The bikes were fun to ride, our entourage guide Rooster had tons of great information about Austin, and we were able to see some great highlights. Would definitely recommend this for a fun vacation activity!
My wife and I took a 2 hour tour of Austin on an electric fat tire bike. As first time visitors, it was a great way to start the vacation and explore the city. Plus, our guide was informative and patient with us as newbie riders.
If you can ride a bicycle, you can do this! I recommend you make it your first activity when you get to town. I brought my whole family, and everybody loved Your Biker Gang. Our leader, Patrick was great, and showed us all the cool and unique spots, and even took great pictures for us. We will definitely be back!
Our tour guide was awesome! Very enthusiastic and was knowlegeable about the area. He was funny, and had great charisma :)
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
The Biker Gang Ride tour was the first thing we did on our trip to Austin and it was the perfect way to get a feel for the city. Patrick was an amazing guide/personal photographer and really gave great recommendations of things to do and see while in Austin. I felt completely safe on the bike and would highly recommend this tour for people of all ages.
Highly recommend the tour if you are visiting for the first time. It will give you plenty of ideas of where to visit later. Justin our tour guide is lovely. Bikes are lots of fun
Highly recommend. Major fun and a great city tour. We had a group of 10 family members with 7 Bikes. The bikes are really cool - Easy to ride and control but feel more like a motorcycle than a bicycle. Great to cruise around like a "gang" owning the streets. Our tour guide was great, he made it fun and interesting and we covered a surprising amount of ground. Highly recommend this tour to all group types, from couples to large groups as a cool way to see and experience the city. We were also able to hike our minor children comfortably and safely with us which is a real plus for families.
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!!
Had an awesome day today with Joseph as our guide. He knew so much about the city and made the ride really fun. Would definitely recommend as an awesome way to see Austin.
