Tyler is a fantastic guide. He enriched our experience and made sure my kids had fun. He is knowledgeable about Austin and its history. We learned a lot and had a blast driving around town. The minibikes are easy to drive and tons of fun. This is a "must do"when visiting Austin.
We came to town on business. We were able to escape and ride the tour. Our guide Rooster (Patrick) was incredible! It was safe, fun, and you’re able to learn a lot about the city. It is a beautiful place and the bike allows you to get around easily and experience many great sights.
I highly recommend this tour! Our guide Peanut was amazing, full of energy, and full of fun facts about the city!
I'm local, so I'll be back. I took my (70something) mom on a 9 a.m. vaguely-themed YBG tour (they offer some that are focused on specific aspects of Austin -- this one was more the general one) because it was her birthday and we had guests coming in to town and she still hasn't been downtown much. I expected the usual high points, just on a bike, and that would have been cool. What I got was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide (Patrick) who took us on a tour that was an awesome combination of the usual high points and some fascinating side trips. (Dude knows a lot about all kinds of minutae, including chicken and tattoos and local plants and Texas history -- it totally didn't surprise me that he was a teacher in a past life!) We went places that I didn't know existed and had a blast. So, two thumbs up. And I would think this tour would be fine for almost anyone -- I drove because my mom gets nervous, but we were on easily operated, well maintained bikes and took safe, medium-traffic routes, and she totally could've handled it as well. Our fellow tour takers varied from college students on Spring break to, well, my mom. So anyone would enjoy it. And it's a pretty good deal for 2ish hours of really good guidance. Do it -- you'll be glad you did. More
Had an amazing time! Rooster was a very knowledgeable tour guide and catered the ride to what we wanted to see. I would definitely do it again and hope that this becomes available in other cities.
We did the tour with Joeseph. He was funny, professional, and our group enjoyed very much. It's a great way to see the city.
This was a very fun, educational, and fun experience. Yep. I typed fun twice!Great tour of Austin. Saw many colorful artistic murals, big beautiful skyscrapers downtown, Austin City Limits, Willie Nelson's statue, the State Capitol, Governor's Mansion, Sandra Bullock's restaurant, Austin City Hall, and the beautiful people of Austin along the sidewalks.Our tour-guide was Patrick. Great guy. Very positive and optimistic, and smiling the entire time. He took a lot of care to ensure we were all safe in learning how to ride the electric motorbikes, as well as test driving in the back alley and parking garage nearby. He provided a very informative, educational, and fun ride, with about 7 or 8 stops along the way. Even had some good-natured, friendly baseball rivalry banter with him being a Yankees fan and I a Red Sox fan... all the way down in here in Texas!Highly recommended! More
Really fun way to see the city, that is totally customizable based on what your preferences are. Jon was awesome, can’t recommend enough!
It was a unique way to experience Austin and our guide was wonderful!! We had a great time and felt super cool doing it. ;)
This experience is a blast! Where else can you lean back on your own fat boy and cruise the City without a license to ride? Granted, they top out at 20mph and your guide takes pretty good care to make sure you don't end up in crazy bad traffic.We went out on the morning trek with Justin. He did a great job teaching us the basics before we hit the road. It is important to remember this is a 'tour', not just a ride. Consequently, you make several stops during the tour to dismount, chat and take pictures. In addition, you only move as fast as the slowest rider. Unfortunately, they don't subscribe to the theory of Survival of the Fittest.Justin did a fine job explaining little factoids about the city as we tolled around. Our group was most interested in scenery and music, so those are the sites that he spent most of his time on. The only regret I have is I would have liked the option of cruising around a bit on my own at the end and just letting the bike fly down the streets. I think 20 miles per hour may be understating the performance of these beasts, but we never really had a chance to find out. More
We came to Austin for a bachelor party and we planned Your Biker Gang as our kick off into the weekend. It couldn't have been any better. Tyler was the most amazing, energetic, sassy guide you could have ever asked for. He made the entire experience 100x better.The trip itself was amazing, personable and tons of fun. Tyler was extremely knowledgeable of the city and catered the entire tour based on the places he felt we should see vs. the experience of the people that had already been to Austin. Will definitely be coming back!
