First time in Austin decided to do a tour of the city via bike tour. Our tour guide Peter was amazing. He has so much information about the whole city. Highly recommend him!

I was very impressed with this tour. I thought we were going to ride around Barton Springs but we ended up riding 9.98 miles all the way to the Capitol building and around downtown after riding around Barton Springs.
The electric bike made it so easy and I never felt fatigued.
The tour operator brought plenty of water, and that was very welcome, but we also stopped at a couple of places to get food/water/refreshments along the route.
This tour was definitely worth it and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys riding around on a bike.
(They also have one of the softest dogs at the shop. She's a good girl.)

This electric bike tour covered a lot of ground! We went from Barton Springs all the way up to the Capitol. It was definitely the highlight of my trip.
Allan_W, Jun 2026
Parking was a bit of a challenge, but otherwise a great central location near the heart of the city center. The staff was friendly, our tour guide (Zac) was professional and informative, and the bikes were in good condition. Our 3-hour bike tour covered a lot of ground and some key spots, I felt satisfied that we received a good overview of the city. There were only two of us on the tour, both of us were introverts, so the tour was a little subdued. But otherwise a good tour and highly recommended.

Jody was an excellent tour guide and had fun and interesting stories at every stop. I felt we were on a bike ride with a friend. The tour gave us a fascinating glimpse of Austin and the three hours went by in a flash.

Easy riding. Beautiful riding next to the river and learning about the bat bridge. Not too many hills.
Donyelle_J, Apr 2026
This was the perfect tour for us. First time in Austin. The 2.5 hour tour was excellent. We saw so many great places in a small amount of time. The e-bikes were easy to maneuver. Would recommend this tour. Our tour guide Michael was very knowledgeable.

The tour was organized to include parks and urban areas of downtown Austin. Our tour guide, Michael, provided excellent guidance and was very informative. I highly recommend this e-bike tour.
Martin_R, Mar 2026
A great way to see the city of Austin, Mike was a great guide very knowledgeable with Dad jokes thrown in for free. Pace of the ride was comfortable , I was given the option of going faster, but I’m on Holiday..👍👍
Charles_S, Mar 2026
Toby was so knowledgeable and fun. He took us to so many cool places! Highly recommend this tour to visitors or locals.
Dani_H, Mar 2026
Michael is a great guide with intimate knowledge of the toured area and he is very patient with new riders. His timing at stoplights to tell us the story of the city around us and resume riding when the light turned green was almost scary. Great tour and great guide!
Clint_A, Mar 2026
Peter is a great guide and very knowledgeable about the history of Austin. We would definitely do the tour again.
Camry_J, Mar 2026
It’s a really scenic tour. Our guide, Rob, was knowledgeable about all the interesting history of Austin. It really shows what makes Austin special in a fun way.
The ride is well worth the money. It is long, but if you need accommodations your tour guide will help!
Alessia_R, Mar 2026
Thank you Peter, you have been an entertaining tour guide with the electric bikes! Hope to receive those 2 photos you could shoot on my behalf with your phone, as I left mine, out of charge ... Thank you!
Daniel_H, Mar 2026
I toured around South Austin, downtown, and the State Capitol and it was a lot of fun! My tour guide Michael was nice and knowledgable. You will bike along the water and it may get chilly and windy, so prepare to bring extra layers and even gloves if you have them.
Blanche_F, Mar 2026
We are new residents of Austin and decided to take this bike tour and be "tourists" in our own city! It was a wonderful, interesting experience. Our guide Toby provided excellent information and insights. The bikes were easy to ride, the route was mostly NOT in traffic, and the pace was good.
Melissa_G, Mar 2026
Good tour but Michael needed to slow the pace a bit...riders were lagging behind and at one point took us right smack through the middle of protesters! Agh!! Not sure if this was part of the route or plan but definitely should have been avoided if possible.
Joanna_R, Mar 2026
Our guide Michael was amazing. We saw the best parts of the city and it was so much fun to ride an E bike for the first time.
Melissa_S, Feb 2026
v e ry nice experience. I enjoyed during two hours and visited some beautiful places in Austin. Pieter is a very nice guide and I have learned from him.
Staci_N, Feb 2026
Great e-bike tour and a perfect way to see the entire area! The ride was equal parts dedicated bike paths through the vast parks and on dedicated bike lanes in the city. We also rode on quiet neighborhood streets with unique homes. Peter was a terrific tour guide as he was very informative, funny, and safety conscious. He took time in the beginning to make sure everyone got familiar with the bikes, and then stopped at regular intervals to discuss & describe various points of interest. Overall, it was super easy and you definitely see a lot in those three hours!
Symone_K, Feb 2026
Great e-bike tour, worth it! Austin’s bigger than expected—perfect way to see the area. Def Recommend!
