The weather was perfect, my company was amazing (husband and our two kiddos). We took advantage of the free water taxi rides. It was a great way to see what was around the area. Our captain was so nice and knowledgeable. He talked to us the whole time we were aboard the boat. The lights were beautiful throughout the ride. The captain provided many details about the area around us. That was great for us newbies. They had 2-3 boats going at the same time. So we stood in line for about 45 min. When Summer comes around we may try to utilize it then as well. read less

I liked everything about our Bricktown Water Taxi experience, not least because the narration was supplied by a very personable and experienced young guide who obviously loved his job. I especially enjoyed seeing and photographing the Centennial Land Rush Monument. The water taxi offers the best way to see the impressive bronze sculptures of the monument, and the photo ops are spectacular. If good fortune returns me to Oklahoma City someday, I’m going to take the water taxi tour again and get more photos of the sculptures. read less

They did away with the wristbands. Your ticket is now emailed to you and can be scanned directly from your smart phone. You can also print the tickets from home and present it to be scanned. Our tour guide was Aaron and he was informative, funny, and engaging. I learned about OKC's history, the developmental progress, and future expansion plans. Aaron also pointed out things to do and restaurants to try out along the canal. So if you're new to OKC, you could start with this boat ride to give you ideas to add to your itinerary. The tour lasted about 45 minutes and was a nice relaxing break from walking around. I would definitely do this again the next time I visit. *Update: As Chad mentioned, you absolutely do have the option of hopping on and off along the canal. One of the passengers requested to be let off near the land run statues to take a pic during our tour and Aaron happily obliged. He docked the boat at the designated stop which is understandable. You can't just hop on and off anywhere for safety reason I'm sure. read less

It runs straight through the heart of the beautifully revitalized industrial area of Bricktown on the man-made canal that lends an interesting touch to the whole area of Bricktown! Well worth the price of the ticket and our tour guide was well worth the tip that that we left for him! read less

Bricktown was close enough to our hotel that the hitel shuttle provided transportation to the water taxi venue.There was a group of 9-10 of us visiting together having served together on the same submarine crew back in the 70's. The guide on the taxi was funny and we enjoyed ourselve (I will say though that the river taxi in Austin is much better). Anyway, we all had a great time and then got off at one of the many restaurants to enjoy a dinner tigether. Definitely and enjoyable experience. read less

I was completely in love with it last weekend! It’s beautiful along the way. I loved the bronze land run statues! They were amazing! The driver was fun and we learned something about our great state with a fun game. I would recommend this ride. You see business’s that you might not see or recognize from the street and you can get off and on for one price all day. Definitely worth it! read less

I was so favorably impressed with the Bricktown Canal and all the beautiful scenery, birds, restaurants, hotels and businesses in the Bricktown, Oklahoma City area. The Bricktown Water Taxi is THE way to take it all in and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
The quality of the tour guides varies with some being very knowledgeable about the history of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma City downtown and Bricktown itself while some "boat captains" are obviously rather new to the area and still learning. But nevertheless, I highly recommend the Bricktown Water Taxi. read less

The ride is peaceful and calm, especially when you find one that isn't too packed. It's not really a Taxi that pick-ups/drop-offs patrons around the canal but more of a tour of the canal.
The Bricktown Canal has been kept up very nicely and they are still updating the Land run Memorial, which the taxi will pass through on the tour. It's not a very long tour but it is pretty scenic. You'll pass under all the bridges and get some good shots of the waterfalls and such.
The prices are a bit up there and I think the guides/operators work for tips so be considerate of that. During the winter, they usually offer free rides.
Overall, it's a neat little tourist attraction to get a better view and some insights into the history of Bricktown. It's worth a trip if you have never been. read less

The taxi and clean and comfortable, the river walk is nice. Our tour guide Penny was so kind and funny. She explained a lot of historical facts about the city and the river walk. The horse statues were impressive. I will recommend to do it around 5pm so you will see everything and also the lights that go all over the river.
It was a 45 minutes tour. This is a must do I. Oklahoma City. read less

I did security for the bricktown canal 1999-2001, and I learned a lot about the new developments and coming developments! He had fun stories and funny jokes to keep everyone engaged! He created a fun and energetic atmosphere that even people walking the canal seemed to enjoy! The price was good...there are discounts for military and other group types. The waiting time needs to be better communicated. We finally left from a "20 min" wait 45 min after we began our "20min" wait. read less
