Kurt was so nice. It was a great evening.

Hi Rachel, A sunset sail on Lake Travis sounds absolutely delightful! I am thrilled to hear that Kurt was kind and provided you with an evening that you will not soon forget. Let us know when you’re ready to get back out on the water! Cheers to you! Elizabeth

Our captain was AMAZING, and the excursion was wonderful and relaxing!

— Elisabeth S | Sep 08, 2019

We had a great time on our cruise. Having grown up in Seattle and been sailing up there, it was quite different "sailing" on the lake, but still a good time. We really enjoyed looking at all of the homes in the area (our first time on Lake Travis). Our captain was very nice and we enjoyed his company. However, we didn't originally realize that we'd all three be close together hanging out the entire time. So, if you're looking to do something romantic with you and you SO only, I'd look elsewhere. There's no real alone time as the only seats are at the back of the boat where the captain is driving. We wish that this would have been more clear upfront.

Chip with Texas Sailing took us on a great sunset cruise! We loved it so much my husband wants to learn to sail. Chip taught us how to steer and about sailing in general. He also answered questions about the lake. He was calm and kind and made sure we had a great time. The boat was clean and felt very safe. We will be sailing with them again soon!

We had a FANTASTIC time! The captain was so knowledgeable and friendly, and the evening was perfect. So happy to have been able to "purchase" this experience with my credit card points. I'd do it again!
