How is Your Service Different?

• Any Address - We pick up and drop off at your home, business, hotel or any airport.
• Better - most rides are non-stop and no sharing in a Nice Car, SUV or Shuttle.
• Flexible - we pick you up on your schedule 24/7. It's also always free to change the date or time if your flight changes.
• Safer - we don't leave you at a bus stop, and all our drivers go through nationwide fingerprint background checks.
• Faster - most rides take half the time, because it's just you in the vehicle. No need to stop and wait everywhere.
• Convenient - Door to Door means no need to arrange or pay for a Taxi or Lyft to get home.
• Affordable - once you add it all up, it's the same price or less than other shared ride shuttles for two or more people, or less than Uber with just one person.

Route Details: Houston to Austin

Whether you’re heading from Montrose or The Heights in Houston to South Congress, Zilker Park, or downtown Austin, this trip covers about 160 miles of varied Texas landscape. Most travelers are University of Texas students catching a flight, business professionals commuting for the day, or weekenders visiting friends. Drive time typically runs 2.5 to 3 hours along the direct interstate corridor, though rush hour through Austin’s “Tech Ridge” or Houston’s Energy Corridor can add 20–30 minutes. You’ll pass Bastrop’s piney woods and the Colorado River near La Grange—a stretch known for sudden fog in winter.

This route sees heavy demand for early-morning departures from Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) and Hobby (HOU), as well as late-night drops into Austin-Bergstrom (AUS). Our drivers monitor live traffic on the main highway and adjust the pickup time if conditions shift—no last-minute surprises. We serve neighborhoods from Upper Kirby to Mueller, matching your door-to-door schedule across both cities.

How long does the Houston-to-Austin ride take?

Under normal traffic, expect about 2.5 to 3 hours from door to door. If you’re leaving Houston in the afternoon or arriving in Austin during SXSW or ACL, allow an extra 30–45 minutes. We track real-time conditions along the route and communicate any changes to your pickup window.

Do you pick up at both Houston airports for this route?

Yes—we serve all Houston-area airports, including IAH and HOU, plus any residential or hotel address in the city. Just tell us your exact location when booking; we’ll arrive at your door in a vehicle suited to your party size. Flight delays are monitored automatically, and your pickup time is adjusted accordingly.

Pricing / Fares to and from Austin

How much does a shuttle cost to Austin TX?

It depends on the addresses you enter, if it's in the middle of the night or early morning, and the number of people. Check rates by clicking the buttons that say "Check Rates" below. There are different options under "Select Service" like "To Airport" or "From Airport" and "One Way" or "Round Trip". Choose the option called "Any Two Addresses 24/7" for non-airport transportation between any two addresses in Texas. Rates are total, not per person. Heading to Austin from Houston?

What are the benefits of using our service?

Door to door shuttle service is included on all our trips. Usually trips in Texas are non-stop in a nicer vehicle. Texas Shuttle can pick you up Dallas, or your home anytime 24/7. We normally take you straight there, which is very different from other companies that leave you at a bus stop in Texas, and stop and wait repeatedly. We also don't pack you in with 8-54 people you don't know.

Does it cost anything to change my reservation?

You can change the date and time of your reservation at no cost. If you don't know the exact address, you can enter the city for now and reserve it, then give us the full address later. If you don't know your flight number landing in Dallas, you can estimate the time and update the flight number and time later.

Our Nicer Vehicles

What type of vehicle will pick me up?

We send a Houston to Austin Shuttle or SUV (4+ passengers) or a nice car (1-3 passengers) anytime and take you to any address in Fort Worth Texas, not just DFW. Our Dallas and Fort Worth vehicles are clean and newer. Most vehicles are luxury and full size. We have Mercedes Sprinter Shuttles, Lincoln Navigators, Lincoln MKZ's, and a variety of other vehicles.
