Liberty News
Leaders meet for ministry-wide prayer
A ministry-wide prayer service was held today, Aug. 14, for Liberty University administration and leaders of Thomas Road Baptist Church and Liberty Christian Academy.
Daniel Henderson, who also teaches prayer, Christian living and church leadership at Liberty University, welcomed everyone to the service in the TRBC sanctuary, held every year before the start of school. Henderson is also Pastor of Prayer and Renewal at Thomas Road Baptist Church.
Along with worship music and Scripture readings, leaders turned their focus to three primary areas: praying for those who are "called by His name" to lead their ministry, praying for all in the ministry to embrace a spirit of humility, prayer and purity, and praying for God to hear, forgive and heal our land and use them for this purpose.

(2019) I recently had some bad car karma and had two vehicles down at the same time!? Kenny Hill helped me out with both within just a few days of each other and both are back on the road. 79 Westfalia needed a clutch cable (and was stuck in second gear) and a 06 Tacoma that needed to a new catalytic convertor to pass inspection. They a great job on both vehicles. Communicated with me daily. Offered options on how to proceed. The estimates were accurate and they returned the vehicles quickly. Very much recommended! (2017) Top notch. They help maintain my 79, air-cooled bus. Everytime it goes to KH its get better and runs smoother. I like that Kenny or Bill always take the time to explain what's needed in layman's terms.
Johnny Davis knows what he's doing. Thanks
Great service, very knowledgeable and did not try to up sell me on issues that were non-critical. Kept me informed throughout the process on what they were fixing and after I let them know my budget they worked with me to identify what needed fixing and what could wait. Will definitely be going back for any other issues I have with my Jetta. Also came in at around a third of what the dealership wanted to charge.
We've had a persistent problem with our Volkswagen for a month and have taken it to a number of different car repair places. Kenny Hill is the first repair place to spend the time and apply the know how to diagnose what the problem is. He charged me far less than he could have for the amount of work that he did and I would bring my car back here in a second. Plus they are very kind and considerate in their communication
I've only taken my car in twice, but both times I felt that they were making honest, thoughtful recommendations- instead of spouting the usual "manufacture recommends" replace this, this and this. I've got an old Prius that I intend to drive into the ground, and I think these are the guys to help me get the most I can out of it before it's toast:)
Kenny Hill's crew did all the work on my Mk 4 (2002) Golf, which now belongs to my son. Now that the free maintenances on my Mk 7 (2015) Golf TDI are over, I'm back with Kenny Hill. Today's visit was for the 50,000 mile scheduled maintenance, which was performed quickly, thoroughly, and at a reasonable price. There was a brief discussion about a malfunction in the seat warmer system (in Texas seat warmers are superfluous, and my Golf doesn't have them) but I was pleased to learn that my brakes are in excellent shape.
Good pricing they know what they're doing
Bill, Kenny and the guys at Kenny Hill Autowerks are always fantastic. No matter what kind of oddball thing I bring to them (last time was a squirrel's nest in the AC), they fix it. I always enjoy visiting with Bill. Kenny always has great ideas for ways to save me money! They are the best. Honestly, one of the reasons I still have my 2002 Bug is because of them - because they've taken such good care of her and because I want to keep coming back.
If you need you aircooled VW serviced, it's one of the few places left in town that will do it. Check them out!
I've been going to Kenny hill for a couple years now and they've always done a great job and have been very straightforward. Kenny also does a great job of explaining issues and taking the time to thoroughly discuss it with you.
Good folks. They take good care of our VW camper.
My 2004 Volkswagen Golf wouldn't start. The engine would turn on and then immediately shut off. A bit of mystery that triple A couldn't answer, so I had them towe it to Kennys shop. I found him through here on Google. It got dropped off late in the afternoon on a Friday and Kenny spent most of Monday morning investigating the problem. He eventually figured out that it was a problem with my keys and the computer. He was super easy to talk to, and made me two new keys and had my car running smooth by Monday afternoon. Didn't break the bank either. As long as I own this car, I'll be taking it back to Kennys shop. If you have a foreign car, I honestly wouldn't look elsewhere. Thanks Kenny!
Fabulous dependable place, have used them for years on our VW's but they also fixed a big problem on my Honda that another place totally messed up with a shoddy repair. Wonderful service and integrity that's hard to find these days.
They exceeded my expectations, and I fully trust them when it comes to the family car.
Even if it is free, I will never go anywhere else again. Kenny, you da man!!
My Audi broke down. I took it to the Audi car dealership. I paid $139 to get a diagnosis. Everything needed to be changed: the thermostat, the purge valve, the motor mounts, the brake pads, etc.. total cost: $4,700. I didn't have the money. I went shopping around to find a better deal. That's how I met Kenny Hill Autoworks. Kenny was the first person I spoke with when I get in the door. He had that kindness and peaceful expression on his face that you can sometimes observe when you speak with yoga masters. I felt I could trust him. He gave me a $3,400 quotation based on the Audi diagnosis (my car was still at the Audi car dealership). I agreed despite the fact that it was $200 more expensive than another shop in town. After I brought him my car, Kenny came back to me with a new estimate: $2,700. The thermostat and the purge valve were fine and didn't need to be changed. He added a state inspection ($30) to the mix, which had already expired. I got my car back in perfect condition two days later. Kenny communicated with me during the entire process. I got three emails and three phone calls with an update on my car. I highly recommend Kenny Hill Autoworks!!! Kenny is someone you can trust.
If you are into a no BS type of mechanic, then Kenny Hill is the one for you. He is fast and efficient, and does NOT try to oversell you. I had a cracked radiator for my 2001 Lexus IS300. Even though Kenny typically deals with German Auto, he was able to take my car in and have it ready the following morning. His prices are reasonable, and he isn't just after your buck. He let me know other issues that were wrong with my car, and that was it. I will certainly come back for all of my auto repairs. Thanks, Kenny!
Kenny Hill is a fine person. I wanted to get Kenny's professional opinion about a customers vehicle that seems to need a transmission and he gladly offered his time. It's wise to have a second opinion when it comes to expensive diagnostics. A lot of car owners are not aware shops communicate with others to cover any angle not thought of. I run a competing business but he did not hesitate to contribute his time in a customers best interest despite he did not have a dime to be made in the deal. Clearly he's in it for the passion and not necessarily the money. I respect him not only as a person but as a professional. Thank you for your time Kenny.
Our Winnebago Rialta (VW Eurovan) broke down outside Austin. Kenny, Bill, and Heath worked hard to get me back on the road just ASAP. Good service at a fair price. These guys know their business and understand the value of good customer service.
The team at Kenny Hill was friendly and helped explain the services my VW needed. From the calls updating me on service status, to text reminders and the car wash they provided, I was thrilled by the service of their experienced team. I am now calling Kenny Hill Auto Werks home for any future service my VW needs.
"Everything was great. Very professional and caring and prices were less than the dealer. The best thing about Kenny Hill is how fast they Get you back in your car. It took one day to do several major things. Other shops I had to leave my car for a week."
When my (lemon) 2003 Passat started leaking gasoline, I called Kenny Hill's Autowerks to schedule an appointment. Not only did they get me in the next day, they quickly fixed the issue even though they were extremely busy. Paul, one of their representatives, continually fed me updates regarding the status of the repair and walked me through the recommended fix. While having one's car fixed is never an enjoyable experience, Kenny Hill's Autowerks made it pretty painless.
Very helpful and went the extra mile (no pun intended)
After looking over my car, they noticed several items that need attention. They recommended how I might proceed and looked up prices for the repairs. There was no pressure. I had the work done and am very happy how improved my drive is! Those guys are very professional and friendly! (I don't even have a VW, but they were ready for the challenge!)
