5.00This was a very relaxing, lovely experience. It was a beautiful sunny day. The attendents were very helpful as my spouse needed assistance getting on and off the swan boat. There was no line and we were happily escorted to our boat.

5.00I always like taking my friends from out of town to swan boating in Echo Park. This time we were the first and only customers. Echo Park is particularly beautiful in the morning after rain with people juggling and walking their dogs. We were looking for the turkey boat but it's no longer available.
Great Veterans Day in Echo Park

5.00Great way to kill an hour with a kid, and get a workout at the same time. They also have a small place for food and drinks when you're done.
Super

5.00I recommend booking as it is quite busy and if you are very late they may not have a chance but if I recommend it, it is very beautiful
Fun!!!!!!!!!!

3.00We went during the night and the line for check in was ridiculously long and unorganized. We bought tickets ahead of time and yet waited 45 min to check in. The swan boat itself were rocky and honestly didn't enjoy any of it. The place was overcrowded and no really good food options around there either. I would not do this again.
Very Romantic and...

4.00This is a really fun experience, it's just not run as well as it could be. Despite making a reservation, I still had to wait in a 15-minute line with all the people who did not make a reservation. Then the light timer on our boat turned off after 40 minutes, instead of 60 minutes. They offered to let us go back out, but by the time we had paddled in, it was already getting late. Also, not their fault, but it did take us 30 minutes to find parking. Then we had to walk half a mile because we parked on the exact wrong side of the lake. Okay, actually they could put up a flag or something, so you can see from the road where the dock is to get on the swans so you park on the right side of the lake.
