It was so much fun. The tour guide (Jon) gave us some history, fun, and of corse some iconic graffiti of austin. Never going to a regular tour again.
You guys are awesome - a fun way to see som of the sights in Austin. Would highly recommended to anyone.
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
Our tour guide Jon was incredible! This was the highlight of our four days in Austin. We got to see and learn so much of the city- not to mention that our guide gave us some golden recommendations for the rest of our time in Austin. The bikes were soooo fun and easy to learn. Jon showed us the best kept secrets for pictures and hidden gem art installations. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the city or even just a local wanting to see it in a new way. Such a great experience!
I recommend this tour to anyone visiting Austin or a local who wants to learn more about the city they live in.
We had an amazing tour with Tyler, he was hilarious and informative. Bikes are so much fun and easy to ride. Fantastic way to see the city! 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.
This was SOOOOOO much fun! My husband and son absolutely love anything on two wheels (segways excluded :)) What a great way to see the city of Austin, and learn some of the history. Our guide, Joseph was amazing, incredibly patient and very knowledgeable. This was definitely the biggest highlight of our first trip to Texas! They make sure you are comfortable and have a working knowledge of the bikes before you head out. I really couldn't think of a better way to see this amazing city and learn something along the way. This is a "must do" if you visit the Austin area!
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.
I highly recommend this adventure. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and completely helpful. The ride was fun and exciting and had great music. It was very enjoyable for the whole family we had ages ranging all the way from age 6 all the way up to 57. Will be definitely doing it again. You guys rock
Had an awesome day today with Joseph as our guide. He knew so much about the city and made the ride really fun. Would definitely recommend as an awesome way to see Austin.