Best VW service
This shop is the best one I have ever taken my beloved aged 1987 Westy to. When I first took it in there were so many problems wit it I couldn't drive it to the grocery store. Now getting it going wasn't quick or cheap, but I took it camping in Big Bend NP in early December, an 8 hr drive. We made it without any serious problems. I did figure out on the trip that the cooling system still had a slow leak, but it was manageable on the trip and the shop fixed it later. Again, these leaks were a tricky problem so it wasnt cheap to fix, but nobody works for free. I was impressed with how they figured out the problem pretty quickly and solved it. For the first time since I have owned it (25 years), there is no leak from the cooling system. An old vanagon is going to have a lot of problems, that are not easy to diagnose nor inexpensive to repair. Its nice to have a shop that I am comfortable can figure out and solve just about any problem with my vehicle. Now I just have to make sure the vehicle is worth the expense and hassle, to me.
High Quality Customer Service
I would recommend Kenny Hill to any VW owner since they are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They spoke at length about all of my issues and always tried to minimize costs.
I went in to have the dash lights fixed on my '70 Ghia Convertible with a switch for a '72 and newer car. I was told that it would be 2-3 days. Kenny took a looked at what I needed and fixed it in 2 hours, including diagnostics, wiring for newer switch and chatting about my recent trip. Kenny, Johnny and Lee have been the best thing that has happened to my Ghia. I told Johnny not to get rid of Kenny and Lee.
Could not be happier!!
I cannot say enough good things about Kenny Hill. I older (2004) Audi TT needed a few routine maintenance items done and they were done quickly, correctly and ahead of the time anticipated to complete the work. VERY reasonably priced and excellent customer service. My car will only go to Kenny Hill for all future needs. Thank you!!
Great Repair Shop
This my second visit and these guys are very knowledgeable. Thanks again guys!
Two cars!? Great job! Love Kenny Hill
I recently had some bad car karma and had two vehicles down at the same time!? Kenny Hill helped me out with both within just a few days of each other and both are back on the road. 79 Westfalia needed a clutch cable (and was stuck in second gear) and a 06 Tacoma that needed to a new catalytic convertor to pass inspection. They a great job on both vehicles. Communicated with me daily. Offered options on how to proceed. The estimates were accurate and they returned the vehicles quickly. Very much recommended!
Fast and professional
Kenny and the team are always friendly, professional and helpful. I have multiple classice VW vehicales and Kenny and the team do most of the owrk for me.
The actual work seems to have been done very well and looks fine. The problem came in trying to communicate with Kenny and later his manager. It was tryingly difficult to try to communicate with the shop and both get work done and to get information on how the work was progressing. Kenny's repeated unannounced trips to Colorado made the communications very disrupted and a bit confusing. My recommendation would be to hire a responsible person to run the office and keep the communications and knowledge flowing. Under the circumstances I think Kenny treated me fairly and the work done was within standard.
fast and honest repair
I arrived in Austin from the Ozarks with major coolant leaks on my camper. I was only scheduled to be there for a day. Henry, and John got the rig in and repaired within the day and at a very reasonable price.
Great place to take my Lotus and Morgan plus8
THE VW Experts
Kenny and his Crew are always the friendly experts who are honest, and get things fixed at a fair price! They have earned my trust.
Kenny Hill Auto Works consistently delivers reasonably priced excellent auto repairs. Appointments are efficiently made and kept on schedule. If parts are needed that are not in stock they are acquired as quickly as possible. Diagnosis of the vehicle are discussed with you and a plan is decided on that focuses on immediate repairs and those can be done later and can be worked into your budget. We are so lucky to have this outstanding service provider in our neighborhood.
I've always received prompt, patient, and professional service, regardless of whatever maintenance and/or repair my Fiat has required. The mechanics are very knowledgeable and technically oriented. The General Manager performs an extensively itemized assessment of your vehicle, and in concert with Kenny, arrives at a coordinated estimate of the cost and time requirements.
Great Auto Shop
I've been taking my cars to Kenny for several years and always find them to be good value and very knowledgeable. Kenny takes the time to explain what they have done and how it works. I'd much rather take my cars here than the dealership service departments.
Top Notch Team
I actually went to Kenny HIll from a recommendation for my VW. Right from the first phone call it was an excellent experience. This team is incredibly knowledgeable about all things VW from various old to new. Post service I feel confident about returning to have other work completed.
Kenny did a great job fixing my car and getting it done in a timely manner!
completed almost all service requested
Good communication about the work to be done and the cost involved. One service item was not completed during the visit, but I received a satisfactory explanation of why.
High Quality Service- Heart to Heart talk!
They really work with me very well! They are honest and explain all the detail information about my VW Bus! I recommend as they re best and high quality of work!
I've know Kenny and Anne for years. They always give me first rate service.
I will never go anywhere else
I reached out to Kenny before going in, as they are about an hour from where I live. I admitted that I was new to the VW world, had a ton of questions, and wanted to learn as much as I could from him. When I arrived, he not only treated me with respect, but walked me through step by step on how to install the parts back on my car, once he was done rebuilding them. He printed our pages out of an old book be pulled from the back room, on how to align my car, while pausing to ask if I had any questions. Again, he respected the fact that I was new and wanted to help educate me, so I could pass this information to my son. I think this is very rare in today's world. I could spend all day at this shop, talking to Kenny and learning from him. I will continue to go to this shop, and will refer him to everyone I know. Thank you Kenny, and I look forward to my next visit.
Fast and friendly!
I called 2 minutes before close of business Friday, and they answered and set me up for first thing Monday morning. On Monday they checked me in quickly and took care of the problem seamlessly and got me out of there in no time. Thank you guys again so much!
Excellent service!
The repair to my car was done promptly and the cost was quite reasonable. Highly recommended!
Brought my Beetle back to life!
This is the only shop in Austin I could find a reasonable mechanic to speak to about electrical issues with my '72 Beetle. Every other VW specialist wanted to sell me a full package re-wire. Instead, Kenny insisted on a methodical step-by-step approach to fix one issue at a time. I am extremely grateful for their professional service and straight forward approach. Everything they did was communicated clearly and priced reasonably. I will gladly return to this shop for any future needs.
High Quality, professional VW classic repairs
Kenny and his team always does a professional job. They are one of the last remaining classic VW repair shops left in Austin.
High quality service, professional and friendly
Kenny's team always does a great job!
Honest work at reasonable prices
I've only taken my car in twice, but both times I felt that they were making honest, thoughtful recommendations- instead of spouting the usual "manufacture recommends" replace this, this and this. I've got an old Prius that I intend to drive into the ground, and I think these are the guys to help me get the most I can out of it before it's toast:)
Good work reasonably priced
Kenny Hill's crew did all the work on my Mk 4 (2002) Golf, which now belongs to my son. Now that the free maintenances on my Mk 7 (2015) Golf TDI are over, I'm back with Kenny Hill. Today's visit was for the 50,000 mile scheduled maintenance, which was performed quickly, thoroughly, and at a reasonable price. There was a brief discussion about a malfunction in the seat warmer system (in Texas seat warmers are superfluous, and my Golf doesn't have them) but I was pleased to learn that my brakes are in excellent shape.
Thorough in advance of a big roadtrip
Kenny was, as usual, easy to get into and provided an excellent service in advance of a month long road trip in my VW GTI. Excellent customer service all around.
Car was repaired as promised. Excellent work done. I would recommend to other VW owners.
Quality outfit that really gets the Austin vibe and knows their stuff!
polite, professional and courteous and informed-Kenny and the team do a knockout job for a fair price. highly recommend!
Friendly, professional service
Kenny was a pleasure. Completed service satisfactorily and on time. Diagnosed an issue with my Audi A7, which was covered under my extended diesel warranty. I would recommend their service highly.
Professional repairs done quickly and correctly.
Great first experience. Loved working by appointment. Shop is clean, staff friendly, and best of all they know their VWs. All work was explained and quoted in advance, no surprises on the bill. Very reasonable rates. Highly recommended.
