worthwhile experience - I haven’t been kayaking in a while, so I’m really glad that I got to experience this! Suvana was a wonderful guide. She’s very knowledgeable about local spots in Austin and makes you feel comfortable instantly. Her friendly demeanor and eager attitude are the epitome of good service.

Colorful fun floating date night! - My husband and I had an incredible experience kayaking in the glowing/lit-up clear kayaks - 3/16 tour led by our guide, Patrick, of "ATX Get up & Go"! Our guide made us all feel very comfortable and safe-and stayed close to our group the whole time-commenting on the downtown Austin skyline, bridges, waters etc. He even took a couple of pics for us!
Was expecting to see more fish underwater but the waters were a bit murky. Did see some tiny fish closer to the shore.
Wear waterproof pants & a jacket- butt gets wet-not soaked-but wet.. and gets cool in the middle of the lake!
Amazing magical experience all the same -with the waters of Lake Lady Bird shimmering in the colorful lights from our kayaks, as well as seeing the reflections of the majestic buildings of Austin downtown & if you're lucky like us-glimpse of a full moon in the night sky!
Would highly recommend it for the adventurous, water-loving people, with atleast one of the two in the tandem kayak comfortable with rowing a kayak.
Thank you ATX Get Up & Go!

Got soaked but had fun! - We had a great time but should have dressed more warmly and worn a hat, gloves, and rain gear. I sat in front and got completely soaked from both the front and back oars. We still enjoyed ourselves and learned some fun facts. Our tour guide was great!
