We had 7 people raning in age from 16 to 62 years and all of us agree it was the best thing we did. Rooster was our guide and after a short lesson we were off to explore Austin. We learnt about the city - saw the sights and got to ride the very cool bikes. Rooster kneew the best spots to stop and take pictures. It was great to be part of a biker gang!!!!!
I was with a group of 7 people and we had SO MUCH FUN! Cope was such a great guide and really made the whole tour awesome and fun! I highly recommend doing this if you’re looking for a fun way to see the city.
This was the #1 thing we did in Austin! I’d highly recommend it. And the guide “Peanut” is awesome!!
My wife and I had a great time if you are thinking of doing it do it we are going to book a private tour for my wife's birthday
We saw this tour was rated 5-Stars and couldn't agree more. Tyler did a great job of pulling together a group of experienced riders and beginners - locals and out-of-towners -everyone had a great time. He took us from SoCo to the Capitol and east to west - stopping at interesting spots along the way.
It was a unique way to experience Austin and our guide was wonderful!! We had a great time and felt super cool doing 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
More than a real sightseeing tour of any heft, this was more a chilled out bike ride. But if you haven't ridden on one of these types of fat wheel electric bikes, it's quite fun. Worth the cost if you're two people on one bike.
Highly recommend and will absolutely schedule with family and friends again. Cope was the best! Down to earth, fun and made the ride a real adventure!!
Jo (our tour guide) was awesome, the bikes were the best to get around the city. Everybody enjoyed this activity!
My wife and UT student daughter took the fat tire mini bike tour with Gator. F see un trip around Austin. Bikes are easy to ride but can ride double if one is uneasy with the bike. You are riding on streets with cars but Gator was very safe and we never felt nervous in traffic. Great way to see Austin. They have some different routes so not sure you always see the same things. Highly recommend the adventure and Gator was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Good times.
