Austin's Gem Bike Tour

Overview

Rest assured this adventure isn't just about beer. That's just the cherry on the top. We offer tons of fun quirky facts and stories on this adult sight-seeing adventure. Located on the east side of Austin's downtown, our highlights will include: The Treaty Oak, Hidden Austin Iconic Murals, Town Lake, and three uniquely different breweries. (Itinerary is incorrect because we could not add brewery addresses to timeline)

It is an moderate level bike ride. This ride does include a couple of hills, so be ready. But, fear not, there are three different breweries that will reward your riding efforts with cold brews. :) At the end of the tour, you will leave happy, refreshed, and educated.

Beers, bikes, helmets, and a knowledgeable guide are included in the price.

A girlfriend and I did the Gem tour and had a blast. We were an all female group including a bachelorette party totaling 10 bikers and brewski drinkers and Trace had no problem keeping us all in line and entertaining us! He kept us safe despite the crazy combination of lots of beer and biking throughout East Austin. We learned a lot and loved the easy 5ish mile ride through East Austin where we stopped and learned about Texas history in the State Cemetery and about Austin history as we gazed upon the Capitol Building. Overall, this is a great experience. Definitely bring your sunscreen and drink water at all of the bars! We were definitely tipsy at the end, so be careful!

I booked this tour for a bachelorette party in Austin. We all had an awesome time, and props to our tour guide Trace for putting up with all of us for 3+ hours. Trace went above and beyond to answer all of our questions and really catered the tour to our group which was awesome! Had great recommendations as well! Would highly, highly recommend - the food/brewery tour - so worth the value with all of the drinks and food (including alcoholic ice cream) that were included. Thanks again Trace!!

My wife and I booked this bike and brew tour as something different and fun to do while in Austin. Trace was our tour guide and he was super informative about not only the sites and the breweries, he also had a lot of cool tips for places to visit around town. We ended up going to a bar later that night to see a really cool jazz band we wouldn’t have known about otherwise. Highly recommend if you like history and breweries!
