I highly recommend this tour! Our guide Peanut was amazing, full of energy, and full of fun facts about 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
We planned two full days in Austin and had never been before. When I found this tour I was excited that it was on an electric bike since I knew we’d be able to cover more ground. The day of the tour was chilly in the 30s so we dressed warm. I’m glad we did it! John/Gator was an awesome guide full of stories and history of the city that we never would have learned on our own. He also had lots of great tips about places to check out while we’re in town. They take lots of photos which is nice, too. I’d do another tour with them for sure.
Such an awesome/fun experience! We all had a great time cruising through Austin and hearing about it’s history! Highly recommend!
Wonderful...we are 60+ first timers. The staff was patient and very supportive. We saw Austin in a fun and memorable manner. A must for all
Tyler has a great energy and he is an amazing motivational speaker. One of our teams mates had a hard time and didn't want to ride but Tyler talked to her for 2 mins and she was all in afterwards and she did a great job! It was sooo fun and never felt unsafe
We had the best time on our bike tour! Our office went for our Christmas outing and had more fun than we even expected! Tyler was our guide and made our trip so memorable. We had a wide range of ages and abilities and everyone was able to learn quickly and feel safe. We HIGHLY recommend this activity for anyone looking to do something fun in downtown Austin and have already been referring friends! Thank you Your Biker Gang and Tyler for such a great time!
6 year old and 11 year old thought this was the highlight of our trip. Better than San Antonio zoo. River walk.... they wanted to do it all day. Tyler the guide was superb!
Our guide was Tyler and he was perfect. Knowledgeable, helpful and fun; seriously great at his job. It was a gorgeous day and, after our training, we felt completely comfortable on the bikes. We saw a lot of the town and loved the experience. It was one of our favorite parts of our trip. I would go on another ride if there was one near where I live. Thank you again! Catherine
Wow! What a great way to see Austin. Great tour and a lot of fun. We toured the city and had a a chance to have fun on the electric bikes!
By far the one if the best experiences I’ve been had while in Austin. I booked the food tour for my girlfriend and I, not only did we eat some authentic Venezuelan food, but also got to explore the city and that picture at the famous places on Austin. Our tour guide was Patrick, he went far and beyond for us, very knowledgeable about the city and it’s history which is a plus if it’s yout first time visiting Austin.10/10 will do it again
