Our “captain” was late, drunk during our rental and crashed. He doesn’t even work for this company. They just sent him out there because they overbooked. If something would’ve happened to us they wouldn’t even be liable

Great time with tied up rentals. The captain Wes was seriously awesome. We need sup in devils cove and cypress.

This was my first experience renting a boat ever and I was not disappointed. Reserving a pontoon online was incredibly easy and informational. I received a text 2 days before with more information as well as our captain’s contact info. Justin was our captain and he was extremely communicative and got us on board safely and with ease. We were celebrating my partner’s 40th and since we’re an ‘older’ crowd, we expressed that we didn’t want to be near Devil’s cove. Justin took us to a nice secluded spot for us to hang out. There were a ton of people driving their speed boats and jet skis recklessly and Justin took his time to get us to our destinations safely. We were all super impressed and on top of that the guy is the sweetest! The pontoon was clean and comfortable. It fit 8 people who overpack nicely LOL. Superb experience and worth every penny.

WES WAS THE BEST!!!!! Picked up the slack when our original driver cancelled. Couldn’t be more considerate to make sure we have a good time, and also stayed safe. He saved the day and we were so thankful!
Caroline M., 2 years ago
Wes was absolutely amazing! He made sure we were all safe and comfortable throughout our entire boat tour. We were so lucky to have him as our captain! Definitely recommend this company for anyone looking for a good time in Austin!! 🙂

You can’t go wrong with Tide Up. Everyone was very responsive and helpful, especially with a last minute booking. Captain Drew was great to our group and we had such a fun afternoon on Lake Travis.

We rented a boat through Tide Up for a friend’s birthday and everything was amazing! Management was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. Will definitely book again in the future!

Rented for birthday, we all had such a good time! Perfect birthday celebration. The captain was awesome, he took great care of us. Great staff, very accommodating. Boat was nice, played music, had a lily pad, everything we wanted! Definitely recommend!
Rikki R., 2 years ago
Tide up boat rentals was absolutely the most accommodating company! Wes , our captain, was super nice. Would hand us drinks when we were out on the Lilly pad and even went the extra mile by allowing us to add an extra hour to our time. We can’t say enough good things about our time! Ask for Wes!

Anwar made booking a breeze! I had seen a couple places offering 25% off their rental but I’m so happy I chose Tide Up! Nothing can compare to the experience I had with T.U., booking was easy, the holiday rates were surprisingly affordable, the response time via text and email was quick and our day on the water was stress free. Our captain, Wes, was also very responsive and helpful. He made us feel safe, took our pictures, passed us water while we were on the lily pad and even changed the song when we asked him lol Wes was the best! PLEASE TIP YOUR CAPTAIN, they work hard and above all they get you back home safely. Most importantly the party cove we went to wasn’t packed at all and our boat was well distanced from the other boats and revelers so we felt comfortable. I def recommend Tide Up!

Best decision ever made while visiting the area, if your in Austin and want to experience the lakes of Austin look no further. Our driver was awesome, knew all of the great spots to go on the lake, and the boat was very nice and clean and just all around a great experience, I will definitely be returning next time I’m in the area.

Tide Up, was amazing. I used them this past weekend while in Austin and I’ll be sure to use them when I return for the summer. The owner and captain of the boat was super accommodating and helpful in regards to boat safety in which I know nothing about. Lol.
Jacquaan M., 5 years ago
My brother and I made a trip out to Austin for a quick foodscursion and learn about tide up boat rentals through some of the locals. Man, am I happy we made the call because the experience was absolutely amazing, and the pontoon life is definitely for me now!!!!
William Z., 5 years ago
Visited Austin recently. Had been hearing about the party boat thing. So we decided to try it ‍♀️ And wow…smh, I’m so freaking glad we did!

Awesome experience from start to finish. Different from the norm (which was half the appeal for me). The girls were charismatic, fun and exciting. Totally professional. They made the whole experience exciting and entertaining.

Would definitely recommend to anyone in and/or visiting the Austin area. Had a great time with our little group. I imagine a few more friends would have just made it even better!
