We had a great trip on our electric bikes round the Austin area. I was a little concerned about riding around on the streets, but it was fine. Learned about some statues, murals, and buildings!
If you can ride a bicycle, you can do this! I recommend you make it your first activity when you get to town. I brought my whole family, and everybody loved Your Biker Gang. Our leader, Patrick was great, and showed us all the cool and unique spots, and even took great pictures for us. We will definitely be back!
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!
Had a great time on the tour, recommend 100%. Tyler was a lot of fun, made the tour great. Took my 18 yo nieces and they had a ball!
Definitely need to check them our and sign up for their tour's when you're in town! Tyler,our tour guide is super hyped and funny! We had so much fun that we signed up to do it again in less than 72 hours apart with some family that came in! Can't wait to see you guys again, Hernandez Family!
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 a great activity to do with friends and have a good time. We had Justin for our biker gang tour and he was fantastic.
One of the best things we did while visiting Austin. Our road Captain, Cope, was a blast to bomb around town with and very knowledgeable about the area considering he is a local and loves being one . Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting and new to the area and would likely also be something fun to do even if you've lived there as long as Cope.
This was by far the highlight of our trip! SO MUCH FUN!!! The 2 guys, Peanut and Gator, were excellent. Fun and funny and knowledgeable. First off, they took us through how to ride the bike. Very safety conscious. And were very attentive throughout the tour checking in with us to make sure we were ok. Once I got over my initial nervousness of riding the bike (I've never ridden one before) I relaxed and it was easy to ride. Seriously, not hard at all. And I'm a small woman, only 5' tall and had no trouble whatsoever. And then we were off on the streets of downtown Austin. We stopped throughout the 2 hour tour for Peanut to shows us stuff as we went. There were 8 people in our "gang". And honestly the funnest and best thing we did in Austin. I can't recommend it enough!!!
I've never ridden a mini bike or scooter so was a bit nervous about this tour but Patrick makes sure everyone practiced in the lot first and felt comfortable. You quickly get used to it. The tour was super fun. Saw some great murals, learned some history, stopped for some awesome donuts at Voodoo donuts, and received good tips on where to go after to explore more food, drinks and sights. Patrick is fun and engaging, he made sure everyone felt welcomed and included. I can't wait to go again!
Bike tour was the highlight of our trip to Austin. Patrick and Tyler were terrific guides and teachers, making everything safe and fun. Got to see so much of the city, including great food at a food truck stop. I cannot think of a more fun way to see the city and have fun for 2+ hours. My 17 & 22 year old sons loved it too.