Extremely friendly and honest automobile shop
Their prices are very reasonable and they were able to solve a clunking noise with my BMW that I have been attempting to deal with for 6 months. After numerous dealership visits and visits to other shops, and being quoted crazy high prices for unnecessary parts from other places, this shop was able to diagnose and solve the problem by simply tighten a bolt. I couldn't be more pleased with such honest work and I will be returning for any future repairs!
Apart from the discrepancy in billing, ( there was a 650.00 charge that had nothing to do with my car), I'm very happy. My VW Tiguan runs great! Mistakes happen. Honestly, the car has never run better. Thank you.
High quality service and great customer service
When my '08 Audi A4 needs work, I love bringing it to Kenny Hill. He goes out of his way to explain my vehicle, what is going on and what is recommended. He has NEVER tried to push unnecessary repairs and is extremely helpful in recommending only the repairs necessary to keep my Audi going for a long time! This is an amazing shop!
Great service. Friendly staff.
Kenny Hill and his staff rule. Fixed my car and kept me updated on the procedure. Call Kenny Hill. You won't be disappointed.
The Most Trustworthy Shop in Austin
We've taken our cars to Kenny and his team for over 30 years, which includes VWs, BMWs, Toyota's and other makes we've owned. If you like competent, trustworthy mechanics providing the best of customer service at a great price, you should go to Kenny!
Excellent Customer Service at Kenny Hill Autoworks
Excellent customer service as always at Kenny Hill Autoworks! The experienced, courteous, and knowledgeable staff at Kenny Hill Autoworks gave my Audi an alignment after they replaced the control arms and engine mount. My car now drives as smoothly as it did when I first bought it. The alignment took an hour longer than expected, but Kenny Hill didn't charge me extra like the local stealerships have. I highly trust and recommend Kenny Hill Autoworks for all your vehicle service needs!
Great service, great people
Kenny and his team provide quality work and friendly service. They take the time to explain what's going on and the best way to make repairs.

Excellent knowledge of older VW vehicles.
Super nice people. Fabulous knowledge of their business. Explanations were specific and understandable. I felt I was honored as a client and definitely only charged for what was absolutely necessary, unless I asked for more. They obviously know and love the business of older vehicles. And if your car needs a lot of work you have to be very patient on getting updates and costs, and the vehicle completed. All of these took way too long.
20+ years of exceptional service!
We've been taking all our vehicles to Kenny for more than 20 years! He always does a fantastic job and I never have to worry about paying for unnecessary work. I trust him implicitly. Recently, I took our Mazda in to one of the local dealers for recall work. In the process, they did an inspection and provided a list of recommended additional maintenance items. I declined them all, and took the list to Kenny. Some of the recommended items Kenny agreed with. Other items on the list he found to be totally unnecessary or easily resolved by less expensive methods. Kenny saved us literally hundreds of dollars in one visit! Good people - good work - totally trustworthy.
The ONLY shop to take your vehicle to for repairs
Always top quality work and wonderful service. Won't even consider taking our vehicles to any other shop. This shop is the best!
Professionalism and accuracy...
I had an issue with my car for a couple of weeks, and someone suggested to take it to Kenny Hill... I called, and Kenny was very friendly, and accommodating. The very next morning he checked my car, and that afternoon, it was all done. My car was fixed, and Kenny also took care of other minor things that he noticed when he was working on it. I really enjoyed the service and professionalism that he showed me.
Friendly and Profesional as Always
Kenny is always very helpful and goes the extra mile to help out. He even looked at my brakes with no additional charge.
Fast and Friendly!
We took our late model VW van to the guys at Kenny Hill for a basic oil change. They were vary friendly and fast considering the more complicated nature of an oil change with these older vehicles. Would definitely recommend them.
Excellent Service -
Kenny Hill Autoworks has serviced my 2014 Tiguan twice, both times it was done quickly and within my budget. Kenny gave me a timeline of parts that would need servicing in the future and I just had the second service. It did not require everything in the original estimate so I saved money and my car is running great!
always done right
great people, great service, great cars. Thank you Kenny!
The best, and trustworthy
I've taken my 2006 Honda Civic several times to Kenny Hill Autoworks to Bill. He is extremely knowledgeable, upfront, honest and professional. I've gone to other auto places and they tell me I need more work done than I actually need. I trust Bill at Kenny Hill and will only be getting my cars looked at here from now on!
Key switch died
Excellent Fast Affordable remedy by happy people who cared.
Make my car great again
kenny hill isn't cheap but they have great communication with customers and know VWs and Audis.
Always a great experience
Bill, Kenny and the guys at Kenny Hill Autoworks are always fantastic. No matter what kind of oddball thing I bring to them (last time was a squirrel's nest in the AC), they fix it. I always enjoy visiting with Bill. Kenny always has great ideas for ways to save me money! They are the best. Honestly, one of the reasons I still have my 2002 Bug is because of them - because they've taken such good care of her and because I want to keep coming back.
Clear and up front advise
My daughter brought in my 2002 diesel golf for a routine oil change. Turns out there was a serious issue with the timing belt. He explained what work was needed, the cost, and why it was necessary to my daughter who was then able to clearly explain it to me. The work was done in a professional and timely manner. Thanks Kenny Hill!
I always appreciate the honest appraisal of work needed on my Bug.
Routine Maintenance and Car Inspection
I took my car in for routine maintenance and overall car inspection. I arrived at 8:15, by 9:30 had been called with an assessment of some additional repairs and all was completed by 4:00. My car also needed state inspection and they took it to a nearby state inspection shop and got this done. Very pleased with the speed and professionalism.
Good work and responsive to requests.
Although they ended up not working on my car, they were professional and extremely helpful in diagnosing the problem with my A/C compressor. Definitely will return if need work done!
Awesome people.
Really nice folks. Great work on my Eurovan. Trustworthy and on time.
Great experience over-all. Had some issues with parts arriving on time but the loaner car helped ease the pain. Kenny kept me posted on the status of the repairs and took the time to show me what the issues were. A trustworthy mechanic is a good person to know.
Always prompt, courteous, and a good source of information!
Fast, professional, friendly service.
Got an oil change and a base-line diagnostic on my daughter's 2012 Jetta today. Great service, reasonable prices and Kenny was easy to deal with and friendly. I'm a lifer from this point on.
Kenny truly knows his VWs. He shares his experience in a manner in which those aficionados, such as myself, that have VWs but do not have the mechanical background, can understand his language. My only concern is the delay in repair time. Sadly, each time my Vanagon goes in to be worked on I don't get it back for months. Besides the uncertainty of time and money, I think Kenny Hill Autowerks has high quality standards, knowledge, and experience.
They got me in and out fast, even though I arrived near Noon. They took the time to explain exactly what was wrong with my Audi and answered all of my questions. Great guys and great service. I highly recommend them.
Thanks, YET AGAIN!! Next, the window riser on the Driver's Side.... AT LAST.....
Work was well done, and the shop made sure to find all the issues present. Found an oil leak after driving it awhile, so that will have to be addressed, but I expect Kenny to deal with it quickly. I would use them again.
Very courteous and efficient service! Took my car in the morning, and they were able to get work done by the time I needed it for an afternoon appointment. I was provided a ride back to my SW Austin home by a very courteous driver. Formerly of 'Bluebonnet Toyota' next door, Toyota mechanic Chuck serviced car thoroughly as he did for years (So glad Chuck is now at Kenny Hill!), and the Kenny Hill folks called me at home when my car was ready; additionally, gave me the total amount of money that would be owed upon pickup. Clean, courteous, and efficient, and I was very pleased...
Fabulous! Kenny went above and beyond to repair my car. I needed new brakes. The repair was completed timely and the brakes work great! But in addition, my bumper had been damaged when I got stuck on a curb stop in a parking lot. Kenny was able to re-attach my bumper and make my car look 100% better. Thanks so much!
