    Austin Rental Boats delivers consistently exceptional experiences on the water, and their captains clearly make all the difference. The reviews paint a picture of a well-oiled operation where the staff genuinely cares about creating memorable outings. Captain Mason gets particular praise for his tours through "Little Venice" and his excellent communication before trips, making sure guests show up prepared. One solo traveler even mentioned how tranquil and enjoyable the experience was, proving this works just as well for individuals as it does for groups. The other captains earn equally glowing mentions. Brandon stands out for his welcoming nature and local knowledge, with multiple guests raving about sunset trips and his relaxing demeanor. Captain Riggs, Captain Chris, and Max all receive similar kudos for being pleasant, knowledgeable guides who know how to show people a good time on Lake Austin. The boats themselves come clean and well-maintained, exactly as advertised. With perfect ratings across the board and guests specifically calling out staff by name, this operation has clearly mastered the art of the guided boat experience. Whether you're looking for a peaceful solo outing or a group adventure, the consistent quality and attentive captains make this a solid choice for getting out on the water.

    Captain Riggs gave us such an amazing boat tour on the Colorado River in Austin. He explained everything in detail and made the experience so enjoyable. We had a great time and definitely want to do another tour with him! 😍
