Once you get in line, the boats swing by every 20 minutes or so - so be prepared for the short wait. Once on board they're very clear about the rules-stay seated, hands inside at all times, and have fun.
After taking this ride, I want to go again! The time to go is an hour before sunset so you get the golden hour when the rays are at the perfect height for beautiful light. It makes for better photos and cooler temps in the OK hot sun. The history, the art, the commentary - were all more than I expected.
For anyone with family in town, take them! This is a must for tourists, locals, and parties.
Did I say parties? Yes, because they rent the boats by the hour. read less

I've always seen the boats on the canal but didn't realize it was a tour as well as a ride. We had a great captain, Morgan, who made the ride a lot of fun and entertaining. The scenery around the canal is quite beautiful and is particularly nice around dusk. I'd recommend to out-of-towners and residents who would like a new view of our great 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

Cassidy did a good job of relating the history of the area in a fun way. It was interesting to see the additions to the Land Run statues and we always enjoy the waterfalls. The price is reasonable with a small discount for seniors and children. Enjoyed the ride. Tickets can be purchased on your smartphone rather than standing in line at the ticket booth and are good all day. read less

We went on it as we were touring Bricktown as a family outing for our small two day trip in Oklahoma City. Lots of history and beautiful photo opportunity!
My only complaint is they didn't tell you right away if you wanted to be dropped off along the tour to let them know (another amazing feature) but since you get unlimited boat rides I wouldn't put this against them as you can get right back on and get dropped off. read less

Our boat driver (we think his name was Dennis, but we're not sure. He's the one with the long hair who grew up in OKC) was AWESOME. He was funny, tried to make us feel welcomed from San Francisco, and told us interesting facts about the area. We wish we had cash on us because we really wanted to tip him...

He made the ride very memorable. I grew up in Oklahoma and took Oklahoma history in school, but I learned so many new things on the boat tour. The sculptures representing the land run are amazing. If you're in the area, it is a must try!!  The price was very reasonable and gives you an all day pass. You can get on and off at any of the boat pickup areas. It would be beautiful to see during the holiday season. read less

Boy, were we pleasantly surprised! The entire Bricktown area had a great vibe and a lot to do. The boat tour was a great "orientation" to the area and Ryan the boat captain did a great job giving us the history and info about different attractions. We did go on a Sunday morning, so it was not crowded and pretty quiet. A great way to rest your legs before touring the city/area on foot. Loved seeing the statuary and artwork they have incorporated along the canal! read less

Due to the age difference, there are not a lot of things that both boys truly enjoy doing together, but the Water Taxi was one that seemed to be a "hit" with them. Our guide for the day, Cassidy, gave a great tour of the canal and had just the right mixture of humor and information. 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 had a blast and the driver was awesome. Most of the canal is lit up with Christmas lights, and the driver played music at the beginning and end of the ride.

Loved seeing the birds, ducks and geese along the route. Our guide was engaging and well-informed and made it fun. The ride itself was not too long so it was easy to do (45 min maybe?). Taking the water taxi ride first really gave us a good feel for the shops and restaurants that align the river so we knew what we wanted to go back and experience further on foot after the ride was over. We did this in the day time but would like to do it again at night. More read less
