took my girlfriend on a date via the biker gang to recant her childhood time in Austin after 12 years and she loved it. she visited Austin once in her childhood and loved it. When she came to visit for the holidays this was the perfect date and Tyler was the perfect host. We had a blast and will be back!
Our ride was so much fun! Dennis was our guide and was very informative and personable. The weather was great and we just had a good time riding around the city looking AND being looked at by others! We did a couple other tourist attractions, but this was by far the most fun. Highly recommend to all ages. My husband is in his 60's and me in my 50's. Haven't done anything like this in years...
We did the electric mini-bike tour with Tyler and it was really the highlight of everyone's trip. 6 adults (ages 54-23) and one 12 year old rider. A few of us picked it up right away but it was good to do the "training" so everyone felt comfortable. Then we were off and running. Got to see fun sights - get on and off and take pictures - and even made a stop for coffee. Tyler gave great information on the sights - and offered up a lot of humor. He let us design our own tour and asked what we wanted to see. Everyone in our group agreed - best city tour we have ever done and we would do it again. 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 parents were visiting and this was the perfect way to show them around the city. A comfortable ride and friendly, thoughtful outgoing tour guides made this the highlight of our trip! We did the morning ride which was nice because it was cooler and traffic was lighter. I highly recommend this excursion over pedalhoppers or segways (I’ve done both). Tyler and Reagan were our guides and were GREAT. Knowledgeable, fun, and also mindful to keep our large group out of the ways of cars, joggers and other bikers. Book with them if you can!
This was a great fun way to see Austin. The guides were really fun and informative. The bikes were a blast and we learned interesting stuff about the city.
What fun! This is a must while in Austin. Gramps (Tyler) was a fun and energetic tour guide. Because of this tour we went to the city library, which is beautiful, and so unique. We never would have gone to the library! Just Do It!
Such a fun way to see the city! The guides are super-fun and knowledgeable, the bikes are easy to ride, and you get to see Austin neighborhoods both on and off the beaten path. Highly recommend!
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.
A great way to see Austin! So much Fun! Our guide, Dennis, was absolutely delightful! Highly recommend.
Highly recommend. Major fun and a great city tour. We had a group of 10 family members with 7 Bikes. The bikes are really cool - Easy to ride and control but feel more like a motorcycle than a bicycle. Great to cruise around like a "gang" owning the streets. Our tour guide was great, he made it fun and interesting and we covered a surprising amount of ground. Highly recommend this tour to all group types, from couples to large groups as a cool way to see and experience the city. We were also able to hike our minor children comfortably and safely with us which is a real plus for families.