New ball joints and muffler / exhaust for the Hill Country Rambler (air-cooled Westfalia). Kenny and the gang are super nice, take the time to explain the problem, and got it done as estimated. Pretty sweet!
always the best. kind and senstive and thorough.
This time I took my Nissan Versa in for a check-up. As usual I had a fantastic experience at Kenny Hill. They always go above and beyond, charge a fair price and treat us like part of the Kenny Hill family. I couldn't recommend them more highly.
Bill and everyone at Kenny Hill are always so nice and easy deal with. They're up front and honest about all the work that needs done and will quote you over the phone so you don't have a surprise when you pick up your car. I will never go to anyone else to repair my VW.
Always mindful service
excellent communication and workmanship
Kenny, his wife, and team were great!
Worked closely with me to locate and fix a problem with my Evap system. Kept me apprised of issues daily and ultimately solved the problem.
Kenny & the gentlemen have been taking care of my already-aging Volkswagen for the entire decade (plus a little) that I've lived in Austin. Thanks so much!
Great service. Work performed as requested, and on scheduled. I'm always happy with the service there.
I went in for an estimated to see what was wrong with my 9 yr old beetle convertible. I received a thorough evaluation and have made an appointment to have the repairs done
The attention to customer and quality of work is unsurpassed in my experience.
Great experience, all around.
They are fabulous! Professional& thorough....keep you up to date with car repairs.
Excellent customer service. Knowledgable mechanics.
Good job guys and the recommendations are right on the mark.
I was very impressed by the helpfulness of their staff. At initial visit they (Kenny) came out to give me an initial look at my 1979 VW Transporter. He looked around, inside, outside and under the car. No fee or charges ! I had them do an inspection of it and they provided me with a professional report of their findings and recommendations. Unfortunately the vehicle needed to be shipped to Los Angeles, and they gave me references for companies specialized in classic VW's. Definitely a great experience, and would recommend it to anyone !
Friendly, well informed expert mechanics and technicians.
Sustained excellent service !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent! THANKS!!
Greatly appreciate the extra time the folks at Kenny Hill took to fully investigate and explain the problem with my VW Beetle. The staff was very friendly.
I have brought my VW to Kenny Hill Autoworks for years. We have always received the best service. They have always gone above and beyond to help us. I am so thankful for Kenny Hill Autoworks.
My car died after a meeting. I can always count on Kenny and the crew at Kenny Hill Autoworks to save the day. Not only did they fix the problem, they got me all up to date on my car maintenance...and, filled up all my tires with air. As a busy mom, I know Kenny's got my back to make sure my car is safe as I'm driving all over Austin.
Kenny Hill and his crew have always done a great job with my VW. I have used them for years. Great work. Very trustworthy.
I have taken my Audi to Kenny Hill Autoworks twice; one year ago, and then again last week.
always great service, every time
I took my 85 Vanagon in May to get ready for a summer road trip of the Southwest. Initially, Kenny gave me a quote and time frame that seemed reasonable. Four months later and 30% more money than the estimate I finally got the camper back. While I was disappointed that I could not take my road trip and it cost more than I budgeted, I will say that Kenny was exceptionally professional, informative, and just plain genuine throughout those months. I have only had the VW back two days, but I am very pleased so far. Thank you, Kenny.
Very helpful and credible. Feel good about letting them service my car.
Excellent service. A joy to deal with them.
Excellent service from the moment you schedule an appointment until your service is completed !!!! Highly professional service from a simple oil change to major auto repair .
Kenny and his staff take care of my 1972 VW Bus. It runs like a champ and Kenny never stops surprising me by finding parts for it. It is always a pleasure dealing with Kenny Hill and everyone with his shop.
Did an excellent job of diagnosing my issues, communicating the results, and fixing them in a timely manner.
good communication
Always prompt service and don't try to up-sell!
As always, Kenny and Bill provide trustworthy and efficient service as well as a pleasant atmosphere in which to wait. Thanks again guys!
Fantastic. Kenny is the real deal. Another shop in town took 6 weeks to diagnose what took Autoworks maybe 6 hours. Kenny is no b.s., patient and extremely knowledgeable. Only wish I had found them first. I'll recommend to everyone.
Kenny Hill is one of the best mechanics I've ever been to. He not only fixed a very obscure and strange problem with my car that I doubt anyone else could have figured out, he took the time to explain everything to me and to make sure that I understood what work was being done and why. As well, I appreciated that he checked everything else on the car and let me know it was time for my next inspections and that he could take care of it. Superb customer service all around! And a great mechanic! It's rare to find both these days.
Kenny Hill Autoworks always does such an amazing job when I bring my car in. I have a Audi A4, 6-speed and Kenny Hill Autoworks replaced the clutch, changed the oil, and washed the car; I'm so happy with their engine work, my car runs as smoothly now as when I first bought it five years ago. They have great customer service as well and explain all the details so I feel comfortable. I highly recommend their services.

Honest service. Quick turn around. Kenny very helpful and friendly.
Kenny, Bill and the guys were great as aleays
This is going on Yelp later today.
They took care of me and my car in a timely manner. They even took my car off site to get it inspected for me.
Thank You. Quick turn-around!
Consistent high quality service, performance and reliability.
I can always rely on Kenny and his team in doing the required work and providing me an assessment of my vehicle quickly and at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend him as a trusted and qualified mechanic.
Very honest and reliable. Twice Kenny has saved me from spending money I didn't need to that two different VW dealerships said I needed. I recommend if you ever have VW recommend something say later and go to Kenny to make sure it really needs fixed. My faith in dealerships right now is zero I don't trust them. That is all.
Great experience all around. Quick turn-around. Very fair pricing. Kenny is my go-to-guy for all things car maint. related.
You guys are amazing! Thank you!
I have been going to Kenny Hill for my 2004 Beetle since I got it. This is also where the previous owner took the car, so they have all the records. I find Kenny and the rest of the staff to be trustworthy and very nice people. They are thorough in checking out the car at scheduled oil changes, and they don't try to scare me into unnecessary repairs. When my car wasn't ready on the weekend, Kenny let me borrow his car. I highly recommend this shop for your VW.
Kenny and his crew are very Knowledgeable about air cooled VW. Had brakes done along with some other small items fixed on 74 bug. Work took a little longer than expected but that was because of parts not showing up on time. Kenny took it upon himself to try and fine tune the carb. Car is now running like a top. Would recommend Kenny Hill to anyone with a VW,
These guys where awesome. My car broke down on the way to start my vacation. I had to sleep in the car and got toyed around all morning till I called these guys. Awesome ppl and a great staff. If I lived closer they would be my mechanic all the time.
The Technicians at Kenny Hill Autoworks are always attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them for any car service that you may need or want.
Phenomenal. If you own an Audi/VW there is no other place to go. Great, friendly staff (Anne Hill is a saint) that got me in and out in no time. There was no need to make sure they got everything right because they use manufacturer recommended parts. Plus, you can walk 50 ft. and grab some East Side Kings while you wait.
Extraordinary service. Professional, courteous and proficient from the time you walk in the door until you leave.
The guys at Kenny Hill are ALWAYS the best! We love them!
As always the boys at Kenny Hill are awesome!
I have finally found a repair shop I can trust !!!! Professional yet personal in every way !!!!
Kenny Hill took care of my VW's way back in the '70s and he was my first pick when I found myself back in Austin in need of a mechanic. The whole team is customer service oriented, efficient and knowledgable. They were able to find parts for my '81 Vanagon and had it fixed the same day. Thanks for being here for me.
I picked this place off the internet based on its high reviews and I completely agree. I brought in my Volkswagen Tiguan to do a maintenance service check on my car. They got me in pretty quickly, fair price, and the best customer service. Incredibly friendly and attentive. During the service they called me three times, 1st to tell me they were starting on my car, 2nd to tell me what they found and what it needed, and 3rd when it was ready. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone I know with a Volkswagen.
