Boat Tours

With friends and family by your side, sit back and soak in the candy-colored sunset from the bow of a luxurious boat where it’s BYOB&B (that’s beer & barbecue, together…Yes!) Bring your favorite beverage and food to grill!
There’s a ladder going up to the top of the boat on the 15 person Barge or a spiral staircase on the Double Decker to the top floor so you can climb up and have that belly flop contest with your friends you’ve always imagined!

Whether you are looking to have a family-oriented relaxing time or you are looking to party like it’s 1999 with your college buddies, we have you covered. We specialize in making you feel comfortable no matter what the occasion you have in mind is. Birthday parties, Bachelor parties, Anniversaries, or just lounging on the lake with friends and family are all perfect for this fun excursion.

We also offer services such as pick-up and drop-off at Party Cove from our docks near Carlos N Charlie’s or other public spots. DO NOT risk getting a BWI on a boat rental when you can have us take you around. If you missed the party barge or need to leave the party early, it’s no problem.

We had an excellent day out with Captain Tom! He was thoughtful to our needs and helped ensure the family had a safe and enjoyable time.

We loved jumping off the sides of the boat and using the slide! We will definitely be back again.

We had a wonderful experience last week with Austin Boat Tours. Special shout out to Adam who was our Captain. There were 17 of us with the youngest celebrating her 10th birthday. Adam couldn’t have been more sweet to her and the rest of the gang. Cooking for us and making sure we all had a great time. He was professional and kind. We hit some bad weather coming back in and he handled the situation with total control and we all had complete confidence in him. We will use Austin boat tours next time we are in Austin. Thank you for a great day in the lake!

I planned an outing with Austin’s Boat Tours for myself and 4 friends. The owner Angel was so easy to work with and very accommodating. We booked a party bus to take us to and from the lake. When all the party buses ended up getting taken by prom-goers just days before our trip (totally out of her control), leaving us without one for our trip back to Austin, Angel went out and bought a 9 passenger limo to make sure we were taken care of. Seriously! Who does that?!?!

Our bus arrived at our condo about 20 minutes early and the driver Ken was terrific, allowing us to stop along the way to pick up some alcohol which was all we really needed as Angel provided everything else. Upon arriving at the marina, we were greeted by Jessica who made sure we had everything we needed. Everyone working at the marina was super nice and very accommodating. Our captain Andrew couldn’t have been nicer or more chill and once we were out and anchored in the cove, he cooked all our food. And our bartenders were awesome. They made sure we had fun and were always attentive. Hot off the grill burgers and dogs, cold beer, our music blasting, the day was a blast and couldn’t have been any better except for one thing: it came to an end! 4 hours went by way too fast!

I planned an outing through Austin Boat Tours for my boyfriend’s 30th birthday…and it was definitely the highlight of our trip. We got the party bus they offer to pick us up and bring us back. It was so stress free trying to get to the lake and back, and no one had to be DD. The bus on the way there was spacious and we all had a blast playing our music, drinking, and just hanging out. The bus on the way back was similar to a coach bus, with separated seats. It was definitely nice, but we under the assumption it was going to a party bus on the way there AND back, so it was a little disappointing. The ride to lake Austin was breathtaking…Austin has some beautiful natural scenery on the way.

Once we arrived, it did take a bit for us to actually get on the boat and onto the lake, however they made sure to give us our full 4 hours. Our captain, Santos was awesome! He cooked up our dinner for us, joined our boats to another bachelorette party and another 30th birthday party and we were all hopping around and enjoying each other’s company. We also ran out of alcohol towards the end of the 4 hours, and he even made a pit stop for us to pick up more alcohol. It was such a blast and I would definitely do this again if I am every in Austin!!!

What can I say that everyone else hasn’t? This was the highlight of the bachelorette party weekend. The service of being picked up at our hotel and driven to Lake Travis (about 40 minutes from downtown) made it so easy. Our group was a bit wild and very loud, but the captain and bus driver ensured we were safe. We all left with the feeling that it was the most fun we’d had since college.

My only complaint is that I did not like being taken to dock up with other boats. We weren’t asked, but rather just told that was how it goes. I honestly don’t know if this was a choice given to the coordinator of our group, but if not, it definitely should be something to ask when taking reservations. We were a boat of females flanked by two boats full of dudes and it was just…not my ideal situation.

We booked the boat tour for a bachelorette party and it was AMAZING!! We had great service from the beginning to end. We didn’t use their limo service, but instead had another limo drop us off to Lake Travis. After a de-briefing by our captain, we got into a double-deckered boat. The boat was definitely spacious and we had ample time to play games, drink and go into the lake (coming off the slide in the back!). They even have a little toilet on the boat.. it was pretty hilarious. Our captain’s name was Chris and he was really great! Our stereo broke down in the middle and they were able to fix it for us!

When you get to the destination point, there are a bunch of other party boats there and they can link up and have a party – Be sure to put away your valuables. We put away our purses into the cubby’s on the boat, but our Bachelorette’s tank ended up on a neighboring boat somehow…

The slide off the back into the lake is a charming touch! Overall, a really great way to spend the afternoon in Austin.

Tip: bring some games to play, ice, a bottle opener, sunblock, hats, etc.
