A group of 10 of us went out for my 30th birthday this past weekend, and EVERY SINGLE ONE of us had a BLAST!! (Even with my brother taking a fall and husbands bike's battery dying shortly into the tour). Because of one of our bikes dying, Ryan quickly made it a point to offer me a refund for the bike. Customer Service here is amazing. I can't say enough good things about the actual tour or the company. If other family members come visit me in Austin, this will definitely be back on the to-do list!
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
We went today for our first time and it was awesome. We had Tyler as our guide and his personality and energy was great! We loved every freaking bit of our tour. It was freezing and yet no part of the tour made us care about how cold it was because he was great! I would recommend them to any and everyone!!! Thanks for an awesome tour!
We had Rooster as a guide and he couldn’t have done better! We ended up as the only people and he readjusted the tour to take us on an overview of the area homes and unique buildings and scenery. Loved every minute!
Biker Gang tour with Cope was amazing. Cope was an excellent tour guide and made the ride around downtown Austin fun. I enjoyed most when we were honking at the people at the bar as they cheered us on. Also, we had a group of motorcycles pass us and they gave us a show which was really cool. We have plenty of pictures that Cope took of us which was a pleasure as well. Lastly, thanks to Cope I felt safe on the bikes and was able to ride smoothly. Definitely check it out if you’re in Austin.
We showed up for our tour and found we were a gang of only 3 -- us (Blade and Alli-gator) and Rooster. Rooster was a teacher in a previous life and it shows. He's a smart guy who is really good at his job. We had a great time, covered a lot of downtown Austin, learned a lot, and even stopped off for a snack and rest along the way. The bikes are really easy to use, and Sunday morning could not have been a more perfect time to be out and about. I definitely recommend this tour for a good taste of Austin.
As an Austinite, we will definitely bring our future guests on this adventure - great mix of murals and landmarks. We had such a wonderful time!!
Had an amazing time on our ride in Austin. Would totally do it again and recommend it to anyone looking to take a tour of Austin. This is the way to go. So much fun!
I had a blast on this tour! We had Tyler as our guide and he was so much fun that two people in our group actually scheduled the tour again later that week! I would highly recommend taking this tour and the bikes weren’t hard to drive once you got the hang of it.
I went on the tour of Austin with the Biker Gang Tour with my 2 sons and husband. We had a great time. It was educational and interesting and a lot of fun. Our tour guide was " Joe " and he was very knowledgeable and fun.
Tyler was an amazing guide and catered the experience to what we were interested in. From seeing the best murals around town to getting shaved ice! He had interesting stories and insights around all parts of the city we visited.