Good work done by good folks.
Honest, trustworthy, reliable, awesome! The intercooler and mount needed to be replaced in my Jetta TDI. My car was finished by 4pm, same day and I saved $200 by using Kenny Hill instead of VW dealership. They always have time to explain what the issue is and pay attention to details. This is my second service experience with them and since I love my car, I'm looking forward to a long, mechanically-sound future with Kenny and Bill.
I have a '72 Vw van that only Kenny Hill's Autowerks touches. I love how Kenny explains how and why certain work was done or needed. He draws pictures, pulls out diagrams and demonstrates. He does not realize I don't have a clue to what he is talking about but I feel my vehicle is in the best hands.
Hi guys,
Kenny and his team were nothing but fast, courteous, and informative.
I always get amazing service at Kenny Hill Autowerks. Friendly and super helpful. Kenny reviewed my estimate from the dealership and told me the truth about what I really needed to do to my car and saved me $1,500!
Fast, friendly, efficient service. Job well done and recommendations for future service with explanation of the service and what to 'keep an eye on'.
The best experience I have had dealing with car repair. Staff was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the older VW. The repairs were done on time and with in quoted cost. Did not feel pressure to have add work done, list of items that need repair were provide and an estimate of cost. Would recommend Kenny's to anybody with an older VW.
Kenny Hill Autowerks did a fantastic job fixing my Audi. Their knowledgeable and courteous staff put my mind at ease during the process. I was recommended to them by a friend and will definitely bring my car back to Kenny Hill's for any further services and/or repairs.
Great people, great service.
Passat was running rough, check engine light on. Made an appointment. They analyzed the problem, called to get approval and fixed the car within half a day. Again great service and friendly personnel and owners.
I went in to have my 2000 Toyota 4Runner serviced and an acceleration problem checked. Kenny and his team called me by mid morning to tell me what the problem was and I had my car back before the end of the day, problem free.
Scheduled service with Kenny. Prompt and done right. Cost as provided in estimate. I can rely on Kenny to suggest and provide the right service for my VW's. I am confident the work is done right.
Kenny Hill is my go-to when I have a problem with my car. They are friendly, reliable, efficient and reasonably priced!
I have been taking my VW Jetta to Kenny Hill since I bought it. They were recommended by another Jetta owner. They have surpassed the recommendation. I couldn't be happier with the services! Thank you!
Old cars (63 VW) are always a continuing lesson in little fixes. Conversion from 6 to 12 volt system (partial replacements due to expenses) last January has left little fixups later on. Wiper motor is the latest problem. We are working on it as finances allow. This fixed things for now but will probably have to replace the 6v motor for a 12v one soon. Rainy weather is finally upon us.
excellent as always, thanks very much!! such a pleasure to interact with y'all, that is highly appreciated!
SUPERB. No other description.
Always a good experience with Kenny. We drive in from WAY out of town because we know we can trust him with our VW diesel.
Kenny made sure I understood all of my options and worked with me to find the most cost-effective and best lasting solution to my issue.
Thank again Kenny for helping me out with your fast service.
They finished the work in less time and at a lower cost than I expected. These guys are great and customer-oriented. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
SUPERB service and performance, as usual!! What can I say?!!
Fast and fair company. Kenny was extremely helpful and obviously an expert in his field. Highly recommended!
After evaluation of the problems, Kenny gave an understandable explanation of what needed to be done and why. When asked to give a priority rating of repairs, again gave a good reason of what to do first and what could wait until a future date. Price estimate given and repairs were done on time and at that price, about 1 week ago. We are very satisfied with the workmanship. We recently acquired a volkswagen and would use Kenny again for work to be done.
Very good. I've been told to get my CV boots replace for the past 40,000 mile. Start loosing confidence in my car and finally got it done. What a difference it made, as soon as I pulled my car out it I noticed the stiffness like it was when the car was brand new. Another big plus is the bill was dead on from the estimate.
Kenny Hill took the time to listen to my concern, thoroughly check out my car, explain the repair, and showed me the broken parts that he replaced afterwards. I appreciate good customer service.
Amazing!! In and out quality service!! Was going through turmoil with my 04 TT and they took one look at it and fixed it. Couldn't be happier.
I think you're over priced! But, the work is good...
Kenny and his team are craftsmen. I appreciate their love for my old Volkswagen. They would rather do it right than just "get it done." I trust them and that is hard to find these days!
Kenny and his crew fixed our 1979 VW Transporter. They did a great job diagnosing and solving the problem. We really appreciate their work.
I dropped in late last Friday afternoon (without an appointment). They accommodated me, and got my oil change done in no time. Bill was very friendly and helpful and I got to talk cycling with Kenny as I waited. Great shop - too few of these types of businesses around in Austin these days.
Quick last minute oil change before needing the car for the weekend. They called when it was ready, asked if I needed additional work. Since I needed the car, even though there were things to do, they buttoned it up and I was able to have it late Friday afternoon after just dropping it off a few hours before. Excellent!
Just had our third visit to Kenny Hill with our 2001 Cabrio. Each experience was professional and comprehensive. Issues ranged from replacing a sideview mirror to solving a "check engine" problem and oil light issue. Kenny and his staff find the problems and offer solutions that are explained in detail. They're trustworthy and competent.
I love Kenny Hill Auto Werks. Kenny and team are super helpful and they get the work done quickly. More importantly, you know they are taking great care of your car for the best price.
Always great!
I used to live in Austin and took my car to Kenny Hill. I am visiting from New Orleans and had car trouble, so I knew where to go. They got me put back together for the weekend, but found some additional issues. I'm taking it in Monday for the additional work. Frankly, I'm glad this happened here, because I trust Kenny Hill more than the guys in New Orleans.
Great folks, excellent service! Kenny sincerely cares about me having the best experience with my vehicle and his team.
Great Service.
I have nothing but the best to say about them. They listen to what i wanted to do, checked out my 74 VW and then made their recommendations, back up buy the facts of what they had found. I had my engine replaced along with other work. Will gladly take the Bug back for more work when the time comes.
all i can say is... Wow!
I took my car to Kenny to troubleshoot a brake problem. Kenny called me within a couple of hours with the diagnosis and had the car repaired by the next day. It would have been completed sooner but a part had to be ordered for the work.
As always, Kenny, Bill and the rest are fantastic!
Great service, incredibly nice people. Everything done to my Eos was explained in detail.
Service was great. I actually got my card back quicker than I anticipated which I appreciated since it's difficult for me to catch a ride back to the shop. I also appreciate the fact that the lobby is clean and pleasant. You folks are great.
You guys always do a great job.
Kenny Hill and his mechanics are great. He really knows VWs and how to keep them in good shape. He's corrected several issues, big and little ones, resulting from other mechanics not understanding the nuances of my Passat. I wish I'd found this shop years ago. He likes to work by appointment but has given me great service when I've had to drop in, too. Highly recommended.
Car was serviced promptly. The car was even cleaned. I was offered a ride home/
Always great service.
Had a great experience at Kenny! These guys know exactly what they are talking about when it comes to anything Volkswagen. I came in with a check engine light on and within a few hours they were able to tell me exactly what was wrong. The best thing about Kenny and his staff is that they provide you with honest advise and they tell you exactly how much the repairs are going to be. Keep it up guys!
Wow! Excellent, fast, courteous and bang-on right!
Quick, friendly, quality service every time. I'm a dedicated Kenny Hill customer!
I took my Toyota 4Runner in for scheduled 150K maintenance. I used the early drop off process which was easy to use. I was pleased by the one day turnaround in completing the work. I like working with Kenny Hill because I trust their work.
As always, these guys are the best!
