This was one of the most fun things we have ever done. What an amazing way to see Austin. Our O.G was Peanut. He was funny, full of great Austin facts, played good music and took some awesome pictures of us along out route. I was a terrible driver, but the bikes were pretty easy to handle, and I would still recommend this anyone old or young.
The guides of this tour are very enthusiastic and have tons of personality! Our guide was very knowledgeable about the city and food attractions. And the bikes were a blast.
This was one of the best downtown weekend activities we have ever done as a family! We booked our tour on a Sunday and took both kids with us. This was a dual father son birthday present and we all had a blast. Our guide was great and the enjoyment and experience we had was equally matched by what we spent for the tour. The motor bike was easy to maneuver and thankfully there is a good amount of practice before getting on the road. The stops along the tour were awesome and our guide provided a thorough and interesting commentary of Austin and Texas facts along the way. This is absolutely worth every penny and an experience you won't forget! I would recommend definitely checking weather conditions and dressing comfortably.
I do a lot of traveling. And I taken a lot of Tours. This by far was the most interesting and the most fun. First of all its extremely hot in Austin so taking a tour during the day is out. Doing this tour at dusk was phenomenal you get to see all the lights you get to see the bats and get to ride with some excellent music and a phenomenal tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable I even asked off the wall questions and he knew the answers. If you can only do one tour in Austin this is the one you should do.
Our group of 8 adults (6 drivers and 2 riders) recently had a blast touring downtown Austin with Patrick, a former elementary school teacher turned biker dude. After making sure we all felt comfortable on our bikes before heading out, he said his three goals for the day were safety, education, and fun, and he exceeded our expectations in every area.In addition to the standard Austin downtown landmarks, he also pointed out lesser-known sights including a flock of Mexican parakeets sporting bright green plumage as well as their incredible public library, which we visited at his suggestion after the tour was over. (Best library ever! If you have time, go check out the views from the gorgeous outdoor lounging area at the top of the building as well as the innovative features of the actual library, including a kiosk that will dispense random reading material based on the amount of time you have to read. Wow!)The Voodoo Donuts stop halfway through the tour was a well-timed and delicious break, and the cooler bags full of ice-cold water he provided at the YBG location came in handy. Besides being a knowledgeable tour guide, Patrick is also a great photographer, and he captured the day in numerous pics (group and individual ones) to help us remember this wonderful experience. Since our accommodations for the week were actually in San Antonio, we only spent one day in Austin, and I can’t think of a better introduction to the city than cruising around it with Patrick. Don’t think twice – BOOK THIS TOUR!
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
Holy cow! What an amazing way to explore a city! This is very unique and different from other tours I have taken, where you usually get talked at for an hour and you just snap photos that you'll never look at again. Using electric scooters allows you to truly immerse yourself and be involved with the experience. Our tour guide Tyler was very accommodating to what we wanted to learn about Austin and a great teacher for learning how to drive the bikes.I would recommended booking at the beginning of a trip, because Tyler showed us stuff we would've never known to visit without his recommendations.
Jo (our tour guide) was awesome, the bikes were the best to get around the city. Everybody enjoyed this activity!
Went on the 3pm tour this weekend. Tyler was awesome. His super high energy level carried the group through a chilly ride. Fun way to see the city!
Fun at its best! Enough instruction to make you feel comfortable and confident even if you never rode a mini bike before. Saw sights we may not have found on our own. Laughed from start to finish!
The coolest, most badass way to tour Austin! The tour guides are energetic and knowledgeable about the area- had our group of girls turned to biker chicks before the training was completed. This will definitely be an activity on the agenda next visit to Austin!
