We had an awesome boat experience! Captain was great and made sure we had a good time on Lake Austin, and Todd was super communicative to coordinate with and always very timely with answering any questions I had. Would highly recommend!

Great ride. Wess was awesome! Had some small hiccups with the park ranger. But that was resolved after a call with boat captain.

After days of comparing all boat options in Austin (literally), James & Amanda’s boat was even better than expected. PROS: —In comparison to others: min 2 hr option, dogs allowed, no captain option —BOAT: Very nice, appears new, sun cover that spanned boat, provided cooler w/ waters & ice —PARKING: Easy meet up/docking spot with plenty of parking —DIRECTIONS: Direct and easy instructions for boat drivers —Great communication CONS: None. Will 100% book again and recommend.
