I loved this experience! Jon was upbeat, knowledgeable about Austin, and customized the ride to the interests of his group. I highly recommend!
Tyler was our tour guide and he was hilarious, fun and super entertaining. We took our kids with us (6 & 8) and they loved every second of it. I highly recommend doing this if you are visiting Austin! You wont regret it!
Was an overall great experience Tyler did a great job! I definitely recommend riding with him as he adds to the experience great energy and very knowledgeable of the downtown area.
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!
Great Ride! Fantastic Gang Leader. No experience needed to ride the bikes. Very fun and informative. Would do it again!
Very fun trip with knowledgeable and friendly staff. Patrick was great !!! We toured the city & Patrick gave us very detailed information about different sites and landmarks throughout the city. Had a blast !!
I have never ridden a motorcycle or moped- so was a little worried. No need to be worried! They teach you how to ride! Each tour is tailored for the group. We got to see so many interesting pieces of art, parks, and hear stories about interesting buildings. My 12 yr old son and I did this together while on vacation. We had only planned to do it once, but we found a way to fit in a second tour a couple days later! It is the best way to introduce yourself to a new city or see a city in a different way. My friend who has lived in Austin for 10 years didn’t know about some of the history and she saw new pieces of art via my photos from the tour. Worth doing more than once! More
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
My wife and I joined our biker gang for a tour around Austin while visiting this past weekend. We had a blast! Cope and Joseph were fantastic hosts and guides! I highly recommend this experience-you will see some areas of Austin you might not otherwise experience, all while riding electric powered mini bikes through the streets of Austin!
What a great experience!! Tyler was our guide and his enthusiasm and tunes made for a fun ride. Would definitely do it again. Take the time to do this, it’s definitely worth every penny.
This experience is a blast! Where else can you lean back on your own fat boy and cruise the City without a license to ride? Granted, they top out at 20mph and your guide takes pretty good care to make sure you don't end up in crazy bad traffic.We went out on the morning trek with Justin. He did a great job teaching us the basics before we hit the road. It is important to remember this is a 'tour', not just a ride. Consequently, you make several stops during the tour to dismount, chat and take pictures. In addition, you only move as fast as the slowest rider. Unfortunately, they don't subscribe to the theory of Survival of the Fittest.Justin did a fine job explaining little factoids about the city as we tolled around. Our group was most interested in scenery and music, so those are the sites that he spent most of his time on. The only regret I have is I would have liked the option of cruising around a bit on my own at the end and just letting the bike fly down the streets. I think 20 miles per hour may be understating the performance of these beasts, but we never really had a chance to find out. More
