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.
We did this tour for a bachelorette weekend and we had soooo much fun! It was a really cool way to see a little of Austin, and try something new! The best part about the tour was our tour guide! Hands down Justin is thee best, very accommodating and I'm sure he's a professional photographer on the side! Thank you Justin, again you were the best!
My girls and I went as a group for out bachelorette weekend & our Tour Guide, Patrick was AMAZING. We had so much fun. I would definitely recommend anyone and everyone to at least experience this once! Perfect for dates, groups, or riding solo and meeting new people. Thank you guys so much! See you next time!
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
We were here in October and had a great time. Everyone was friendly, informative and so welcoming. The tour was so fun and you saw so much of the downtown. Riding the bikes is easier than it looks and a great alternative to your standard, boring bus tour. Our guide was fun, engaging and informative. Our group ranged in ages from 22-49 and we all loved it.
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'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!
We had a ton of fun. Perfect for taking out of town guests on a tour of Austin. I live in Austin, but I learned lots of new facts and saw new places I didn’t know where there. This is a great way to see Austin.
We were surprised by this event @ work in place of meeting. What an incredible time! These guys are beyond GREAT at what they do, both entertaining and helpful! Rocked downtown with my "gang" as we ALL went back to office with PERMA-smiles!! Thanks again gentlemen we will be back soon!!!
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 is the best way to see the city and feel cool all at the same time!! Much better than Segway tour as you dont feel like such a geek and learn about the city!
