Our guide, Justin, was super friendly and made the tour lots of fun. The bikes are a great way to see things you wouldn’t normally get a chance to experience.
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
Tyler was great. We enjoyed the bikes and the tour of Austin. It was the highlight of our vacation!!!
Tour of the city with a stop at some good trucks ( could have lived without) but the tour of city sights was fun and informative. Definitely recommend as an introduction to Austin
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 loved this. It was the best thing I’ve done on my holiday! Me and my boyfriend can’t stop talking about it. The tour guy Patrick was great! So helpful and funny :). Definatly a must do!
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!
My wife and I had a great time if you are thinking of doing it do it we are going to book a private tour for my wife's birthday
We participated in this adventure with our teen/young adult children and our whole family universally agreed that it was tons of fun. It was a great way to see the city of Austin, our guide was very friendly and funny, and my kids loved the stop at the Graffiti Park at Castle Hills, complete with a chance to spray paint things for themselves. (Spray paint provided as part of the tour.)
Our tour guide Jon was incredible! This was the highlight of our four days in Austin. We got to see and learn so much of the city- not to mention that our guide gave us some golden recommendations for the rest of our time in Austin. The bikes were soooo fun and easy to learn. Jon showed us the best kept secrets for pictures and hidden gem art installations. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the city or even just a local wanting to see it in a new way. Such a great experience!
