My wife and UT student daughter took the fat tire mini bike tour with Gator. F see un trip around Austin. Bikes are easy to ride but can ride double if one is uneasy with the bike. You are riding on streets with cars but Gator was very safe and we never felt nervous in traffic. Great way to see Austin. They have some different routes so not sure you always see the same things. Highly recommend the adventure and Gator was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Good times.
My son and I rode the electric bike Austin tour yesterday. Patrick was knowledgeable and friendly and we got to see a lot of Austin. It’s a lot of fun for 2 hours. I’d give it 5 stars without the accident.Be careful though, these bikes can slip out from under you on loose gravel. This happened to me after visiting graffiti park. Heading down a steep hill, my bike slid out on some gravel and down I went. My knee is hurt and I have some pretty severe scrapes. It would have been great for us to go single file down the hill, but that wasn’t the guidance from our guide. Your biker gang should really take that part of the tour out of their route. It didn’t appear that Patrick had a first aid kit on him for such occurrences. I was offered two moist towelettes and band aids to hold me over until we got back to their location 10 mins away.I suggest you be very careful and consider the insurance and keep to the middle of the lanes away from debris on the roads. Fun time, but the bikes are heavy and can slip out on you on loose gravel. More
The thought of riding an electrically powered bike was a little weird so fitting for Austin the weird city, but boy was it great. The whole experience from start to finish made it just fun and more fun. The gang leader Joeseph made our day and tour of Austin seemed to fly past with great interesting pointers and history. So I suggest to biker gang get more bikes because this is a must for anyone that follows trip advisor for looking up fun stuff to do. Enjoy
We had a great time with Patrick as our guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and made the entire experience so fun. As this was our first trip to Austin, it was such a great way to see the city and learn about its history. We would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Austin.
We had a great time with Patrick this past weekend! There were 7 of us on a girls trip and the tour was a blast! I would recommend it to everyone! A unique way to see the sights of Austin! Don't miss it!
We have never been to Austin and ran across this fat tire electric bike tour online. We do a tour every vacation we go on. This was so much fun for the whole family. The guys really went above and beyond what you pay for. Perfect way to see Austin!
Guide was awesome, he was always excited and he loved his job, he made sure you had a good time, if weren't having fun he would make the fun..
This is a must tour! Forget about walking! Ride in style and and a unique adventure for sure, we enjoyed it.
Listen, I’m not a “tour guy”. The last tour I can recall doing was Alcatraz when I was 12. But, let me tell you - This was a BLAST! The tour guides are very knowledgeable, the bikes are a blast to ride (and VERY easy to learn), and our 7 year old twins loved getting to ride with us. Whether you’re local or a tourist, go do this. You’ll have a great time.
Absolutely the best way to see Austin. My brother, cousin and I rode around town and had a blast today!
Tyler was an awesome guide. He made us all feel safe and sound through his safety and test driving before we set out on the open road. This was a great way to see the city in a fun and informational way. I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Austin city area looking for a unique and fun way to see the city! Great way to make teens happy on a "tourist" trip :)
