Affiliate disclosure
Barton Springs Pool Tickets is a participant in the GetYourGuide affiliate program. When you book a tour through a link or widget on this site, GetYourGuide pays me a small percentage of the tour price. You pay exactly what you’d pay booking directly.
What is and isn’t affiliated
The six tours — from the ~$28 kayak rental to the ~$70 e-bike tour — are booked through GetYourGuide and those links are affiliate links. Barton Springs Pool entry is not: it’s $2–$9 paid to the City of Austin at the gate, sold by the City itself, so there is no affiliate link for it. The same goes for parking, the free side, and everything else on the prices page.
How it affects the recommendations
Each review is written the same way whichever tour it covers, and the reviews say so where it counts: the paddleboard page tells you it’s a rental, the kayak page tells you the dock walk-up rate can be cheaper, and the cruise page tells you about the mandatory 18% gratuity.
