Fun adventure! - Forrest was a great tour guide. The boating excursion was amazing and a lot of fun! Really glad we went. The company needs to provide information and instructions on parking.

Enjoyable - It was a beautiful evening and a very enjoyable way to see a part of Austin. (The site didn’t mention that parking was across the street, which would have been helpful.) Forrest did a great job as a guide.

Very enjoyable cruise. - Forrest was an excellent tour guide. He taught us a lot of valuable information. My sister and I had a lot of fun. The boat was very clean and comfortable. We had a great time on the water and are talking about going again. I would suggest that the company post a sign about where to board. We arrived a few minutes early and the boat was not docked so we didn't know if we in the right area since there was no sign posted about the boat tour. Also the company needs to provide instructions about parking. We had to figure out where to park and had to pay $5 for parking because we did not see any information posted about parking.

Beautiful setting, laidback pave, great tour. - Beautiful timing. There was not too much boat traffic - easy to park and launch from the landing. Suggest golden hour timing - the Lilly pads, trees and wildlife were just beautiful. Many different architectural sights to enjoy and Christopher went at a perfectly slow pace for us to enjoy everything.
