More than a real sightseeing tour of any heft, this was more a chilled out bike ride. But if you haven't ridden on one of these types of fat wheel electric bikes, it's quite fun. Worth the cost if you're two people on one bike.
Probably my favorite thing we did in Austin! I recommend doing this the first day you’re visiting because they take you all around the city and show the highlights... from Rainey Street to the capitol building to Barton Springs. They are incredibly friendly at the HQ, and our guide Cope was amazing!!
Oh my! We had so much fun on these bikes. My wife who has never ridden was a little apprehensive at first but within 5 minutes she was loving it. The tour guide was great, such a cool guy and full of knowledge. This has been my favourite tour anywhere!!
We had a short visit to Austin and found this bike ride with the gang was the most interesting and fun thing to do. Felt a lot like a small group of bikers cruising the town. Our tour guide Peanut, took great care to help us take pictures, shared interesting facts about the town and overall cared about our safety. This type of excursion is on a our recommend list for all to experience!
We took some extended family on the "Your Biker Gang" tour and had a great time! We learned a lot of cool things about Austin and enjoyed touring the city in a completely new way.
We came to town on business. We were able to escape and ride the tour. Our guide Rooster (Patrick) was incredible! It was safe, fun, and you’re able to learn a lot about the city. It is a beautiful place and the bike allows you to get around easily and experience many great sights.
10/10 would do this again! Our guide was super friendly and showed us great views of Austin. The bikes are easy to drive and a really fun way to see beautiful parts of the city. It was very hot when we went, but we were provided ice cold waters and even made two pit stops to water parks to cool off. Very neat way to spend a couple hours on a sunny afternoon.
This was our first time on electric bikes and we had a great time. We would like to get back and do it again with friends.
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
Although it was a very cold day in Austin, Rooster and Gator made it an enjoyable and fun experience! My suggestion is check the weather before booking and if it’s warm and clear don’t skip this trip, very fun and super informative.
This place is always good! Whether or not you’re looking for atmosphere, good food, or fun....I can always count on Chuys restaurant!!!
