I had a great experience taking a tour of Austin on an e-bike! Paul and Cody were my guides and I lucked out getting a private tour since I was the only one on the tour. We went around some notable spots in Austin and I got to enjoy it all on my first ride on an e-bike. We were able to chat about how e-bikes work too. I live in Austin but haven't been able to explore the city the way I've wanted to due to the pandemic. I still learned some new things from Paul and Cody though and it seemed like they had been guides for a long time (but surprisingly relatively recent! But still so knowledgeable and their passion for the city was clear). 100% recommendation from me!

Hands down this is one of the best activities in Austin! We arrived at the bike rental and they accommodated me with a smaller bike due to my short height. I was so grateful! We met up with the group and met our tour guide Michael. We stopped at all of the cool spots and revived a ton of historic and trivia facts about Austin and the state of Texas. We stopped at all the cool murals, stopped by Barton Springs, rode to the capitol and even stopped by UT’s campus. Michael was the best guide. He made sure we were all capable of continuing the ride, provided us with bottled waters and amazing facts! I highly recommend this for all residents and tourists!

Mike the guide was great. I regularly ride a traditional bike but really enjoyed the electric bike. It really made the ride more enjoyable since you could pedal hard if you chose to get the exercise or you could let the bike give you all the extra help you want.