I had a minor "emergency" - a tail light out. I called and they got me in immediately (squeezed me in during a booked schedule). Not only that, but they got me finished very quickly so I could make my next appointment on time
I've known Kenny & Anne Hill for 5+ years and been to their shop multiple times if there was anything wrong with my VW's or I needed just an oil change.
I had my vehicle in for routine maintenance. Kenny completed the work as promised within the day.
Wipers went out during rain. Fast, accurate and pleasant emergency trip to the VW Doctor! Happy New Year's Eve.... Whew!
My car runs great! Truly great service and appreciation for old VWs.
this my my first time at this shop- I was so very comfortable and left feeling my problem was resolved professionally and honestly. top notch service even during the insane busy holiday season.
I just love y'all. Friendly, competent, personal, and you care about what I want and need, not what you think you can do for me.
I love the knowledge and capability that Kenny brings to our van. I do wish I'd get more frequent updates about the status of the repair.
Betsy Beetle is better than ever! Thanks guys!
My '63 Bug was in for needed engine work. If I parse the expense over the past 15 or so years since the last work was done on the engine, it was pretty danged cheap! THANKS for a great job, yet again.
Got my brakes done. Dropped off the car in the morning, it was done that afternoon. Perfect
Kenny was able to diagnose and correct on his fist attempt a problem my previous mechanic introduced, and which a third mechanic could not correct. I wish I had been taking my 99 Passat to Kenny all along.
Kenny Hill and his crew were extremely helpful in fixing my car when the check engine light went on. The late night drop off made it convenient for my husband and I to drop off the car and then it was ready the next day. The mechanics offered many different options and let me choose the one that was best for me.
Always reay to diagnose and fix major and minor defects. To help finding the most economic way.
I took my car to Kenny Hill to check on an oil leak and a couple of strange rattles. Kenny and his team found what they believe was the rattle and repaired that, and replaced the cars valve gaskets which were the cause of the oil leak.
I appreciated how fast the guys worked on identifying the problems with my newly purchased used VW Rabbit. They quoted me a price for labor and parts and I was blown away as the price was better than I was expecting!
Can't say enough about the service and hospitality at Kenny HIll Auto Werks. Professionalism with a smile from start to finish.
Kenny, Bill and crew always do a great job with my jetta in a timely manner...best mechanic in Austin by far...thanks guys.
I have been taking my '02 Jetta to Kenny Hill for the past 8 years and have never been disappointed with the service that I have received. The staff has always been extremely helpful and friendly and have never hesitated to take the time to explain the work that was performed, where it was done and the parts that were replaced. I have trusted my car to Kenny Hill and will continue to do so until I no longer own the vehicle. They are fair, honest and very willing to help get your car back on the road!
Finally our 69 Beetle is running great. Kenny and his crew really took their time and made sure everything was fixed properly. We will definitely have our car serviced here in the future.
I took my 2000 Toyota 4Runner to Kenny to get my 5K maintenance done and troubleshoot an annoying squeak in the front end. The work was done quickly and to my satisfaction, including finding the squeak and eliminating the squeak.
The ONLY place to trust with my 63 Bug. PERIOD!
Kenny and his team did a great job. Provided me a complete inspection of the vehicle as part of the routine maintenance. Kenny always makes me feel comfortable that I am getting the right work done when I leave the car.
Kenny is very knowledgeable about my 1991 VW. He was generous with his time- explaining repairs, troubleshooting problems, etc. The repairs were done correctly and without undue cost.
Kenny was exceptionally helpful in finding the best solution for replacing the transmission on my 2000 Lexus. The car is driving beautifully and I appreciate his time and patience.
Kenny Hill and his staff are dependable, experienced, creative, and professional. They go above and beyond and investigate all possibilities before diagnosing the problem. They saved me literally thousands of dollars that the Subaru dealership had quoted me - and they had detailed cleaned my car when I came to pick it up a couple days later. Amazing customer service. They're my new source for auto repair and maintenance.
Kenny and his staff were all you would hope for in a local car repair center. They know and love VW's. They are polite and priced fairly for the work. They complete the work in a timely manner and leave the customer with knowledge about the repairs.
Kenny and his staff are what you are looking for in car care.
The team at Kenny Hill was friendly and helped explain the services my VW needed. From the calls updating me on service status, to text reminders and the car wash they provided, I was thrilled by the service of their experienced team. I am now calling Kenny Hill Auto Werks home for any future service my VW needs.
Excellent and fast repairs. Found problem with exhaust system and I had it repaired immediately. Don't like exhaust in cab. YEA!
We have been going to Kenny Hill's Auto for 4 years now! We have an audi all road that we will only take to Kenny for service. The staff is always friendly and funny. They are trustworthy and will take good care of you.
In and out quickly and kindly. The car is up and running
I called Kenny in a panic, as my dealer quoted me a large sum for some work to be done which I knew was too high. Kenny said they could likely complete the service for half the price. I brought my car in Monday and it was done on Wednesday afternoon. It drives perfectly and the team at Kenny Hill did it all with such a smile. Great team and great guys! I will bring my car back every time.
Betsy Beetle is feeling fine! Thanks guys!
The folks at Kenny's shop are very friendly and provide exceptional service. I recommend them to all my friends. Great long time Austin shop.
Was beginning to have 'sticky' accellerator and tuning had slipped. Took in and it was ready the next day! Purrs now. So nice!
I had taken my Audi to the service department at the Audi dealership many times, and they were never able to diagnose or fix the issue. Kenny Hill was able to fix my car problems quickly, and at a very reasonable price. If you're tired of getting ripped off at the dealerships, come to Kenny Hill. Better service at a better price.
I would like to thank Kenny Hill's Auto Werks for being honest in addressing all the problems with my vehicle. There were problems I did not know about and Kenny Hill took the time to explain in detail each problem, cost, and time to prepare. The most important thing you all need to know is that I would highly recommend my family and friends to this auto shop because they take time to ensure you understand what needs to be fix on your vehicle. Thanks Mr. Hill.
Kenny Hill's is always great. They keep you informed, do the work you contract for, do it very well and don't over charge.
Kenny Hill is wonderful to work with. He always takes the time to help you understand what repairs should be done to your vehicle, the length of time the car will be in the shop and how much it will cost. Everything done was highly professional, timely and right on for cost. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my car!
Kenny and the staff I dealt with were very courteous and helpful. The brake check was thorough.
Superb. What more can I say? Fast, efficient, works great,.... All of the above.
Auto Werks performed the scheduled work when requested and when additional work was found to be needed, performed that work the same day. They also provided much needed transportation to and from their site while the working was being performed. Thanks!
As always, Kenny Hill's is quick, inexpensive and honest. I brought my car in with a completely dead battery, asked Kenny to go ahead and give it a tune-up and change the oil as well. They called me to say that I didn't need a tune-up yet and that the oil was good for a couple thousand more miles. Had I taken the car to the dealer, I would have walked away with an expensive, unnecessary tune-up and oil-change.
I had my Toyota 4Runner in for routine maintenance and to prepare it for state inspection. I was satisfied with my service and will bring it back to Kenny Hill in the future.
Great service, very kind and personable, yet professional. I really appreciated the honesty and the good work. I was told I would have to be patient by a friend who recommended Kenny; well, Kenny was patient with me and I was more than pleased. Thanks!
Kenny has been a joy to work with everytime I've seen him. With a finicky Eurovan, it has been more often than I'd hope, but at least I know I can count on him to patiently and kindly help us understand what's going on with our van. Also, his willingness to drive across town to shuttle me and my 3 kids or to diagnose a mysteriously dead van is greatly appreciated!
Love these guys! They take time to explain things to you rather than just giving you a bunch of auto talk! I felt like a person and not just a number! Thank you for your kindness, smile, and great care of my car!!! Hope I can get another 100,000 out of her!!!
Kenny is one of the nicest most informative car mechanics I have ever met. He was there any time I came in, and spoke several times over the phone providing much information and never once pressuring me for any sort of sale.
