Night Time Swan Boats - Incredible - Great fun!! We went at night and took turns paddling, stopping sometimes to just drift around. the views were spectacular and the team there were friendly and helpful. Great Taco Truck around the corner also, in the Vons carpark, check it out.

Turtle!! - We saw a turtle!! It was incredible, truly. I'll tell you what, never in my wildest dreams would I think we'd see a turtle in Silver lake. But, you know what, we did. In the flesh, or should I say shell. It was right there! We could almost touch it! It was amazing. Will we be going back? Let's just say... SHELL YES.

Glad we did this! - I can’t believe we’ve never done this before! It was a fun, easy afternoon activity. We will definitely do this again. And the bonus was the Theo’s Tacos down the street afterwards.

Swan Boats - Super relaxing, depending on the weather, but there’s so much life in the area, baby ducks, geese, and much more. Pedaling and steering is required to control the boat which is super fun! Went for my anniversary such a great vibe.

Fun, Relaxing, Worth the Price - Decided on a Sunday morning swan boat ride (10:15am). Weather was very nice and not a lot of people on the water at that time which made for a relaxing one hour ride. Boats are easy to pedal and steers. Some nice wildlife to see along the water (turtles, ducks, geese, etc). Had music playing and at one point stopped pedaling and just let the boat drift with the current. Looking to go back in the summer to do an evening ride to enjoy the lights.

Beautiful birds, turtles and fun in the sun. - Very fun little outing on a sunny day. Saw beautiful birds and the echo park lake turtles. Went out with my elderly mother and 6 year old. Had a blast, but look out for the big fountain! We got too close and got pretty wet. Luckily it was sunny.

Unprofessional - Tour shut down with no prior warning. Terrible professionalism. No one contacted us about the tour being cancelled.

No communication - Had reservations and they closed the park before I got there and didn't notify me that they closed. They need better communication!
