This was easily one of the coolest day group activities I’ve ever done and Austin Tour Company’s excellent guides made it even better! The guide team achieved a great balance of fun and organization and knew their audience expertly well. We had 75 rowdy twenty-somethings and they rocked it! Highly recommend ATC for all of your group activity needs!!

Amazing tour guides. So convenient to have a chartered bus to take us to the drop off spot on the river and to pick us up when we were done. We had a group of 70+ and enough coolers for all of us as recommended by the guides. Such a relaxing and fun time on the river. Book with them!

Daniel was our tour guide and he was AMAZING. The first gas station we stopped at was out of ice, so the bus driver drove to H-E-B and Daniel provided ice for the entire group. He was very professional, responsive, extremely hospitable, and funny. Austin tour company was very organized. Will definitely go again!!!

Awesome experience! 5 stars. Had a blast. Clean and cool bus on the way there and back. We had a very large group and she took great care of all of us. Caitlyn was very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend.

This was a fun trip. Patti was amazing and provided us with quick details about the pick up and locations. When we experienced a bus hiccup she quickly adjusted time with another bus. The VIP bus was great. Nice a/c comfortable seats is the way to go.

It was relaxing afternoon. To me this wouldn’t be a regular idea Yet with out of town friends can be a nice change of pace.Unfortunately there was one slip —No ice was available when arriving to the start of the float. Plenty of coolers but no ice so what’s the point. And as I understand that was part of the ticket price. I would have brought my own ice and cooler, I just didn’t know that was possible - I didn’t ask - so that’s on me.I feel ☀️ kissed and mellow now so for sure I would recommend this, but just plan / ask if you aren’t sure about something.Cheers 🍻

Austin Tour Company had the best service! My friends and I went on a river float with them and they were very professional and accommodating. Our friend was injured and they helped us get into the water and made sure everyone was safe and having fun. Our guides Hannah and Tony were great.

Horrible experience--$85 for a floating trip and they dont even provide decent tubes and rope to tie together. Spent most of the time paddling frantically with my hands trying to catch up with my friends. Also, lost my phone (it dropped out of my tube since these were donut shaped tubes with no bottom (cheap--wasnt expecting that or I wouldnt have brought my phone) and the guide in a kayak refused to help me turn back to fish it out of the water. Avoid at all costs! Just buy your own tubes and rope and go for free on your own.

I purchased my ticket last night for the event today, and from the moment I started the process until the minute the shuttle dropped us off after the day was done, it was a great experience. I also ended up losing my key in the river, and the event staff was extremely helpful in remedying that situation. I highly recommend Austin Tour Company and Texas State Tubes.

We had a blast with ATC on the Big Gay River Float! They are always so helpful and friendly. I mistakenly purchased the wrong tickets, and when I contacted them, they immediately fixed everything. On the day of the float, somehow we missed the announcement our yellow-dog bus was leaving. When we asked about it, they let us get on the VIP bus so we wouldn’t be left again. Thanks Sessy Tony! Can’t wait for another float trip with ATC.

We went on the Deep Eddy trip and had a blast! There is no distillery tour but the place is super fun to drink at and share the afternoon with friends. Our guide was Layne and he was great!!! He made it such a enjoyable experience and the bus ride was so much fun. If you do go on this tour be sure to get on the bus that Layne is on, he will make it a great afternoon even if you are a bunch of guys who miss the bus!!!

Yall, I cannot say enough about how great Austin Tour Company is. We bought tickets for a Deep Eddy experience which was awesome! Purchasing tickets was super simple. Then, you show up at a bar and a super fun dude gives you your wristband. They even coordinate with the bar you are picked up at for some drink specials. Our tour guide was awesome, definitely added to our Sunday Funday experience. I think what was most impressive was their customer service after the event. I may have left some things on the bus after enjoying myself on Sunday. I sent them an email to recovery my items and got a response back the same day! They coordinated with the bus company and driver to locate our missing items, going above & beyond to help a drunk chick out. Support local and book a tour! You cant go wrong with a BYOB bus, & fun staff before having an adventure. THANK YOU!!

