Amazing!! Don't miss out on this experience. It takes about 10 minutes to get comfortable on the bikes but after that, you will not want it to end. I wish I could have paid for an additional two hours!
Our guide was Justin. He was funny and informative. This was by far my kids most favorite part of the whole Austin trip. The bikes went as fast as I could handle and not 1 mph over. The rock and roll music that was played while we cruised was so extra!!! I loved the extra detail!!
We planned two full days in Austin and had never been before. When I found this tour I was excited that it was on an electric bike since I knew we’d be able to cover more ground. The day of the tour was chilly in the 30s so we dressed warm. I’m glad we did it! John/Gator was an awesome guide full of stories and history of the city that we never would have learned on our own. He also had lots of great tips about places to check out while we’re in town. They take lots of photos which is nice, too. I’d do another tour with them for sure.
Amazing ride to see the city of Austin! Loved tour guide Patrick! Amazing food trucks! Highly recommend for anyone visiting this fun city!
There's no need to know how to ride a motorcycle, if you can ride a bicycle, you can do this + they'll teach you at the beginning how to properly ride it.
We had a blast. These are fun and funny. We were in town for a wedding/family reunion and one of the family members saw this and thought it would be fun and it turned out to be a blast!
My friend and I had been stewing on the idea of wanting to do the biker tour for one long year and it was even better than we could have imagined. Tyler was entertaining and fun and we had a great group of people to ride around with. We even got to meet another employee Patrick at the end of the day and treated us like we were old friends, he was the cherry on top. Definitely coming back again!
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
If you are planning a trip to Austin, do not miss this fun filled "biker tour" of Austin. Your hosts will make sure you are comfortable riding the mini-bikes. Tyler and Justin were both awesome instructors and tour guides.
Definitely do this!!! What a blast we had and Tyler was a hilarious, engaging and informative guide. We loved every minute of our ride!
We were only in Austin 2 days and wanted to see a good bit of the city. Tyler made sure we saw some really cool scenes, took some cool pictures and kept us laughing. It was really cold out so we were going to rethink going but I’m glad we did it!!
