This is a MUST do if your traveling to Austin. My friends and I had an amazing experience. The bikes are a lot of fun and so are the guys that run the place. Me and my 4 friends were in Austin for about a week and this was everyone's favorite part of the trip.
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
One of the best experiences in all of Texas! Full Family Fun!!!! Great tour, Great Guys, Great Time, and Great Ride!
Came into Austin for a quick weekend with our teens. Found Your Biker gang on TripAdvisor and loved every minute of our tour. Our road captains, Cope and Patrick, were super cool and informative. We went to Congress St, 2nd Street, 6th Street, Doug Sahm Hill, food trucks, Welcome to Austin sign, and drove thru a great old neighbor with new modern homes. I loved driving the bike and want to take the tour again on my next visit to Austin. So worth the money!
Patrick, awesome time today!Luvd our ride! Great food, great company, awesome bikes!We' ll be back for more!69 ers Rock!!Go Yankees!
We had a great afternoon! Much quicker and fun way to get an overview of downtown Austin. Lots of Instagram ready pics and a super fun guide. Worth your time.
We had an amazing tour with Tyler, he was hilarious and informative. Bikes are so much fun and easy to ride. Fantastic way to see the city! Highly recommend!
By far the one if the best experiences I’ve been had while in Austin. I booked the food tour for my girlfriend and I, not only did we eat some authentic Venezuelan food, but also got to explore the city and that picture at the famous places on Austin. Our tour guide was Patrick, he went far and beyond for us, very knowledgeable about the city and it’s history which is a plus if it’s yout first time visiting Austin.10/10 will do it again
We were on our way from Dallas to San Antonio for a trip with our daughter and grandkids when I saw this written up in TripAdvisor. Since the kids hadn't seen Austin, I thought this was going to be a nice way to take a drive break and have some fun. THIS WAS EXCELLENT! We had Jon as our leader and he stopped at a lot of picture places and showed the new stuff, the older part of the city and finally the Capitol building. Everyone in our group (grandparents, kids, grandkids) raved about the ride. Definitely a great place to start if you want to get in character and have some fun. More
Just a fantastic way to learn about the city of Austin.Gator was an excellent guide and thoughtfully adapted my tour to match things I'd mentioned earlier.It could have been a slightly sad day on my own ( I'm on a business trip - don't know anyone here). Instead I found myself laughing with Gator as we rode the streets to Starship "We built this city" and other well chosen music.The bikes are easy to learn. I'm mid 50's and never ridden a motor bike, so it can't be hard.I'll be back when I'm next in town.
So glad we did this while visiting Austin. I enjoyed the small group setting and fun tour guide. Was able to get some great photo ops that we wouldn't have been able to get otherwise.
