About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- nash202420240 contributionsBest part of our Nashville tripIt was an amazing time. The lake was beautiful, and the experience was smooth. Our group had an incredible time, thanks to our top-notch boat driver/host who ensured we had an amazing experience without any hiccups. I would highly recommend High Tides Rides - it was the best part of our summer trip to Nashville. Just so you know, the shuttle ride from and to our hotel was a bonus. Please note that if you are unable to grab any drinks or snacks, they have an on-site store where you can grab some snacks and merchandise (hats, glasses, cups and ect).Written September 5, 2024
- Ebanksje0 contributionsGreat timeWe had the best time cruising around with High tide rides! Our captain Noah was the absolute best and made it so fun for us while making us super comfortable. The boat was a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the city but still a great time. The view was beautiful. Cannot recommend Noah and this experience enough for bachelorette parties like us or anyone looking for a fun time!!Written September 4, 2022

- NicolePr00 contributionsBest idea for a bachloretteWe were in town for a bachlorette party and heading into the weekend we knew it was going to be really hot! High Tide Rides was a great off the beaten path excursion and Captian Brandon was awesome! We got to cool off, get some great pictures, and have fun on the lake. The boat was well equipped, Captain Brandon made sure we always had refills at the ready, and Blake got us to and from our airbnb smoothly. 10/10 would recommend!Written August 20, 2022

- Holly M0 contributionsBest for Bachelorette!We had such a great time this past weekend out on the water with Cody and crew for my friend's bachelorette weekend. The trip to a private island with games and activities was a nice touch, and he was super flexible in catering the itinerary to what we wanted to spend time on. The transportation there and back from the pickup location we wanted was also super convenient. Would definitely do this again with a group of friends - it was a lot of fun!Written July 19, 2022

The best Nashville experience ever! We went for my sisters bachelorette party with 9 of us including our other 15 year old sister and it was a blast! Captain Jake Arch was absolutely amazing from the moment we got there to the moment we left. He made suggestions and gave us options on what we could do and trusting his guidance it was amazing! I highly recommend tubbing! The water was warm, clean and super refreshing. If you can extend your time to go over 3 hours I highly recommend it. Time flies when your having fun.
Peace and love to High Tide Rides from your Jersey Crew!

We had a party of ten plus the captain. There was music, a lily pad float, games on the "island", and tubing. Our ages ranged from 24-63 and everyone had a great time. Would suggest taking snacks as well as your drinks - being on the water will make you hungry!

I cannot say enough good things about high tide rides! From Matt driving the shuttle, the workers inside the gift shop, and our captain Tyler we could not have hand picked a better group of people! We tubed, floated on the lily pad, and hung at the beach. This was the highlight of our entire weekend. Tyler made the experience so fun and we listened to his music the whole 3 hours!!!

The lake is gorgeous, the boat is nice, and the water is warm (summertime). We had a good time, but it would have been better if the captain wasn’t so cocky.
We had Jake as our captain. I lost count of how many times he told us how he became the #1 captain in only a couple months. He was kind of weird and only wanted to talk about how great he was as a captain…except for the multiple times he wanted to talk sh!t about one of the other captains.
When we are paying customers we don’t want to hear about the drama with the other employees. And don’t talk about being the best…just be the best. I don’t have anything to compare him to, but I hope he’s not the best this business has to offer…
Also, he hung out with us the whole time in the water. Some might like that, but I would have preferred if he hadn’t inserted himself into our group so much because he’s not that fun.
I would recommend this business as long as I could go with a different captain.

We are so happy you got to experience the lake in our wonderful Tennessee summertime, but are sincerely sorry that that was your experience with your captain. We try to ensure that the captains are only as involved as the group insists that they be...we hope to have you guys again so we can provide you the perfect cruise. Thank you!

We had a total of 8 people on the boat, 2 families of 4with teenagers. The driver was 20 minutes late picking us up. His driving was scary. He was speeding and didn't slow down for turns or railroad tracks or anything. I thought he was driving like that because we were late. We get there and the pontoon boat was nice and our captain was friendly. We told him about the drive there. We rode in the boat for literally, 5 minutes and he put down the anchor, we were right next to the marina. He said that we could not go tubing because the boat that could pull the tube was in use by another party. I wanted to go to a beach and he said that we couldn't because it would be "too busy and there wouldn't be a spot." Our cruise started at 4:30 and there weren't many boats out. They should have told us about these issues ahead of time. We made the most of it and did have some fun but to charge $ 584.00 to sit at a marina is ridiculous. The icing on the cake was that on the ride home our driver stopped for gas and then got lost. He didn't have his phone so I had to use GPS and give him directions. At times he would turn his whole head to look at us while he was driving. The ride home was worse than the ride there. I emailed my issues to the company the next day. I think it is wrong to write a bad review without giving them a chance to explain or make it better. He apologized for the car ride and wouldn't address any of my other concerns.

We're so sorry to hear this! We hate that your experience did not live up to your nor our expectations. I can honestly say I haven't heard of any of this happening before, so I'm so sorry about that, and with you having spoken to one of the owners, I can assure you it has been looked into to avoid this occurrence in the future. Thank you for letting us know.

This was a blast! We had a group of 11 and would book with this company again in a heart beat. After drop off we were already trying to plan a weekend we were all available to book again.
Between the shuttle service and having our own captain it made the day completely stress-free. No one needed to be a designated driver from the very start. I was too busy running the beer pong table on the boat to enjoy the water pad on the lake but my friends loved it. Very professional and the captain was a pleasure to have spending the day with us.
I highly recommend this company for a fun, worry free day on the water!

Our crew was for a bachelorette party! We had a blast! Our driver was a great time and picked us up and dropped us off promptly. He helped carry our drinks and other things that we had to get onto the boat. He let us play music in the van and was a great time. Our boat driver was great and also let us play whatever music we wanted to listen to! Besides just sitting on the boat, we went tubing, laid out on the water on a floaty, and even stopped at a little cove where you could get out and enjoy yourselves. We all had a great time and I would highly recommend this to any Bach parties!

Driver Drew was bomb. Isaiah was equally bomb! We had a group of 11 and had a blast. Hot day out on the water. Boat provided water beer pond for us. Could not have asked for a better day!
Isiah was 5/5, he was respectful of us and was also fun but not too pushy.
