This is really a must do activity for anyone in Austin wanting to discover the city in a fun and interesting way. Our guide took us arround different parts of Austin making various stops to tell us about the city’s history, he made it extremely fun to learn. And of course riding the actual bikes was really cool ! Anyway all in all an amazing attraction which i would recommend fully !
This was one of the best downtown weekend activities we have ever done as a family! We booked our tour on a Sunday and took both kids with us. This was a dual father son birthday present and we all had a blast. Our guide was great and the enjoyment and experience we had was equally matched by what we spent for the tour. The motor bike was easy to maneuver and thankfully there is a good amount of practice before getting on the road. The stops along the tour were awesome and our guide provided a thorough and interesting commentary of Austin and Texas facts along the way. This is absolutely worth every penny and an experience you won't forget! I would recommend definitely checking weather conditions and dressing comfortably.
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!
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
My wife booked this trip for our visit to Austin. Family of 5. We rented 4 bikes. Wife,Me,18YO,16YO, and I put my 12YO, on the back with me. I ride dirt bikes and Harley’s and thought this would be corney, Wrong! We did a few test runs in the back to get used to the fat tire, and off we went. Hit up some bridges, parks, signs, and several points of interest. It was super cool and our guide was amazing. We would stop at the red lights and he would get off and explain where we are, how it became, and what it’s in for, perfect timing every light. Never asked for a tip and just wanted to know if we had fun. I gave him a tip for all of us and Thanked him, I wish I remembered his name. My family and I talked about all the cool stuff we seen the whole week, and I was super happy to be riding 2 wheels with my whole family. Couldn’t believe that there was no traffic in downtown. Definitely recommend this experience, and book early.
We participated in this adventure with our teen/young adult children and our whole family universally agreed that it was tons of fun. It was a great way to see the city of Austin, our guide was very friendly and funny, and my kids loved the stop at the Graffiti Park at Castle Hills, complete with a chance to spray paint things for themselves. (Spray paint provided as part of the tour.)
This is the best way to see the city and feel cool all at the same time!! Much better than Segway tour as you dont feel like such a geek and learn about the city!
Tyler was an awesome guide. He made us all feel safe and sound through his safety and test driving before we set out on the open road. This was a great way to see the city in a fun and informational way. I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Austin city area looking for a unique and fun way to see the city! Great way to make teens happy on a "tourist" trip :)
Fantastic tour with Pat and Justin. Got to see a ton of the city while having fun and learning a lot. I would do this tour if you are in Austin!
I planned a biker gang ride for my sister’s bachelorette weekend and Austin for 11 girls and it was hands down the highlight of the weekend for all. We had an INCREDIBLE guide, Tyler. He reached out a few hours prior to the ride to see if we had any questions. During the ride he took us to some of the coolest sites in Austin (plenty of photo opportunities). He also provided a ton of Austin knowledge and plenty of laughs. BIKER GANG is a must do in Austin and hopefully you will be as lucky as us to be led by Tyler!
Justin, our tour guide was nothing short of awesome. Super enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and straight up fun. Would definitely recommend!
