What Paddlers Are Saying
We had a great night in the water with our glowing kayaks. The city view was awesome. Highly recommend kayaking with Get Up And Go Kayaking – ATX!
— Christy Ballard, May 2025
Our paddle out to the evening bat tour was relaxed, enjoyable; thus, unforgettable! Drew made our experience wonderful and we were so glad not to be a part of the other cheesy tours with max amount of participants and a guy on a mic doing a formal info tour. Not our style and we were so glad we went with Get Up and Go.