Can always count on Kenny to give good, honest work. Wouldn't take the vw anywhere else
My 63VW lost power exiting a parking lot. Charged battery overnight but still would not turn over. Had it towed to KennyHill's expecting the worst. Only two connectors were replaced - quickly - and it runs beautifully again. THANKS!!!!!
It was great! I especially appreciate my car being fixed for inspection and then getting the inspection done. Thanks!
You can rely on Kenny Hill and his staff to give you feedback on what your car needs to run in its most perfect condition. The distinction to be made here is they are a wealth of knowledge. You might not fix everything they suggest you do, but it is good to know you can depend on them to identify all areas for improvement and of course they will insist you repair any immediate needs.
Recently my 64 VW coasted to a halt going uphill on an intersection flyover in South Austin. Not good. Had it towed to Kenny Hill VW on a Thursday night after 11:00 pm and was contacted by them the next morning with a status report as it's battery charged. Monday morning He called to tell me that it just needed new points and runs like it did before I brought it in. Superb service and affordable. That is why my first choice is always Kenny Hill VW!! Never disappoints me.
I appreciate the prompt and thorough service. And I particularly appreciate having the list of all of the issues on the car that need attention at some point while only addressing the immediate needs to keep the car going.
Excellent, fast and phenomenal work, as usual, even with a short notice. THANK YOU!!
I had a blinking check engine light on and Kenny Hill's got my car on a Monday morning and I was able to pick it up by 4pm the same day. Luckily it was coil and was not anything major. The way my car was acting it seemed like it was going to be major repair and money. I trust them to be honest and they are extremely fast so you dont have the added expense of a rental car.
I have taken my Passat to Kenny HIll twice now. I feel that the pricing is fair and Kenny is very honest! They are always quick to reply too. I will be back. Thanks.
Very helpful with everything that needed to get done.
Nice people and good service
Have taken my 2003 Jetta Wagon here for routine service and a few repairs. In every interaction the team has been friendly and knowledgeable. I feel confident the work is top notch. One time I dropped my debit card in the parking lot and they rescued it and called me - even stayed after hours to meet me so I could retrieve it. Bring your V-dub here - they're good people.
Kenny Hill Autowerks is truly a wonderful business. I have been going there for a number of years now. They are extremly honest and always have my best interest in mind. Kenny and his team take such good care of me and my VW. I am on my second passat and will take them there as long as I have them. Thanks also for always doing your best to keep my repairs down to minimum.
They are always polite, reasonably priced and provide a detailed explanation of the needed service. I greatly appreciate they have car service to / from the shop. Also, my car is always supper clean!
Everything was great. Very professional and caring and prices were
I took my 2002 Audi TT in for some minor repairs and was pleasantly surprised at the personal and very competent service I received. The work was done in a timely manner and the cost came in below what I thought it would. I recommend Kenny Hill for anyone wanting service or repair on their vehicle.

Took us on a moments notice. Kenny repaired the car exactly as he said he would to a problem exactly as he described it, returned it exactly when he said he would, and charged exactly what he said he would. Plus told us of two other concerns of which we were not aware that he would be happy to repair now or later. Steve

Eve Nealon
Class of 2011
Major/Minor: International Studies
I grew up in a small town in Virginia. I knew before I entered college that I wanted to pursue an international studies major with a focus on Asia, and in specific Japan.
Washington College was able to cater to both of these wishes. My freshman year I was lucky enough to be able to participate in both the Yale Model U.N., which was an amazing experience, and the Senatorial Colloquy, an equally eye-opening experience. The second semester of my sophomore year I was able to go to Japan and study for the spring summer semester at Meiji Gakuin University, right in the heart of Tokyo. I will never forget the time I spent in Tokyo, and I really fell in love with that city. I hope to go back to Japan sometime in the near future, both to learn more and hopefully to work. My junior year has been a bit of a transition period. However, I am looking much forward to my senior year and my thesis (funny thing, looking forward to a thesis), which I am hoping will be on Buddhism and its effect on politics in various countries in the region. I have really enjoyed my time at Washington College. It's a wonderful school with wonderful teachers and staff, and it has given me opportunities I would never have experienced otherwise.
Campus Involvement
- Major: International Studies
- Concentrations: East Asian Concentration and Global Business Concentration
- Language: Intermediate Japanese
- Study Abroad: Meiji Gakuin University, Tokyo, Japan
- Pending Internships: Washington D.C.
Future plans? I would like to go into government work. My ultimate goal would be the NSC or the State Department, but these are very competitive fields. I would also love to take any experience I might get from an internship with Senator Warner and work on Capital Hill as a Senators aid. The nice thing about an International Studies major is that you have unlimited opportunities available to you after graduation. I look forward to seeing where my career will lead me.

Ozzy Osbourne is battling his demons once again after suffering a drug and alcohol relapse.
The rock legend has famously battled substance abuse issues throughout his life, but tackled his addictions in rehab in 2003.
Osbourne has now admitted to fans that he fell off the wagon 18 months ago, but has been sober for the last 44 days.
In a post on his official Facebook.com page he writes, "For the last year and a half I have been drinking and taking drugs. I was in a very dark place and was an a— to the people I love most, my family. However, I am happy to say that I am now 44 days sober."
The Black Sabbath front man also tackles persistent speculation that his marriage to Sharon Osbourne is on the rocks, adding, "Just to set the record straight, Sharon and I are not divorcing. I'm just trying to be a better person. I would like to apologize to Sharon, my family, my friends and my band mates for my insane behavior during this period … and my fans. God bless, Ozzy."
The admission comes days before Black Sabbath is set to begin a worldwide tour in Auckland, New Zealand, on April 20.

It's unlikely but certainly possible that we may have sent you a different butter accidentally labeled as the Murumuru - that might be why it was different in texture and aroma from what you expected for Murumuru Butter. At your earlier convenience, would you please call us toll free at (800) 340-0080 or (203) 702-2500 so that we assist you further. Thanks very much.
"Hope to do business with you again in the future! You have a wonderfully informative Web site! Thanks!"

Cancer treatment
Research in my lab spans a range of topics centering on how genes are turned on or off, and the role that certain genes play in various human diseases, in particular cancer. Towards this goal, my lab has been performing a series of large-scale genetic screens in which RNA interference (RNAi) technology is used to systematically turn off every gene in the genome, and then the resulting effect on the cell is determined using a biological assay. We have used such screens to identify new genes that either promote cancer (oncogenes) or protect cells from cancer (tumor suppressor genes), as well as new genes that promote or inhibit metastasis. My lab is also using genome-wide RNAi screens to uncover the mechanisms by which individual oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are turned on or off, and the mechanisms by which certain chemotherapeutic drugs kill cancer cells. The genes and cellular pathways revealed by these screens represent potentially powerful new targets for the development of drugs to treat cancer.

Here are nine days of exploration in some of the most memorable (and oldest) cities in North America. Starting in New York, travel north to the must-see city of Montreal. Roam the old town or climb Mount Royal for staggering views of the city. Then it's back south again through serene Acadia National Park and finally on to historic Boston to roam cobblestone streets, explore some of its world-class museums (like the Isabella Stewart Gardner!), and eat clam chowder. Make new memories in some very old places.
What's Included
Orientations to Montreal and Boston. Entrance to Acadia NP. Sunrise at Cadillac Mountain. Free time in Montreal, Acadia NP, and Boston. All transportation between destinations and to/from included activities.
Sightsee in the Big Apple, experience the vibrant culture of Montreal, catch the sunrise in Acadia NP, wander along the Freedom Trail in Boston
Dossier Disclaimer
The information in this trip details document has been compiled with care and is provided in good faith. However it is subject to change, and does not form part of the contract between the client and the operator. The itinerary featured is correct at time of printing. It may differ slightly to the one in the brochure. Occasionally our itineraries change as we make improvements that stem from past travellers, comments and our own research. Sometimes it can be a small change like adding an extra meal along the itinerary. Sometimes the change may result in us altering the tour for the coming year. Ultimately, our goal is to provide you with the most rewarding experience. Please note that our brochure is usually released in November each year. If you have booked from the previous brochure you may find there have been some changes to the itinerary.
