10/10 would do this again! Our guide was super friendly and showed us great views of Austin. The bikes are easy to drive and a really fun way to see beautiful parts of the city. It was very hot when we went, but we were provided ice cold waters and even made two pit stops to water parks to cool off. Very neat way to spend a couple hours on a sunny afternoon.
Although it was a very cold day in Austin, Rooster and Gator made it an enjoyable and fun experience! My suggestion is check the weather before booking and if it’s warm and clear don’t skip this trip, very fun and super informative.
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.
The guides of this tour are very enthusiastic and have tons of personality! Our guide was very knowledgeable about the city and food attractions. And the bikes were a blast.
We had so much fun on this tour, it's a great concept and Patrick our guide was excellent. We didn't want it to end!
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
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
Absolutely fun! - Tour guide (Tyler) was great, energetic, inclusive and funny- Other people on tour were very friendly- Before hitting the road, we practiced riding on the scooter in parking lot which was very helpful- Easy to drive scooter, but driver should be confident and respect the rules of the road - Fun way to see the city and have the wind blow through your hair- Wear sunscreen!!!
Our tour was Friday morning during SXSW week - weather was perfect... Our tour guide was Patrick, he was GREAT, friendly and informative. I learned several factoids about Austin. We will definitely do it again, but next time will try the food truck tour. Great activity for families of all ages.
WOW! A great way to take alook at Austin! Fun ride and friendly/helpful staff. Returning home to San Antonio where we will ride AGAIN with them! Try 'em you won't regret it!
Our guide was Justin. He was funny and informative. This was by far my kids most favorite part of the whole Austin trip. The bikes went as fast as I could handle and not 1 mph over. The rock and roll music that was played while we cruised was so extra!!! I loved the extra detail!!
