Tyler was awesome! My sister and I had a ton of fun and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Most fun I've had while living in Austin. And that's saying something!
My sister and her friends were in town for her 30th birthday. We thought this would be a great activity and a good way seeing downtown Austin. I was not impressed with the places we visited but it was still fun. Our tour guide wasn’t the best guide. If you have a large group, you can schedule a private ride. Ask to go to all the popular murals in town. Tip: wear a bandanna. The helmets are gross.
This was a fun little activity to get the lay of the land and have fun doing it. Our tour guy was fun, and we learned all kinds of trivia and history about Austin. It had us going to spots that we otherwise wouldn't have known about.
These are fun to drive, easy to drive & are a great way to tour the downtown area of Austin! We had family in town from Wisconsin & this was an amazing interactive way to get everyone around! Tyler, our tour guide, added fun and energy to the tour! If you're weary of not knowing how to ride this bike, don't be. We all learned the day of and were on the road in 15 minutes!
Patrick led our food truck tour and showed us the best known locals way of doing Austin. The bikes were great fun. We'll worth it.
This was our last activity during our weekend trip to Austin and it was so much fun I wanted to keep riding all day! Joe was very patient in teaching us the ways of the electric scooter and his great attitude was very contagious. I can't wait to do this again the next time I'm in Austin!
This is the best way to see the city and feel cool all at the same time!! Much better than Segway tour as you dont feel like such a geek and learn about the city!
We participated in this adventure with our teen/young adult children and our whole family universally agreed that it was tons of fun. It was a great way to see the city of Austin, our guide was very friendly and funny, and my kids loved the stop at the Graffiti Park at Castle Hills, complete with a chance to spray paint things for themselves. (Spray paint provided as part of the tour.)
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
I spent 3 days in Austin and am sure that the Biker Gang Tour was the best activity I did there. It was super fun! Tyler was a great teacher and guide. Highly recommend!
My wife and I had a great time riding the fat wheel electric bikes. We were the only two in our group so we received a personal tour from our guide Tyler, he's awesome! Tyler was informative, patient, and funny he definitely made the experience worth while.
