We had a blast. These are fun and funny. We were in town for a wedding/family reunion and one of the family members saw this and thought it would be fun and it turned out to be a blast!
This was the #1 thing we did in Austin! I’d highly recommend it. And the guide “Peanut” is awesome!!
This is a MUST do if your traveling to Austin. My friends and I had an amazing experience. The bikes are a lot of fun and so are the guys that run the place. Me and my 4 friends were in Austin for about a week and this was everyone's favorite part of the trip.
It was a lot of fun! Cole was a great guide. I will do this again when family comes to visit. We learned a lot.
This was a blast! It was so fun and such a great way to show some of our friends Downtown Austin! The bikes were fun to drive and easy to learn. Our guide Tyler was amazing! He was the greatest tour guide and very knowledgeable of the city and stops. We would absolutely do this again!
It’s a great thing to do when visiting Austin. They take you to places you wouldn’t have thought of and tel you cool facts about all the places. Also you can go a scenic route and get good insta pics if you want! I recommend going with Tyler because he’s funny and nice! My friends and I went twice.
After finding this experience on google, my daughter thought it would be a great addition to our vacation. It sounded fun and we really wanted to see the bats - so I booked it! It was even better than I had imagined. It took a little time for the guys (our drivers) to get the hang of the bikes but in five to ten minutes we were ready to hit the road. I felt safe during our ride and Tyler was a wonderful personality for the job. I would recommend to anyone who wants to have a blast seeing Austin in a different way. Thank you for such a fun night!
Signed up for this as a way to see Austin and do a good tour. After some patient training we took off. Tyler, our guide, was excellent, and safety was always a priority! We signed up for the food truck tour and were a bit surprised that we didn’t visit more and the one visit was optional. I think there could be more clarity in what the tour is and is not. Overall, we would highly recommend this as an option to see the city!!
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
I came to Austin for the weekend with my parents and my cousin, and the first thing we did was do the electric mini bike tour. Patrick and Justin were so much fun! They taught us about the major spots in the city, played fun music and took great pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with decent balance who is visiting Austin. And even if you’re a little bit scarred or unsure, they are very accommodating. For example, my mom was unable to ride her own bike, so she ended up riding with Justin and had as much fun as the rest of us.
My hubby and 2 kids said that Tyler was awesome! He was patient, knew the subject matter, knew the streets of Austin and was a great instructor! So much so that they wanted to do it again the next day! It was so much fun that we have decided that this would be a great bday gift for our friends and family. Am actually booking an appt. for next week as a bday gift for a friend's daughter! She is excited.....
