Flawless Execution of a Tour
A few themes that you will find in other reviews of Texas Bike Tours are Deaton's uniquely tailored experiences, thorough planning, and attention to detail; I wholeheartedly agree with all of them. My contribution to the accolades is her flawless execution of a tour with an additional level of complexity - one involving three generations, including the need for a...

Special Experience for my 50th Birthday
I found Texas Bike Tours on Trip Advisor and reached out to Deaton over a year ago to plan a bike trip for my 50th birthday. I'm the planning type and wanted to have a great experience for my big milestone birthday. Deaton worked diligently with me to set up a bike tour for four couples through Fredericksburg to the...

The most perfect day on bikes!
We had the most wonderful day with Deaton & Dennis. We chose the 50-mile gravel ride in Castell. It was absolutely beautiful - the wildflowers were amazing. From pick up in Austin at Mellow Johnny's to drop off, we experienced a 5-star day. The bikes we rented were great, the food prepared (for special dietary needs) was delicious, the ride...

What to do with 12 family members in town?
Take a bike tour, that’s what! We contacted Texas Bike Tours and arranged a family outing. A number of participants were from out of town. Where do you get bikes for all? Not to worry, Deaton, the tour company owner got the stats on what we needed and had the bikes and helmets waiting for us. We arrived in Hyde...

Perfect way to preview Austin!
This was an amazing tour that was customized not only to fit the locations we wanted to see, but matched to our personalities. Through email correspondence, Deaton learned about our group (two couples) and laid out the perfect route for us. The route included some of the tourist hotspots, but even better, included off the beaten path sights that suited...

Best road bike guides on a bike tour.
This group of friends take annual road cycling trips all over the world. Temecula, Solvang, Tucson, and Italy are a few trips they mentioned. They enjoyed the TXBT custom-routes designed with their cycling experience and comfort with cycling in mind, the SAG wagon that followed with the nutrition they enjoyed, and the camaraderie they developed with the local guides. The...

Wonderful Austin Overview
Deaton is the most engaged bike tour operator we have experienced anywhere. Her objective is to get every detail just right so her clients have a memorable experience. We have been quite satisfied with bike tours we have taken in cities all over the world, despite most of them being "cookie cutter" and many time in groups. Deaton's tour will...

The Best Mother-Daughter Trip!
I chose Fredericksburg to spend two days with my daughter and another mother/daughter based on Trip Advisor's reviews...and I can't say enough about our experience with Texas Bike Tours! From my initial contact, Deaton went above and beyond to customize our bike/culinary experience. down to the gluten-free granola bars, mint water in our bottles and cold rosemary towels upon our...

Perfect way to see the city!
Deaton is so attentive to every detail of your tour. She plans the route based on your personal interests, whether it be history, art, nature, or food trucks! Also, Linda was such a knowledgeable and enjoyable guide. We would have never seen so much of the city in a weekend if we did not take this tour. Seeing this city from the biking trails gives you...

An amazing way to spend your day!!!
From the first point of contact it is clear that owner Deaton Bednar desires to give her clientele an experience they will remember forever. Not only is she a literal hive of information on all things "Austin" ( having lived there for over 35 years) but this is one funky cool lady!!!   She has created multiple biking packages for every level of biking enthusiast...

Bike Tour and Romantic Dinner for Two
I wanted to do something special for my husband's birthday, and thought a bike tour would be a perfect way for us to share something he really enjoys. I connected with Deaton and explained what I was looking for - she took it from there and created an amazing experience that we can't stop talking about! We had a two-hour...

Anniversary of Opposites
This was the best activity!  Deaton and her crew created a perfect experience!  I race bikes; my husband didn't own a bike.  The experience was a 10 for both of us.  The history, the locations, the attention to detail was first rate! Every tour is unique and custom.  We had a special anniversary dinner prepared.  Again, first rate.  You must...
