Overview

Welcome to Austin's #1 Booked Experience. This 2.5 hour kayaking trip through downtown is magical. We start by paddling the length of the Austin skyline during the golden hour, then stop to watch the sunset. We then get into position for the best bat viewing and give a speech all about the bats just before they all fly out. We can usually time the bat flight perfectly so you have more time to explore the rest of the skyline. On the way home, we encourage you to take your time and take a few breaks to watch the cities lights come to life when the skyscrapers turn on their lights.

What's included

  • We provide the kayak, paddles, life jackets and lights. We also take high quality photos for you and send them to you at the end of the night.
