Best Lake Travis party boat rental service ever! The captain was awesome. We had a great time for my girlfriends bachelorette party.
Stephanie Dolan
Book them now! This is our second time going with Good Time Tours and we will continue booking with them in the future! They're fantastic. Easy going and outgoing crew and captains. Very responsive and engaging. Kris walked us through everything and answered all of our questions. We then had the absolute BEST time out on the water with Captain Dave and Captain Anthony! They were incredible - safe, reliable, hilarious, and an all around blast to be around! They even threw us new drinks while we were partying on the lily pad! Other boats legit said our captains were the coolest ones! Highly highly recommend - would give 10 out of 5 stars if possible.

This was the most perfect trip. We did 3pm tour that started with a party and ended with the most beautiful sunset. Captain Chris was the bomb and can throw a deep eddy cocktail perfectly onto the Lilly pad so we never had to leave the water. He was an excellent Grillmaster and the perfect host. Vibes were perfect and would recommend 10/10.

Good Time Tours pontoon boat rental service is the best! We were able to bring our own drinks in a cooler and had a great afternoon cruising Lake Travis. Captain Kris kept things safe and fun. Best bachelorette party I have been on.

These guys are great! Best Lake Travis party barge rental service ever! The boat was nice and clean, they grilled amazing food, and made sure we were all safe. I planned the boat party for my friends however didn't have to do anything. The party boat captain Kris gave us top notch service as well. Thank you so much for a great time.
David Dreyfus
Thank you Captain Chris for being the best captain on the water. I had the best time of my life. Would highly recommend this place to anybody if they are trying to go out on Lake Travis and want to have a great time. Captain Chris made this so special for us he even grilled all of our food to perfection. Don't hesitate to book this company they will take great care of you. Unlike any other boat rental company in America. Hands down the best
Jennifer Jenks
We did this boat experience for my bachelorette party, there were 13 females from the age 25-65. We had Captain Dave and he was awesome!!!!! We weren’t sure what to expect but the whole day exceeded our expectations by far!!!! We went to the party area of the lake but chose to not hook up to the other boats just so there wasn’t so many people we couldn’t keep up with our own party. Captain Dave was the best dj/bartender/entertainer and more! He made our whole weekend and I cannot wait to do this again. I highly recommend this to EVERYONE! Thank you so much Captain Dave and Captain Kris for the MOST unforgettable weekend of my life!!!

I planned this for my best friend's bachelorette party in October 2021 while we were Austin, TX. We all had a fantastic time! The area was so beautiful. Our captain was great! He cooked our food for us and was very attentive if we needed anything. I would definitely recommend any group to do this rental here. I also have it on my list for next visits to Austin.

There’s a lot right outside of the marina where you can park for $15 per vehicle. But let’s be honest, you should probably Uber.
If you want to cancel your party barge rental we’ll be sad, but we’ll survive — as long as you as long as you follow our cancellation policy.
No. If the number of people you have is more than 17 you want to invite on a boat then you need fewer friends. Our double decker party barges don’t have the design, length, or weight for over 17 and must comply to occupancy rules.
All parties must arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled party boat time for departure.
Your time starts when you booked, not when you arrive — and the ship will sail without you.
We will suggest itineraries however the destinations are your choice. Places we typically go are Mansfield Dam, The island, the Oasis at sunset, Hippie Hollow or Devil’s Cove, lake restaurants, or whatever your choice for your passengers to swim, float, and create some memories.
We will not be wakeboarding or tubing, kayaking, or renting kayak.
Make sure to give yourself plenty of time (at least 4-6 months in advance). Reservations fill up quickly.
