Our friends and I rented a Duffy on Saturday to hang out and do something different as they have a 2 year old. The check in was easy and they took the time to make sure we were going to be safe and be able to fully enjoy the 2 hour boat rental. The boat was easy to maneuver and we had a great time enjoying a few drinks and enjoying some snacks on the boat. It’s definitely family friendly or a full on party - it’s all up to what you want to do.Will definitely be booking this again. I’ll use them again when we have out of town visitors - great activity for them with awesome views of downtown.

I went on so many bat tours with Capital Cruises because every time someone came to visit me in Austin, I'd book it right away. It was the perfect way to show people a view of the city and have some fun in the meantime! Every bat tour is different and unique. And the views are gorgeous!

I was very happy with the cost of the swan boats that we rented. The workers were friendly. We were provided with an umbrella because it was a hot day. We were definitely told it was a leg workout but my husband handled pedaling for us just fine. We didn't go too far but overall we're really happy with this experience. I definitely recommend.

A friend booked the bat tour for me when I came to Austin to see her. This was a lot of fun even though we only got to see the scout bats. Unfortunately the winds were strong enough to keep the bats from heading out to feed that night. Even though we didn't get to see the bats the tour was still worth taking. Out guide was funny and knowledgeable about the buildings architecture along the lake. Was a nice way to learn a bit about the city of Austin.
