Our captain Marcus had a great sense of humor and had historical knowledge about Bricktown that we never would have known. I definitely recommend finding a seat under the tarp, it was comfortable there. The sun was beating down pretty hard and I think I would have gotten a sunburn if I hadn't of been under the shaded seats. The whole process from getting the tickets to getting off the boat was very smooth and easy. We paid $15 for a 45 min. Boat ride. Worth every penny! You can also bring your drinks aboard, which is nice.

Our tour guide, Anitta, was great! She was very fun and shared great tid bits of history and info. We went at 4:30 on a Saturday and our ride was perfect - not too packed as compared to other times. I definitely would recommend purchasing a ticket, at minimum, a couple hours or even days prior to going. I could see this being much more popular in warmer months. It was already very popular at the beginning of April on a colder day. Overall, if you are checking out the Bricktown area and want a fun activity to do, check out the water taxi! it's only 30 minutes and you get to see the whole area and then some!

Wow!!! What an amazing experience! Right here in Oklahoma City we have a cocktail riverboat cruise…read more The location is off Lincoln close to the Devon boathouse! Plenty of parking and very accessibility to riverboat. I purchased tickets online and arrived 10mins before take off. The boat wasn't crowded and seating was ample in an indoor air conditioned covered room. The bartender was at the back of the boat and drinks were inexpensive. It was a beautiful evening and everyone was friendly and courteous on the boat. Overall a great outing for me and my hubby. I'd love to come back for a girls evening out or with other couples... it was a good time!

Oklahoma River Cruises did not disappoint! It was our first experience cruising the river and…read moredefinitely not our last! The Captain and First Mate were very friendly and knowledgeable. The weather was a bit gnarly but that only added to the experience. There was only one other couple besides our party of seven so social distancing wasn't a problem at all. Everyone wore masks and the boat was incredibly clean and sanitized between each cruise. It was AWESOME to watch the boat dock when they came to pick us up. The Captain and First Mate obviously work beautifully together as a team. We felt safe, we had a great time, learned some fun and interesting Oklahoma River facts and we're pleased with the value of the experience. We'll be back!!

Adventure abounds 2.5 miles east of I-35 on 15th street in Edmond. Here, the street ends and…read moreArcadia Lake begins. This 194 acre spot is one of the best kept secrets in the OKC metro area. A trip to Lake Arcadia can be a modest affair, staying in the car driving through the park around sunset, maybe walking out on the dock watching the sun fade away for the day, or it can be an all day adventure with boating and picnics and barbecues. Early on in 2020 we realized we needed to renew our park pass for Lake Arcadia as we could see this may be a loooong year (boy, we were right on the money). Eighty dollars will get a vehicle in the park for a year if you are an OKC resident. Edmond residents can buy a year park pass for a 20% discount per year (about $64 dollars). This gets you unlimited entry into the park. I'd highly recommend it. I've always said one of my most favorite parts of living in Oklahoma has been the celebration in the sky at the end of daylight ringing in that night is upon us. I'm not from Oklahoma and I will say that the sunsets here are second to none. This park, especially the dock facing west next to the boat ramp is one of my most favorite places to watch the relay of the daylight sun passing into the Southern Hemisphere. Just as dusk settles in wildlife really begin to peek out from the woods. If you have kiddos and can manage to work in a drive through Arcadia at dusk, they'd love to see all the deer (definitely deer), and maybe turkeys, cranes, eagles, scissor-tailed flycatchers, and hawks that come around when most of the all-day lake goers have left for the day. Treat yourself to a sunset here and learn why it's worth every bit of $80 to get to come here as often as you want. October 2020

I am so glad that Lake Arcadia exists! It serves as a perfect nature getaway for the weekend and…read moreit's practically in OKC's backyard. This particular part of the lake Arcadia park system is to the south west of the lake. Today, my infant son and I enjoyed the relatively new spring creek trail. This trail was so nice! It is a multi-use completely paved trail. It is wide enough for walkers to have their own designated lane as well as cyclists their own. Out and back this trail is a good easy 5 miles. It is amongst the trees with glimpses of the creek every. Ow and then. If you want to be a bit more adventurous, get off the beaten path. Yes, go explore those unpaved wild looking hiking trails that branch off from the path most taken. Although this trail is all I enjoyed today, there are many nice shaded picnic tables and grills that could make a great location for a get together. There is also a disc golf course here, although I'm not sure how often it is used. There were several people fishing in this area too. There are lots of ways this park can help you enjoy nature. What are you waiting for? Go check it out!
