Available tools

Search Austin (search_austin)

Recommended, lowest-price, and rating sorts are available.

Ranking and affiliate links

Some booking links carry affiliate attribution, and Things To Do In Austin may earn a commission from a booking.

No merchant payment, website package, boost, or affiliate relationship buys inclusion or ranking in connector results. Recommended sorting uses keyword relevance, available ratings, and review counts, with title and catalog ID breaking ties. Price and rating sorts use the requested values, with the same neutral tie-breakers. Website promotions are separate from connector discovery.

Published listings and events can be discovered regardless of their website package. Paid website promotions and event submission fees do not purchase sponsored slots in this connector. The connector does not return advertising slots, merchant offer boxes, or promotional announcements.

Scope and data limitations

These tools cannot create or edit listings, access private merchant accounts, send messages, make reservations, or process payments. Only the search arguments or catalog ID provided to the tool are needed; do not include passwords or payment information.

The catalog combines published website listings and events with curated bookable inventory. It is not exhaustive or a live availability service. Event discovery covers up to 300 upcoming or ongoing events within the next twelve months. Prices are advertised starting prices and may exclude fees; ratings may describe the provider rather than the specific activity.

Confirm dates, age rules, group minimums, availability, cancellation terms, and the final total on the organizer or booking page before purchasing. Read our privacy policy for website data practices.

Troubleshooting

  • If connection fails, check that the address ends in /mcp and your client supports Streamable HTTP. Opening that address in a browser returns technical JSON; this page is the human-readable documentation.
  • If a search is empty, try fewer keywords or remove restrictive price, area, or group-size filters. An empty response does not prove an activity is unavailable.
  • If an item is missing, search again for its current ID. Listings may be unpublished or an event may have ended.
  • If prices or links differ, use the provider page as the final source and report the item to us.
