Have no fear, an experienced and trained Party Bike Captain will drive the bike and keep things safe, legal, and fun so your group can focus on partying!
Your Party Bike Captains do work for tips and aim to provide an excellent experience for our guests! You can either add a tip in advance when making your booking, give your captain cash, or let us know to add it to the credit card on file after the party. Many of them also have Venmo or other convenient cashless options! It is always greatly appreciated for a job well done!
Yes! We have a rocking sound system and LED lights for the perfect party ambiance. Our tablet that hooks up to the system is full of music from every genre with tons of songs and playlist options for you to choose. Make sure to bring a good DJ!
We can fit a maximum of 14 passengers on board the bike, but require a minimum of six people to pedal the party bike. Non-private parties and pub crawls (based on individual tickets) are tentative until we have the minimum number of riders. There are a total of 10 pedaling seats and 4 non-pedaling seats. So if you have someone in your group that can’t pedal, no problem!
We will notify you 24 hours in advance if the reservation cannot be confirmed and will issue a refund if that is the case. We recommend being flexible with the time so that we can pair you up with other groups to reach the minimum needed! Individuals or groups that are too small to be confirmed MAY be bumped to another time in favor of a confirmed private party and we will notify you if that occurs. In that case, you will have the option of getting a refund or changing times.
Pub Crawl Age Requirement
The minimum age for all parties booked by individual seat involving alcohol, including pub crawls, is 21 years of age or older. Riders must present valid ID to the captain when signing the release waiver before the start of the booking. Nobody under 21 is allowed on board a pub crawl.
Private Party Age Requirements
Private parties may have people under the age of 21 on board, typically for family events and teenage birthdays. If alcohol is involved, the people under 21 may not consume alcohol, must wear a wristband, cannot enter any bars, and must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian (NOTE: this does not mean an older sister who is not a legal guardian). If at any time a minor is suspected of consuming alcohol by the captain, the entire reservation will be immediately terminated, no refund will be issued, and a $100 early termination fee will be charged.
Infants and children who require a car seat or booster seat, typically under the age of 8, will not be allowed on board the party bike. Children above the age of 8 but under the age of 12 may be required to sit on the back bench with the seat belt on next to an adult.
Our locations are very close to where the parties and pub crawls operates. The exact location / meeting spot for the parties in each city are included in the confirmation email that you will receive after making your reservation.
In general, all reservations begin and end at our location unless indicated otherwise. For example, the Old Town Pub Crawl in Scottsdale ends at the final bar, which is near our location. Please check the itinerary of the service you are booking for specific details.

Private parties can take the party bike to any stop that they want to go to in our operating area! If you have a few favorite bars, just let the captain know where to go. Want to try something new? Ask the captain for a recommendation! Most groups can make it to up to three stops with about 25 minutes at each stop.
Pub crawls with multiple groups on board have a set itinerary of three bar stops that cannot be changed.
