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
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!
I booked this as something fun to do while visiting my 25 yr old son for the weekend. Was looking for an activity that he would enjoy doing too, while giving me a nice overview of downtown Austin. We did the 9am tour on a Saturday in June, which was perfect. It hadn't gotten hot yet, and there wasn't much traffic. Our guide Tyler was great - a perfect mix of knowledgeable, enthusiastic and silly.
Cope (biker name Peanut) was a great guide! We learned some cool things about Austin, his music was on point and he was fun to be with. The bikes were pretty easy to maneuver too. We got tons of looks and hi fives from random people and even some from real bikers. We felt really cool! The water and seat cover were a nice and necessary touch. Well done!
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 an awesome instructor, great arvo full of fun, smiles & lots of beeping!! Definitely recommend for anyone that heads to Austin.
Had a great time with our biker gang. Our guide Patrick was fun and knowledgeable and an excellent photographer. Even though it was cold weather we had a good time. They provided gloves and bandanas to stay warm. Would suggest it to anyone that wants to see Austin in a totally unique way!
I had an afternoon to kill in Austin so I searched for “Tours of Austin” and stumbled upon this group. Let me start by saying I’m 71, with zero experience on any similar vehicle other than a bicycle, and was decades older than everyone else in the group. I would have preferred that the short training period was a bit longer, but nonetheless out we went. After a few minutes we all felt comfortable and man, it was fun! As the two hour time frame was nearing it seems like all of us would have happily stayed on for another hour. To be honest, it wasn’t much of a sightseeing tour since the leader isn’t really communicating with us as we ride around, but who cares? This was just pure fun. I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking for a unique experience. More
We were a group of three couples, and had a great time on this tour. It was unique, a fun way to see the City, and got to some places we otherwise would not have seen which was great. I would recommend this tour for anyone!
What a great way to visit Austin, zoom to some of the major attractions, murals and more tucked away places ! Our guide Tyler was hilarious and engaging, making this an awesome afternoon. A must do!
We had such a blast touring the city with Tyler as our guide! He did a great job of get us comfortable with the bikes before heading out on the road and we were bummed when it was all over. I will recommend Your Biker Gang to anyone visiting Austin! Awesome experience!
