We had an amazing time! Our tour guide, Tyler was awesome!! He was knowledgeable, fun, and VERY PATIENT! He is the absolute best!
Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. I planned this for my husband’s birthday and we lucked out cause we were the only two riders. Thanks for a great time!
This was an amazing way to see Austin while getting to do something totally out of the box. I'm a total klutz and was scared I couldn't do this. Tyler was an amazing guide and gave me the confidence and support to ride this bike! Highly recommend!
IF YOU’RE in Austin take this tour!!!! The guide is awesome and knowledgeable. I would do this tour over and over again!
It was a awesome experience riding the bikes all around town. Literally easy to ride. Our guide Cope was a lot of fun and quite informative on historical sites and events around town. Would do it again fo sho
This ride was so much fun! Joe, our Road Captain, made sure everyone stayed safe AND had fun. (As a mom/teacher I know firsthand how challenging it can be to keep those two in balance...LOL) I cannot say enough about how enjoyable this was. My only regret is that we did the ride towards the end of our trip. Doing this ride the first day would have given us a better perspective of Austin and a list of things/places we would have loved going back to. So my advice would be: Go join the bike gang as soon as you touch down in Austin.
I had a blast on this tour! We had Tyler as our guide and he was so much fun that two people in our group actually scheduled the tour again later that week! I would highly recommend taking this tour and the bikes weren’t hard to drive once you got the hang of 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
Tyler has a great energy and he is an amazing motivational speaker. One of our teams mates had a hard time and didn't want to ride but Tyler talked to her for 2 mins and she was all in afterwards and she did a great job! It was sooo fun and never felt unsafe
If you are planning a trip to Austin, do not miss this fun filled "biker tour" of Austin. Your hosts will make sure you are comfortable riding the mini-bikes. Tyler and Justin were both awesome instructors and tour guides.
Just a fantastic way to learn about the city of Austin.Gator was an excellent guide and thoughtfully adapted my tour to match things I'd mentioned earlier.It could have been a slightly sad day on my own ( I'm on a business trip - don't know anyone here). Instead I found myself laughing with Gator as we rode the streets to Starship "We built this city" and other well chosen music.The bikes are easy to learn. I'm mid 50's and never ridden a motor bike, so it can't be hard.I'll be back when I'm next in town.
