Well worth it - bat bright was epic - We had a fantastic time on this tour. Mike, our driver, arrived in time and was super friendly and knowledgeable. After a drive through some of Austin’s hotspots, we then headed to the boat to join the bat viewing. Our host on the boat was fab, very entertaining. We were in for a treat, the bats put on a fantastic show!

Best tour guide in Austin! - Our tour guide Mike was so awesome and knowledgeable! We got to see parts of Austin we wouldn't have had time for on our own. The bats were amazing to see we understand now why they're a tourist attraction and because of Mike we got to try some local tacos that were the BEST! Thanks so much!

Fantastic Experience - We had a fantastic time. Mike was an excellent tour guide. Very thoughtful with multiple bathroom stops if needed. We had already explored some of Austin so he was very flexible and took us to some places that we hadn’t seen. We had a great time. We also really enjoyed the bats! There were so many of them …way more than we expected to see and our Captain was very knowledgeable as well and told us a lot about the architecture and buildings of Austin as well as some music history. Full disclosure, the only downside to this tour, which was not a problem for us is that it is not clear that you may start out with a small group for the initial tour then you join up with a very large group for the boat ride to see the bats. I do think that this is something that should be included in the information about the tour, but as I said, it was not a problem for us . We had a great time and would fully recommend the tour. The little touch at the end when Mike might picked us up was just Is the icing on the cake. Mike brought us some authentic tacos that were out of this world.

Well balanced chilled tour - Handy pickup and drop off at the hotel and seamless boat tour. Thought perhaps the drive before could have been a bit more interactive but that was the only slight negative.

My husband and I were... - My husband and I were supposed to take the bat boat cruise however last minute it was cancelled so they offered a tour with tacos and still see the bats river side. We were taken for a van tour around downtown Austin, taken to a taco truck and then to the river. We had no place to sit and eat the tacos so we took them back to our hotel and at that point the tacos were cold. The tour was no way near worth the $200 we spent for the excursion and so we were very disappointed. I will say that our tour guide Owen was wonderful, and we want to make sure to note that.
