I booked this as something fun to do while visiting my 25 yr old son for the weekend. Was looking for an activity that he would enjoy doing too, while giving me a nice overview of downtown Austin. We did the 9am tour on a Saturday in June, which was perfect. It hadn't gotten hot yet, and there wasn't much traffic. Our guide Tyler was great - a perfect mix of knowledgeable, enthusiastic and silly.
Rooster was an incredible guide. Took tons of great photos of myself and wife. He made it fun and informative A blast. Joel and Jess Lerner aka Otter and Bull dog. South Florida
Fantastic!! The whole experience was exciting and fun. If you're on the fence about trying this out, take that step and do it! Cope was our guide and did an excellent job showing my wife and I around the city and telling us some history along the way. It's not a strict tour, it's very laid back and extremely worth it!
This was great time. The two gentlemen that led our gang were wonderful. It's a fun different way to see the city we love!!
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.
Our group of 8 adults (6 drivers and 2 riders) recently had a blast touring downtown Austin with Patrick, a former elementary school teacher turned biker dude. After making sure we all felt comfortable on our bikes before heading out, he said his three goals for the day were safety, education, and fun, and he exceeded our expectations in every area.In addition to the standard Austin downtown landmarks, he also pointed out lesser-known sights including a flock of Mexican parakeets sporting bright green plumage as well as their incredible public library, which we visited at his suggestion after the tour was over. (Best library ever! If you have time, go check out the views from the gorgeous outdoor lounging area at the top of the building as well as the innovative features of the actual library, including a kiosk that will dispense random reading material based on the amount of time you have to read. Wow!)The Voodoo Donuts stop halfway through the tour was a well-timed and delicious break, and the cooler bags full of ice-cold water he provided at the YBG location came in handy. Besides being a knowledgeable tour guide, Patrick is also a great photographer, and he captured the day in numerous pics (group and individual ones) to help us remember this wonderful experience. Since our accommodations for the week were actually in San Antonio, we only spent one day in Austin, and I can’t think of a better introduction to the city than cruising around it with Patrick. Don’t think twice – BOOK THIS TOUR!
WOW! A great way to take alook at Austin! Fun ride and friendly/helpful staff. Returning home to San Antonio where we will ride AGAIN with them! Try 'em you won't regret it!
This experience is a blast! Where else can you lean back on your own fat boy and cruise the City without a license to ride? Granted, they top out at 20mph and your guide takes pretty good care to make sure you don't end up in crazy bad traffic.We went out on the morning trek with Justin. He did a great job teaching us the basics before we hit the road. It is important to remember this is a 'tour', not just a ride. Consequently, you make several stops during the tour to dismount, chat and take pictures. In addition, you only move as fast as the slowest rider. Unfortunately, they don't subscribe to the theory of Survival of the Fittest.Justin did a fine job explaining little factoids about the city as we tolled around. Our group was most interested in scenery and music, so those are the sites that he spent most of his time on. The only regret I have is I would have liked the option of cruising around a bit on my own at the end and just letting the bike fly down the streets. I think 20 miles per hour may be understating the performance of these beasts, but we never really had a chance to find out. More
We had so much fun on this tour. Pat was a fantastic guide and got us around to what we wanted to see safely and efficiently. A great way to see attractions and murals around the city. They are flexible and can adjust the route to cover what your or your group are looking to explore.The bikes were easy to pick up, and drivers in Austin were largely friendly to our group even as we shared the road with them.
Tour guide was super enthusiastic (but not too much) and fun to work with. Knowledgeable about the area and easy to work with. A lot of fun!
Our tour guide (Tyler) was AMAZING! This was the most fun we had on our 4 day get away to Austin! Funnest way to see all the spots in Austin!
