It was fairly interesting. Our guide was very informative and friendly. The bats didn't swarm like we expected, so a little disappointed.

Our daughter in law took us while we in town visiting. We were not prepared for how AWESOME this tour was. Just an incredible thing to see. The guides were fun and the boats were clean. We highly recommend!

It is a decent outdoor activity for a family but nothing special about it. The tour offers good downtown views. You also see bats under the bridge but it's dark, it's hard to see and almost everything can be sighted from the bridge or the bank. Take this tour if you want to spend sometime in a pontoon without much expectations.

The Bat Tour was amazing. It was really cool to learn more about the local bats! Watching the bats take flight at sunset was something I’ll never forget. The sunset and views of the skyline were beautiful! I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone no matter if they are local to Austin or just visiting! We will be repeating this tour again. Thanks so much!

Holy bat cloud, Batman! This was a bucket list spot to visit for my son and I both. We had a blast watching the endless bats stream out from beneath the bridge at dusk. We love bats, and this is the most we have ever seen at once. I love how the local community has embraced these wonderful creatures and encourages others to appreciate them as well. Go watch the bats, you won't regret it. This made a great memory for us.