I love all Austin Tour Company experiences, recently my friends and I took a bus to float the river and it was so much fun! Transport down was so simple and easy and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The float was a blast and all of the stress of planning was taken off of our plates because Erin is SO AMAZING with details and logistics. She was so friendly and awesome to work with to plan the perfect day. It’s definitely worth it to take the bus- let us all enjoy ourselves and not worry about transport to and from Austin! Would absolutely book again.

We went on the Float Trip, 07/21/2019, and had an amazing time! Kelsey, our tour guide was awesome and kept us safe throughout the whole float! I would highly recommend this trip for a large group of friends that would like to drink but play it safe!

The distillery was a fun place to drink. There was no tour of the distillery or anyone to tell you about the process of distilling vodka per the description of the tour on the website. Enjoyed our day but would not reccomend this unless you are just looking for a quiet place to drink vodka. The bus was clean & the driver very nice.

Austin Tour Company is great! I’ve done a few of their experiences in the past and always having an amazing time. Most recently, I floated the river in San Marcos. It’s so great floating knowing that you have a safe ride home, and the staff are super friendly and on top of making sure that everyone has a wonderful time! I would definitely do another experience of theirs.

Drag Queen Bingo on Mothers Day was the most fun Ive had in a long time! Everyone with ATC was so nice and made sure that we had a good time. Miss Colleen was a fantastic Bingo hostess! Those Deep Eddy Bloody Marys were delicious! Thank you so much for a great afternoon!

Great company. My husband and I went to Austin and while looking online I picked them because they are better priced than others. Unfortunately, my husband got sick before the floating the river trip. The ATC was beyond professional, and I was very impressed with their customer service. They have great packages and we will be using them again in the future.

Our group float trip was a total blast! We floated down the San Marcos with Kelsey and Jonathan as our guides. Everything was very easy, from pickup downtown Austin, to stopping at a liquor store on the way to the river, to having a cooler and cooler tube ready for us. Kelsey and Jonathan were great guides, and Kelsey made sure we were all prepared to have the best float possible. It was one huge party on the river. Wouldnt recommend if youre looking for a quiet, peaceful float. The whole experience was wonderful. Thank you Kelsey and Jonathan!!!

Super fun, chill day in the river! The staff person, Kelsey, was super awesome and everything was so easy from check in to drop off. Only suggestion is starting just a bit later on Sunday so that the group can buy beer after 12 (maybe the traffic gods were just in our favor and we got to the stop early but we had to chill a bit after getting a stern talking to by the shop staff).

I have been to Austin twice and seen the famous bats 4-5 times... the Bat Boat was the BEST! We had an amazing time, got to sample some local food and drink, heard some cool #batfacts, and enjoyed one of the best possible vantage points! Great value for what you pay and would 100% go again!

I am a highly-satisfied customer of this local business which is owned and operated by two very competent and caring women. Let me share with you why I feel this way:I had a very negative customer experience yesterday with Texas State Tubes, whom ATC contracts with at times to run their tube/float trips. Erin (of ATC) called me at my hotel to inquire about my experience and expressed her deepest sympathies. I felt that she understood very well what TST had put me through earlier in the evening. She offered no excuses and assured me she had already arranged to discuss the incident with TST the next day.Though it was not ATC or its staff that was responsible for my negative experience, Erin sent me a high-dollar Uber Eats gift card in the evening and personally delivered breakfast to my hotel the next morning with a heartfelt message. This meant very much to me and, truly, has made my last day here in Austin feel very special. Erin, thank you so much for your kindness and for going above and beyond in your customer service.If you want a high quality experience in Austin with unparalleled customer service, then I recommend that you choose Austin Tour Company.
