I had friends from out of the country visiting and this was the perfect way showing them around. It was so much fun and our tour guide was great. Will be back in a couple of weeks with the next visitors.
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
8 friends from Toronto booked this tour and had a fabulous time. Our tour guide GATOR(aka John) made this tour memorable. His energy and personality provided our group with 2 hours of fun, laughs and good times. Gator made this experience awesome!!Highly recommend this tour!!!
The thought of riding an electrically powered bike was a little weird so fitting for Austin the weird city, but boy was it great. The whole experience from start to finish made it just fun and more fun. The gang leader Joeseph made our day and tour of Austin seemed to fly past with great interesting pointers and history. So I suggest to biker gang get more bikes because this is a must for anyone that follows trip advisor for looking up fun stuff to do. Enjoy
One of the best experiences in all of Texas! Full Family Fun!!!! Great tour, Great Guys, Great Time, and Great Ride!
Had an awesome time touring Austin on the bikes. Patrick was awesome, could have been a boring ride, but he made it exciting and took us to a great BBQ.
Our tour guide was super accommodating. We had to change our plans a couple of times due to the unpredictable weather and they were more than happy to change them according to our schedule. Very knowledgeable about the city and super fun! Thank you!
We did this tour for a bachelorette weekend and we had soooo much fun! It was a really cool way to see a little of Austin, and try something new! The best part about the tour was our tour guide! Hands down Justin is thee best, very accommodating and I'm sure he's a professional photographer on the side! Thank you Justin, again you were the best!
Our tour guide was awesome! Very enthusiastic and was knowlegeable about the area. He was funny, and had great charisma :)
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.
Highly recommend and will absolutely schedule with family and friends again. Cope was the best! Down to earth, fun and made the ride a real adventure!!
