We had a great time getting the “lay of the land” by cruising around the city with the gang while listening to music. Patrick quickly taught us how to safely operate our electric cycles and then led us to various spots for photo opportunities or interesting city history. We did the city tour and would do the food truck tour the next time. (Patrick...One small suggestion, add ‘Born to be Wild’ to your music playlist. )
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!
Our totally uncool, non-biking group of 50 year old guys had a reunion weekend in Austin. This tour was definitely a highlight of the trip. Started promptly and was all that it promised. Our group captain and guide, Tyler, was informative, funny and engaging. Even the least-balanced rider had a blast! A must-do if you're looking for an outdoor activity to see and get the feel of this amazing city.
Excellent trip. Justin did outstanding job guiding us around town and giving us history lessons as we went. He took us to a great place to see all the bats fly out from under the bridge. Definitely a fun time. You’ll be glad you did it!
Had a great time on the tour, recommend 100%. Tyler was a lot of fun, made the tour great. Took my 18 yo nieces and they had a ball!
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!
A great and fun way to explore Austin whether you are a local or a visitor. The place is easy to find and our guide, Cope, texted and emailed several times to see if we had any questions and to introduce himself. Once we arrived, he went over how to use the bike and safety instructions which included wearing a helmet at all times. We practiced riding and turning in the parking lot and then hit the road for an amazing fun filled two hours!!! Cope showed us some interesting sights around Austin and stopped for photos as well. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something fun and memorable. More
My girlfriend and I took this tour together when we were in town for the weekend and had a blast. The weather wasn’t the best as it was cold and drizzling, but that lead us to have our own private tour and our guides still put in a ton of effort to make sure we had the best time. The tour is very customizable, and the motor bikes were a ton of fun. Definitely a great and unique way to see the sights. And really a good bargain, especially since you pay per bike and it seats 2 people. Highly recommend.
Our tour was Friday morning during SXSW week - weather was perfect... Our tour guide was Patrick, he was GREAT, friendly and informative. I learned several factoids about Austin. We will definitely do it again, but next time will try the food truck tour. Great activity for families of all ages.
We loved this Trip. Whole Family had fun. Kids enjoyed it. Guide trained on bikes and then took us through different parts of Austin. He was fun, Listened to us and showed places that we asked for. Only bad part was weather. At 9 AM , it was bit cloudy and chilly but light jackets helped.
Daniel (aka Rooster) made learning how to ride and tooling around Austin great fun. He was knowledgable and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour!
