I am a true native Austinite and this was one of the FUNNEST adventures I have done in this city. I was sad when it was over. We are definitely going back and doing this again. Maybe the night tour next time. Our gang leader (ride captain) was Tyler. Wow! Right guy for the job. He was SO funny and made this the best experience. Thank you Tyler and Biker Gang!!!
We had such a fun time with Tyler as our tour guide. He made the tour super fun and kept the energy positive the entire time. Definitely an unforgettable experience. I would recommend it to anymore.
Cope (biker name Peanut) was a great guide! We learned some cool things about Austin, his music was on point and he was fun to be with. The bikes were pretty easy to maneuver too. We got tons of looks and hi fives from random people and even some from real bikers. We felt really cool! The water and seat cover were a nice and necessary touch. Well done!
Great way to see the city and a very unique way. We had an amazing tour guide and saw the capitol, many murals and all of Austin. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to tour the city in a unique way
My friends and I had a blast on this tour. Tyler was hilarious and very knowledgeable about the city. He also gave us some great recommendations. I will definitely tell anyone going to Austin they need to experience this tour.
We did the tour with Joeseph. He was funny, professional, and our group enjoyed very much. It's a great way to see the city.
I had an afternoon to kill in Austin so I searched for “Tours of Austin” and stumbled upon this group. Let me start by saying I’m 71, with zero experience on any similar vehicle other than a bicycle, and was decades older than everyone else in the group. I would have preferred that the short training period was a bit longer, but nonetheless out we went. After a few minutes we all felt comfortable and man, it was fun! As the two hour time frame was nearing it seems like all of us would have happily stayed on for another hour. To be honest, it wasn’t much of a sightseeing tour since the leader isn’t really communicating with us as we ride around, but who cares? This was just pure fun. I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking for a unique experience. More
After finding these guys on the net before leaving the UK we booked three of us in for a 9am tour ( approx 2.5 hours ).We turned up at HQ and were greater by Tyler ,he was extremely friendly, enthusiastic and warmly welcoming , after showing us round the bikes and explaining the controls we were taken to an of road area where Tyler made sure we had control before we went on the road.The tour was fantastic fun, extremely good and a brilliant way of having a guided tour of the city ( with an extremely knowledgeable guide )this is a must do tour that will make your smile a mile wide ,do it or miss out.
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.
Tyler has a great energy and he is an amazing motivational speaker. One of our teams mates had a hard time and didn't want to ride but Tyler talked to her for 2 mins and she was all in afterwards and she did a great job! It was sooo fun and never felt unsafe
