I booked this as something fun to do while visiting my 25 yr old son for the weekend. Was looking for an activity that he would enjoy doing too, while giving me a nice overview of downtown Austin. We did the 9am tour on a Saturday in June, which was perfect. It hadn't gotten hot yet, and there wasn't much traffic. Our guide Tyler was great - a perfect mix of knowledgeable, enthusiastic and silly.
This was by far the highlight of our trip! SO MUCH FUN!!! The 2 guys, Peanut and Gator, were excellent. Fun and funny and knowledgeable. First off, they took us through how to ride the bike. Very safety conscious. And were very attentive throughout the tour checking in with us to make sure we were ok. Once I got over my initial nervousness of riding the bike (I've never ridden one before) I relaxed and it was easy to ride. Seriously, not hard at all. And I'm a small woman, only 5' tall and had no trouble whatsoever. And then we were off on the streets of downtown Austin. We stopped throughout the 2 hour tour for Peanut to shows us stuff as we went. There were 8 people in our "gang". And honestly the funnest and best thing we did in Austin. I can't recommend it enough!!!
I gave this a 5 star review because my friends loved it. I liked it too, for as long as I could muster the nerve. The guide was knowledgeable and compassionate. When I decided to give up he locked the bike up and offered to get me a ride. I opted to walk and enjoy the city while my friends sent texts of all the fun places hey’d visited.
This a MUST tour in Austin! They have different tours of Downtown and we choose the Food Truck tour. There are so many food trucks for all types cuisines. You learn a little of the history of Austin, eat great food and ride a bike. The staff is super cool and they take great pictures for free! They welcomed us with plenty of water bottles, bandanas for some coolness and some gloves. As for Cope, he is fun and knows all the spots to have fun. I will definitely ride again.
My husband and I were visiting Austin for the weekend because his company has an annual party that we come down for. My husband, Donte, booked our Your Biker Gang tour and before we got started I was very nervous. Our guide, Joseph, was awesome. He made sure I left comfortable riding before we got on the road. He was also very knowledgeable about the city and as an elementary school teacher I also loved the background and history of the city. We stopped at the park to see the city skyline, Riley road with live music and bars, sixth street and Hope Outdoor Gallery. I would definitely recommend this to people who are adventurous and want to see cool spots in the city of Austin!
What a fun way to see Austin!! Our guide let us have quite a bit of input in where we went, and we ended up seeing some great sites throughout the city.
One of the best experiences in all of Texas! Full Family Fun!!!! Great tour, Great Guys, Great Time, and Great Ride!
We were referred to Your Biker Gang's Fat Tire tours by an employee of mine. On a couples trip in late April we participated in the Food and City tour. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather and we loved our tour with Patrick. The bikes are easy to handle and safe to ride. We got to see many parts of the city and we really enjoyed ourselves. I think the tour was 2 hours and it could have been twice as long. Highly recommend this if you are looking for something "different" to do while in Austin.
8 friends from Toronto booked this tour and had a fabulous time. Our tour guide GATOR(aka John) made this tour memorable. His energy and personality provided our group with 2 hours of fun, laughs and good times. Gator made this experience awesome!!Highly recommend this tour!!!
Definitely do this!!! What a blast we had and Tyler was a hilarious, engaging and informative guide. We loved every minute of our ride!
This was a fun little activity to get the lay of the land and have fun doing it. Our tour guy was fun, and we learned all kinds of trivia and history about Austin. It had us going to spots that we otherwise wouldn't have known about.
