Fun Way to Explore Austin! - Awesome experience with Austin Bike Tours and Rentals. Signing up online and communication were easy. They made sure our bike was a good fit and they had a selection of helmets. Our guide, Trey, was entertaining, very knowledgeable and had great energy. As an Austin native and history buff, Trey was a wealth of knowledge about the various sites and historical landmarks. Trey was also very patient guide as I am a beginner/intermediate rider and he always ensured our safety on the road. If you have the time, this is a fun way to explore Austin. I wish I had more time take the Lady Bird Lake bike trail. Next time!

Trey was amazing and knowledgeable - I had a fantastic time on the Austin bike tour with Trey as our guide! The route was about 8 miles total with plenty of great stops along the way. Trey was incredibly knowledgeable—not just about Austin’s rich history, but also about what’s happening in the city right now. He gave us tons of great recommendations for food and activities, which was especially helpful since it was our first time visiting. Trey was the quintessential Austin local—part hipster, part artist, part musician—and his passion for the city really showed. I especially loved that he incorporated local music into the tour, adding to the experience. Whether you're new to Austin or just want a fun and informative ride, I highly recommend this tour!

Fun and Safe! - The murals were amazing! Lady Bird Lake was spectacular! We even saw a sailboat on the lake which is actually a river. Our tour guide, Trey Abraham was cool as a cucumber and ridiculously knowledgeable. I learned so much about the town, geography, history, ghost stories, local music scene,etc. He even gave us recommendations for places to eat, where certain bands were playing and where to find good beer. We were just three ladies in our late 30's to mid 40's. One of us hadn't ridden a bike in ages, one of us hadn't ridden a bike in over a year and one of us is a triathlete. We all had a great experience and this was mainly because Trey was VERY diligent about our safety, which I greatly appreciated. He called out to pedestrians and drivers alike to let people know we were coming. He also warned us when to be cautious of car doors opening so we wouldn't get "door checked." The two of us who have never ridden bikes on a street did great! Also, there are two way bike lane and bicycle shaped traffic lights in downtown Austin! It's amazing how bike friendly the infrastructure is there! Trey did a fantastic job and I would totally go on another bike tour with them.

A Great Way to See and Learn About Austin! - We had a fantastic time on the Austin Icons Bicycle Tour. Our tour guide Trey was very knowledgeable and was able to provide a detailed glimpse into local history and lore. His insights into the local music and art scenes were great. I wish we'd taken the tour a day or two earlier, which would have allowed us to benefit from his suggestions. If you are visiting Austin, this is a great way to see and learn about the community. Auto traffic was very light and the ride felt very safe. The terrain was very bikeable, even for a flatlander like myself. I highly recommend this tour as a great way to see and learn about Austin. Happy Trails!
