you and your team are better than TCR and the TX Bucket List. Great entertainment. Have really enjoyed binge watching your channel. Gonna search if you've been to Alpine (went to college there), Marfa (out of whack real estate now for years), or one of my favorite state parks, Enchanted Rock. Wait!...At Sulphur Springs state park down by Lampasas...if you go up thw river there is this super cool waterfall from another creek/river falling into the main. Dang...so much in Texas.
Luckenbach was a lot of fun in the 70's when I was young!
Thanks for this one.
I wish I had a time machine.
Nobody is going to even believe me lol but Hondo crouch is my great grandfather I’m related to him on my mothers fathers side
Are you still on tv? I have been waiting to see that I had episodes recorded but nothing is recording.
This one brought a tear to my eye.
My dad…long gone…was an old fashioned spy from Vietnam era onward. He loved this place and Terlingua. If his life would have been 5 degrees on a different course, he could have been here.
You managed to hit all my favorite places while in the area. Those burgers are super.
going to san antonio river walk, thanks for the great Info
My Mom lived on the Armadillo Ranch!
Unless you're with Waylon and Willie and the boys, it's kind of lonely
