We reached out for a large company event, and Bill and his team were so accommodating. Not only were they able to handle the scope of the event, but they made sure that our team had a fun, memorable, and safe journey through Austin. Would highly recommend seeking them out if you're looking for a uniquely Austin experience!

Amazing and fun tour! This is a great way to see and hear art and history around the hip spots in Austin. Trey was top notch as our born and bred Austin guide -- giving loads of insight into the local music scene and everything from music venues to breweries.

Tour was great! Knowledgeable, safety oriented, and enthusiastic guide led our group of 12. The tour leader had an exceptional understanding of the culture, art, and musical aspects of Austin with a good grounding in history; a useful context for the 2.5 hour ride. Not overly strenuous on the ride yet we covered a lot of territory.

We started our time in Austin with this bike tour and it was really fantastic. Trey was our tour guide and he was energetic, knowledgeable and fun - he played / shared his favorite local music and many general recommendations. We were a group of 12 year olds and Moms and our tour included all ages - anyone comfortable on a bike can participate.

What a perfect way to see the city! We saw so many great parks and murals and buildings but the best part was Trey’s infectious enthusiasm for the stories of Austin. The biking was not too strenuous with frequent breaks. Trey had a speaker with a running soundtrack of tunes by local artists that added an extra dimension. I did this tour on the first day I visited the city and felt like I had a deep dive into Austin’s unique vibe.
