My family of 4 rented 2 e-bikes and did the city tour with Gator. The bikes were fun to ride, safe with with kids. We hit a bunch of hotspots, and Gator kept it fun.
My wife and I took a 2 hour tour of Austin on an electric fat tire bike. As first time visitors, it was a great way to start the vacation and explore the city. Plus, our guide was informative and patient with us as newbie riders.
Lots of fun for me and my 7 yo and 17 yo. My son rode with me and my daughter had her own bike. Great tour of Austin
This is just the best way to get a feel for the city! It was great fun picking our "biker names," gearing up for the ride, hopping on the bikes and establishing our presence on the roads of Austin! We had a blast!... "Rooster" was the best guide... very fun and funny, very knowledgeable about the city, and very attentive to make sure we were all comfortable and safe! If you're in Austin... Do this!
We had some much fun with Joe. It was rainy and cold for our ride but we still had tons of fun. We loved it.
We just spent the last 2 hours having fun with Tyler as he navigated us through the city of Austin. If you are in Austin make this a must do fun thing to do in the city! Tyler was energetic with LOTs of knowledge!
My husband and myself , and my 16 year old son and his friend had a wonderful afternoon with Your Biker Gang. Great way to see 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
Tour operator was awesome, made the adventure both fun and educational. The electric bikes are a blast to cruise around downtown Austin on. I would definitely go back for another ride with them.
4 of us 40 somethings got a lay of the land in the Austin downtown area on a Saturday morning. We had an excellent guide and were taken to 4 or 5 amazing spots for pictures. One of the stops include a French style coffee shop and the chocolate croissants were fantastic. Definitely recommend.
Tyler was an awesome tour guide! He took us to some amazing sites, explained their background and it was just fun riding the bikes around town with my wife! I'd definitely recommend this tour!
