Luxurious 40 ft Carver Yacht | Lake Travis, Austin, Texas
Thank you so much Captain DJ and Dane! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the sunset cruise. You were both so helpful, kind, and easy going. This was my first sunset cruise with clients, but it won’t be the last! We appreciate your prompt communication when I had questions. Getmyboat was an easy way to book! Thanks again!

Exclusive *Pavati* Charter - The one and ONLY in the USA! Surf, Cruise, Explore.
Chase was great! She helped us so much with renting out the boat, letting us know what we needed to do, and helped and offer in any way she could. We had the best time ever out in the lake. Boat was great for water sports and also to just stay on it and have a good time. Would 100% recommend to everyone, experience was amazing!

Had an awesome time with Captain Mike on the lake making great memories for our family! Went wake boarding and tubing and even hit the rope swing. Lots of laughs and good music and chill time on the lake. Will definitely do again!!

Austin’s Best Lake Experience! Watersports included - up to 17ppl
Freddie and his boat exceeded expectations! He was extremely communicative and flexible - we had a blast on lake Austin, surfing, cruising and even hit a rope swing! He offered a little discount in his quote and even went out of his way to take extra photos of me and my friends and took us over time through Little Italy so that my friends got to experience it! Will 100% be booking again and would absolutely recommend booking with Freddie!🔥🤠

27ft Sun Tracker Tritoon on Lake Austin *Only Lake Austin*
I have to say Jason at Happy Hour Adventures is one of the best times on the lake. He is very communicative, and everything is better than advertised. A fun boat captain, a stellar boat, and easy pick up and drop off. I highly recommend this guy! I will be using them again and again.
