Absolutely amazing experience!!! Our "gang leader" was Patrick and was just awesome! He was so friendly and very knowledgeable about Austin. Patrick explained everything exceedingly well and thoroughly. He is just straight up an awesome dude. This experience is worth MUCH more than what we paid for. Definitely will be revisiting next time we're in Austin!
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
We had so much fun doing this electric bike tour with Justin! He was so much fun and you could tell he was very passionate about making sure everyone had a good time and was comfortable and safe on their bikes. We were a little nervous at first, but Justin was very encouraging, helpful and patient with beginners! After some practice, we were on the road, and boy did we have a blast! Justin showed us some unique spots around the city that we would have never seen on our own. We highly recommend this tour to anyone- whether you are an experienced or beginning rider. You won’t regret it! Thanks to Justin and the rest of the team for making us feel comfortable and welcome and for showing us a great time. It was definitely a highlight of our trip! More
Enjoyed it very much. Trip plan covered most of Austin's landmarks. The guide from rooster was very good.
Fantastic tour with Pat and Justin. Got to see a ton of the city while having fun and learning a lot. I would do this tour if you are in Austin!
Justin, our tour guide was nothing short of awesome. Super enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and straight up fun. Would definitely recommend!
My husband and I took this tour, after we had done a few Segway tours in other towns. The guide provided good instruction and fun facts of the cool things that we were stopping to see.
We had a great afternoon! Much quicker and fun way to get an overview of downtown Austin. Lots of Instagram ready pics and a super fun guide. Worth your time.
The ride was awesome and we saw some really cool things about a new city. I would totally suggest anyone heading to Austin check into this!
Had a good time seeing Austin from the electric mini bikes. Rooster was a great tour guide. Only thing, he did not use the biker names given to us. Highly recommend this and the tour with Rooster.
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.
