It was a blast riding the bikes around town and seeing different sections of the city. Our guide, Pat, was super cool and fun. We were jammin’ along to reggae music. Only friendly note would be... we would have liked to have learned more stats and facts about Austin and fun things to do around town. Thank you for the ride!
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
A must do when you visit Texas!!! The tour was very relax and fun. We did it for both Austin and San Antonio. The electric bike is easy to operate. Our tour captains are nice and informative. Highly recommended!!
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!
This ride was so much fun! Joe, our Road Captain, made sure everyone stayed safe AND had fun. (As a mom/teacher I know firsthand how challenging it can be to keep those two in balance...LOL) I cannot say enough about how enjoyable this was. My only regret is that we did the ride towards the end of our trip. Doing this ride the first day would have given us a better perspective of Austin and a list of things/places we would have loved going back to. So my advice would be: Go join the bike gang as soon as you touch down in Austin.
This tour was so much fun. It was so entertaining to ride around Austin on the electric bikes. We stopped at some cool murals to take group photos that turned out really cool. Patrick was the head of our biker gang and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide! I’d highly recommend this tour!!
What fun! This is a must while in Austin. Gramps (Tyler) was a fun and energetic tour guide. Because of this tour we went to the city library, which is beautiful, and so unique. We never would have gone to the library! Just Do It!
My wife and I had a great tour with Tyler last week. We booked the 9:00 AM Thursday tour, and we were lucky enough to have the whole experience to ourselves.The weather was a bit chilly, but we had a great time.Tyler was safety-conscious, knowledgeable, and funny. I would definitely recommend this tour to others.It was a perfect way to get acquainted with Austin for first-time visitors like us.
Had a great tour of the city with our tour guide Justin! My wife and I had a great time seeing the city, and Justin showed us interesting things that the average tour might not go over, such as fun facts about the buildings and parks. He was friendly and engaging, and took plenty of pictures of us. Thanks for a great time!
We did the sunset tour and We had a great time! Tyler was an excellent tour guide and made the night super fun!
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.
