Took my 16 year old on this tour. Didn’t expect to have so much fun. John, our guide, did a great job of instructing and guiding. Felt like we were in a eco-friendly biker gang. Lots of looks from the people on the streets. Would do this again in a heartbeat. This is a great family activity. Can’t recommend high enough. Skip the Segways. This is a lot more fun and doesn’t make you feet ache. Easier to drive as well.
Signed up for this as a way to see Austin and do a good tour. After some patient training we took off. Tyler, our guide, was excellent, and safety was always a priority! We signed up for the food truck tour and were a bit surprised that we didn’t visit more and the one visit was optional. I think there could be more clarity in what the tour is and is not. Overall, we would highly recommend this as an option to see the city!!
Tyler was an awesome guide. He made us all feel safe and sound through his safety and test driving before we set out on the open road. This was a great way to see the city in a fun and informational way. I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Austin city area looking for a unique and fun way to see the city! Great way to make teens happy on a "tourist" trip :)
I'm not really into tours, but I LOVED this experience. Joe was our tour guide and he was amazing!! Joe took all the pictures for me and my fiancé. This was our first time in Austin and within this tour, we would have not have seen all the cool places that Joe should us. Trust me, its worth it!
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
Came here as our first stop in Austin to get the lay of the land on our girl’s trip. The bikes were easy to use, Patrick was an awesome instructor and guide. We had a blast!! Highly recommend!
Probably my favorite thing we did in Austin! I recommend doing this the first day you’re visiting because they take you all around the city and show the highlights... from Rainey Street to the capitol building to Barton Springs. They are incredibly friendly at the HQ, and our guide Cope was amazing!!
Rooster was awesome. Had so much fun cruising around the city! A great way to get to know the city, definitely recommend the food truck one
As locals, we enjoyed the ride through the city at a different view!! Patrick has a great sense of humor and was the perfect tour guide - highly recommend for a date around town
Loved this tour! Rooster was the perfect guide - kept it fun, educational and safe. What a great way to explore Austin! The next day walking around, I had my bearings because of the comprehensive tour. Added bonus of tips on the speakeasies of Austin!
Absolutely the best way to see Austin. My brother, cousin and I rode around town and had a blast today!
