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.
This is hands down the best tour to take when visiting Austin! We had so much fun! It was like getting your first electric car toy when you were a kid at Christmas (Mine was a red Jeep) and now as an adult I got the same feeling with this fat tire electric bike! It was super easy to ride. We took the morning tour which started at 9 AM. Our tour guides Tyler and Cope were amazing! They showed us must see places in Austin and were really knowledgeable about the city. On our tour we saw The capital from afar, drove by the governors house, stopped at graffiti hills, showed us cool buildings and architecture downtown and some awesome art work and sculptures. Most importantly they did a great job keeping everyone safe and together. It’s not easy leading a pack of newbie electric bike riders around the streets of Austin Tx but they made it seem effortless. I highly recommend this and I plan to do this again every time I get near Austin! I really hope this business will open locations in other cities because I would go to them all!! Don’t forget to wear sunblock and sunglasses! And tennis shoes would probably be the best option for this activity.
I booked this tour for a team builder. We had a great time. The bikes were easy to ride. Our guide 'Rooster' was fun and knowledgeable. After a few minutes of instructions and trial runs we were off exploring the city. Our guide took lots of pictures of us. We even stopped for donuts and coffee. Highly recommend doing this. Much better than segways.
We had a great time with Patrick this past weekend! There were 7 of us on a girls trip and the tour was a blast! I would recommend it to everyone! A unique way to see the sights of Austin! Don't miss it!
This is a great fun way to see the city of Austin! Tyler was a really good informative, interactive & fun tour guide! I would highly recommend this tour if you to spend a couple of fun hours in Austin!
Fantastic!! The whole experience was exciting and fun. If you're on the fence about trying this out, take that step and do it! Cope was our guide and did an excellent job showing my wife and I around the city and telling us some history along the way. It's not a strict tour, it's very laid back and extremely worth it!
We had a great time with Patrick on our "biker gang" tour of Austin. He was fun and very accommodating for pictures. We had hoped we would have seen more of the sights of Austin. Much of the tour was through a more run-down part of the city.
Okay, a blast! Of course I love motoring around the city on a mini bike, crossing bridges, drinking espresso coffee by the river, but at first ai was wondering....is this safe? I was bringing my daughter who I let ride alone, and after a few minutes of deep breaths realized how safe Tyler our guide was so after that I realized and had a blast? Of course you should do it, what are you waiting for?!
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
Great tour, very knowledgeable road captain, smart idea, super safe, amazing city and a lot of fun for all!
We had a great afternoon! Much quicker and fun way to get an overview of downtown Austin. Lots of Instagram ready pics and a super fun guide. Worth your time.
