Lake Austin was so beautiful to see! Specially loved little Italy! And of course our Captain Tom made it more fun :)
Excellent experience for my family
It was a great day for the boat ride but highly disappointed that the tour guide did not provide time for a swim as described. Instead we stopped midpoint to drop off and pick up others taking away from our allotted time.
Man hands down the best experience in the lake. I have never seen little Italy and it was very impressive. If you are going to book the this excursion be sure to ask for Captain Tom. He’s the best at what he does.
Tom is amazing he did his job well and he is handsome too😊
Great experience tom is a cool guy
Tom is super cool! Great 1st time experience 👍🏼
Excellent experience, Tom was a great guide.
Capt. Tom was chill and the tour was both educational and fun for this family of 4.
Very accommodating to our schedule as the weather was a bit off and on with the rain. In the end, we got to enjoy the 2 hour ride and it was fantastic!