VERY IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you print a final copy of your Trip Details to review a couple of days prior to travel, in case there have been changes that affect your plans.
Itinerary Disclaimer
While it is our intention to adhere to the route described below, there is a certain amount of flexibility built into the itinerary and on occasion it may be necessary, or desirable to make alterations. The itinerary is brief, as we never know exactly where our journey will take us. Due to our style of travel and the regions we visit, travel can be unpredictable. The Trip Details document is a general guide to the tour and region and any mention of specific destinations or wildlife is by no means a guarantee that they will be visited or encountered. Aboard expedition trips visits to research stations depend on final permission.
Additionally, any travel times listed are approximations only and subject to vary due to local circumstances.
Important Notes
In order to cover the vast distance in North America to be able to visit several different parks and cities along our trip, we will have a couple of long driving days.
All walks and hikes proposed by our CEO will be easy to moderate level. You may choose to participate or not, but exploring our national parks on foot is part of our way of travelling. It's a healthy way to discover North America's beauty and landscape.
Please note that the legal drinking age in the United States is 21 and in Canada, 19 (with Alberta and Quebec at 18). Many bars and clubs will ask for ID at the door, therefore listening to live music in certain bars or spending a night out in Las Vegas or New Orleans is not possible when you are under the legal age, even if you don't plan on consuming alcohol. Drinking laws in both countries are strictly enforced and our CEOs are unable to help those under age obtain alcohol of any kind.
While this should not stop those under legal drinking age from booking a tour, it is important to note that if a traveller is under-age there are certain optional nighttime activities that they may not legally be able to participate in. When trying to book the right trip, we recommend that travellers under legal drinking age take this into consideration when booking a tour that visits several big cities.
Group Leader Description
This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The CEO will be the group manager, leader and driver – this person is experienced in the routes travelled and will organize and lead the meal preparations and has experience in cooking a variety of local and international dishes for large groups.
As the group coordinator and manager, the aim of the CEO is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. They will also offer suggestions for things to do and to see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends.
While our CEOs are trained and have resources to assist them along the way, the United States is the fourth largest country on the planet, and it is impossible for them to know everything about this massive country. We recommend local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting – we think it's the best of both worlds
Please note that specific tour guide licenses are required to guide in certain cities and regions, and as such, our CEOs will oftentimes provide brief orientation walks to point out useful places like supermarkets, main squares and ATMs but for more specific or in depth destination information, an official guided tour is recommended.
Group Size Notes

No meals included
Air-conditioned private vehicle, walking
About our Transportation
We use 15-passenger vans for up to 14 people plus the CEO/Driver for all our of our trips in North America. For groups of 8 and more travellers, we also use a trailer to carry luggage and camping equipment.
These vans are durable vehicles that allow us to drive on most types of roads in North America.
Each van has a front passenger seat and 4 benches that will accommodate 3 people each. No standing is permitted in these vehicles, but there is air conditioning to cool things down on warm days and mandatory seat belts to keep us secure and safe.
This is not a physically demanding journey. However, travelling can be difficult, with long drives and limited space in the van. Please take note of the travel times and distances in the above itinerary. Despite some of the long days, most clients feel that the diversity of the North American landscape, culture and wildlife are all well worth the experience!
Solo Travellers
We believe solo travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and solo travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.
Hotels (5 nts), rustic cabins (3 nts).
About Accommodation
This trip uses 2-3 star hotels and motels in cities and near park entrances. Our chosen hotels vary in size, character, and amenities, but are of a good standard, and the rooms are double occupancy with a private bathroom.

Visas and Entry Requirements
All countries require a valid passport (with a minimum 6 months validity). Contact your local embassy, or consulate for the most up-to-date visa requirements, or see your travel agent. It is your own responsibility to have the correct travel documentation. Visa requirements for your trip will vary depending on where you are from and where you are going. We keep the following information up to date as far as possible, but rules do change and sometimes without warning. While we provide the following information in good faith, it is vital that you check yourself and understand that you are fully responsible for your own visa requirements.
Spending Money
Every traveller is different and therefore spending money requirements will vary. Some travellers may drink more than others while other travellers like to purchase more souvenirs than most. Please consider your own spending habits when it comes to allowing for drinks, shopping and tipping. Please also remember the following specific recommendations when planning your trip.
Emergency Fund
Please also make sure you have access to at least an additional USD $200 (or equivalent) as an 'emergency' fund, to be used when circumstances outside our control (ex. a natural disaster) require a change to our planned route. This is a rare occurrence!
It is customary in North America to tip service providers such as waiters, bartenders and taxi drivers, at approximately 15-18%, depending on the service. Tipping is an expected – though not compulsory – component of your tour program and an expression of satisfaction with the persons who have assisted you on your tour. Although it may not be customary to you, it is of considerable significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels. There are times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip any local guides used. Recommendations for tipping local guides would range from $2-8 USD per activity depending on the quality and length of the service; ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture.

Safety and Security
Many national governments provide a regularly updated advice service on safety issues involved with international travel. We recommend that you check your government's advice for their latest travel information before departure. We strongly recommend the use of a neck wallet or money belt while travelling, for the safe keeping of your passport, air tickets, travellers' cheques, cash and other valuable items. Leave your valuable jewelery at home – you won't need it while travelling. Many of the hotels we use have safety deposit boxes, which is the most secure way of storing your valuables. A lock is recommended for securing your luggage. When travelling on a group trip, please note that your group leader has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the trip itinerary if it deemed necessary, due to safety concerns. Your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) will accompany you on all included activities. During your trip you will have some free time to pursue your own interests, relax and take it easy and explore at your leisure. While your CEO will assist you with options available in a given location, please note that any optional activities you undertake are not part of your itinerary, and we offer no representations about the safety of the activity or the standard of the operators running them. Please use your own good judgement when selecting an activity in your free time. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.
Water based activities have an element of danger and excitement built into them. We recommend only participating in water based activities when accompanied by a guide(s). We make every reasonable effort to ensure the fun and adventurous element of any water based activities (in countries with varying degrees of operating standards), have a balanced approach to safety. It is our policy not to allow our CEOs to make arrangements on your behalf for water based activities that are not accompanied by guide(s).
Swimming, including snorkeling, is always at your own risk. Read more about travel safety for ways to further enhance your personal safety while traveling.
A Couple of Rules
Illegal drugs will not be tolerated on any trips. Possessing or using drugs not only contravenes the laws of the land but also puts the rest of the group at risk. Smoking marijuana and opium is a part of local culture in some parts of the world but is not acceptable for our travellers. Our philosophy of travel is one of respect towards everyone we encounter, and in particular the local people who make the world the special place it is. The exploitation of prostitutes is completely contrary to this philosophy. Our group leader has the right to expel any member of the group if drugs are found in their possession or if they use prostitutes.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is compulsory in order to participate on any of our trips. When travelling on a group trip, you will not be permitted to join the group until evidence of travel insurance has been sighted by your leader, who will take note of your insurance details. When selecting a travel insurance policy we require that at a minimum you are covered for medical expenses including emergency evacuation and repatriation. A minimum coverage of USD200,000 is required. G Adventures can provide you with the appropriate coverage. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. Some tours include adventure activities that require extra coverage (e.g. crampon use); please review your itinerary and make sure that you are covered for all included activities. If you have credit card insurance we require proof of purchase of the trip (a receipt of credit card statement) with a credit card in your name. Contact your bank for details of their participating insurer, the level of coverage and emergency contact telephone number.
