Although I am from Austin and all of the spots we stopped out on our tour were familiar to me I still learned some interesting stuff. That's not why I'm giving this review. Riding these "bikes" were a complete blast and the dudes doing the tour were super friendly and know what they are doing! I'll be trying to convince my local friends that we need to do this some time!
Holy cow! What an amazing way to explore a city! This is very unique and different from other tours I have taken, where you usually get talked at for an hour and you just snap photos that you'll never look at again. Using electric scooters allows you to truly immerse yourself and be involved with the experience. Our tour guide Tyler was very accommodating to what we wanted to learn about Austin and a great teacher for learning how to drive the bikes.I would recommended booking at the beginning of a trip, because Tyler showed us stuff we would've never known to visit without his recommendations.
Your Biker Gang was an awesome experience for my group! The Road Captains were absolutely incredible, and they tailored the tour to our interests. They provided water for the trip and made sure that everyone was drinking plenty to stay hydrated on the ride. They continually took pictures during the ride and had them posted for us within 10 minutes of completing our ride. Riding around town is fun all on its own, but the Road Captains made it so much more entertaining and engaging. Our group was pretty skilled in terms of riding, so we got to hit all of the major spots plus a number of smaller, lesser known ones because we moved pretty quickly. I highly recommend Your Biker Gang for travelers and even those that live in the city. You get a great broad tour, but you also get to see things that even most locals probably don't know about. I can't recommend this enough!
Tyler was an awesome tour guide! He took us to some amazing sites, explained their background and it was just fun riding the bikes around town with my wife! I'd definitely recommend this tour!
We had the most incredible time with Patrick at Your Biker Gang Austin. He was so patient and informative when we were learning the ropes on the bike, and genuinely enjoys showing people his city. We felt like part of a real team riding around the city and saw some very unique sights! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
We tried this in the advice of a friend who did it. So when our out-of-town friends came to visit, we did it. Oh my gosh!!! It was soooooo much fun!!!! I highly recommend this. We saw so much of Austin we had never seen before and we’ve lived here 15 years. Our guide, Tyler, was excellent!!
My family took the tour during SXSW week. Everyone in the group felt like the tour was awesome and would do it again on the next visit! The tour guide was full of energy, was funny, whipped us around town safely/efficiently, and stopped for pictures/info at cool sites.
Took my 16 year old on this tour. Didn’t expect to have so much fun. John, our guide, did a great job of instructing and guiding. Felt like we were in a eco-friendly biker gang. Lots of looks from the people on the streets. Would do this again in a heartbeat. This is a great family activity. Can’t recommend high enough. Skip the Segways. This is a lot more fun and doesn’t make you feet ache. Easier to drive as well.
Had an awesome time! Seeing the city like this is the way to go. I would do this everytime I visit Austin. So cool
I came to Austin for the weekend with my parents and my cousin, and the first thing we did was do the electric mini bike tour. Patrick and Justin were so much fun! They taught us about the major spots in the city, played fun music and took great pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with decent balance who is visiting Austin. And even if you’re a little bit scarred or unsure, they are very accommodating. For example, my mom was unable to ride her own bike, so she ended up riding with Justin and had as much fun as the rest of us.
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.
