    On February 13th, I came here with my son for a scouting experience. The scouts came here for a science-related scouting program. While here, the scouts learned about fluid dynamics as well as were able to partake in flights. Although my daughter is not a boy scout but is a girl scout (girl power), she was also able to do the flights as well. The overall instruction and experience was both educational and enjoyable. The employees who worked here were personable and friendly.

    The image shows an individual in a skydiving suit and helmet performing indoor skydiving inside a glass tunnel. The person appears to be in free-fall, with their body positioned horizontally and arms extended. The tunnel is illuminated with vertical purple lights, and a group of people can be seen observing through the glass at the bottom. The facility's logo, 'iFLY,' is visible on the ceiling of the tunnel.

    Great experience from check in to the end. All the instructors were really nice and friendly. They were all encouraging. We had the lead instructor and he was funny! He would do funny things in there while the kids were flying. They had it down to a science getting the groups in and ready and staged and moved over. Didn't matter the age of the flyer they were awesome. My son loved it!

    This was an amazing experience. And my flight guide was incredible. Seeing everything you can do in there is nice. If its your first time I suggest getting the high fly. Its fun and time goes by quick when you are in there. I will definitely be going again. Make me want to sky dive for real too

    Not at all what I thought it would be. This was overall a 6 star experience and this rating is truly the staff. The staff! How rare is it that you could give a 5 star rating on the staff alone and not just one employee but all 6 that you came in contact with? I was surprised how clean it was, I was surprised at how smooth the process was with 40 people especially with with most kids ages 5-10. Know that your actual fly time is super short but to me it felt longer in the tunnel than watching others. The instructors are so fun and crowd entertainment for sure. I was sitting there wondering how much these guys make because they put 110% into each flight, kid after kid, adult after adult they were all in. Arriving I was pumped, watching the video and listening to everything I was starting to get really scared, but it was thrilling, it was fun and nothing scary or claustrophobic about it. I want a membership, I want to fly everyday and learn to be an air gymnast, is what they make it look like.

    Great experience from start to finish! Check in was easy and every person we spoke to was very friendly and accommodating. The actual "fly" experience was so much fun! Even though it's only a couple of minutes every second was worth it. They also take photos and videos for you so you can be present in the moment. It really allows you to enjoy the experience for yourself and the ones you went with.

    My fiancé and I took our 10 year old to iFly for his birthday. It was a very unique experience and he really enjoyed it. There were only two things that disappointed me. 1- We got our kid a voucher from Sams Club to use at iFly which gave us great savings on the regular rates. It doesn't, however, include what they call a "high fly". It only includes a flight with the coach standing in the wind tunnel. (Regular rates also do not include this) A high fly on the other hand (an additional $20 for 1!!!) allows the flyer to truly "fly" with the instructor also in a flight position. 2. Each flight is 1 minute!! I get that they are trying to maximize the number of flights, but c'mon. I do have to say the staff was fantastic. The coach my son had got not only taught them control and technique but got all the kids pumped up and excited about the experience. Overall, fun experience but quite a bit pricey. Bonus - if you go to Amy's Ice Cream next door after your flight you will receive a free topping!

    This is my second time coming here but I didn't leave a review the first time. I should have! The first time we had Austin and he was incredible. I had booked a flight for my mom who is TERRIFIED of heights and he worked wonders. She loved it. And his socks are pretty incredible as well so that alone deserves 5 stars. This time I took my aunt, uncle and cousin. I have no clue who the instructor was BUT I will include a picture. He was great as well. Super smiley and friendly. Handled my aunt, who was even more terrified than my mom originally was, fantastically. My cousin even booked more flights and sounded excited to maybe go actually skydiving with him one day. Appropriate for kids and adults of all ages and basically any fitness level! A little pricey but overall well worth the experience. Definitely recommend!

    iFLY is an outstanding place with excellent professional and instructors! The whole family loved it and we will be returning with friends and family!! The kids loved it and we were happy to get them out of the house to try new things and expand their horizons!!

    Ooohhh this has been on my bucket list for years and was excited to do w/ my bestie! We purchased on-line so we could reserve date/time during the week (to avoid crowds during the weekend) and fill out waiver to reduce check in time. Check-in was pretty easy (be prepared cuz the do weigh you in order to stay in the weight limits) and we ended up increasing our total number of flights from 2 to 4 and added video/pictures. Highly recommend buying more flights cuz the time goes by quickly and it may take you a few flights to get comfortable w/ everything before he allows you to fly higher. Next step is to watch a quick training video, go over hand signals, practice body positioning, put on flight suit, and let's fly! Austin was our instructor and he was great (definitely request him)...patient, felt safe, communicated clearly. The location was very clean, mask are required when not flying, hand sanitizer available, all gear is washed/cleaned onsite (I watched) so definitely a plus. I'm excited to go again as this will prepare me to eventually sky dive! PS...we got some great video but can't download on Yelp unfortunately.

    Wow! We had the absolute best experience today at IFLY! Our group of 7/8 year olds were a little nervous but after having the most AWESOME instructor, we had the best time ever!!!! From start to finish, we truly had a blast! I highly recommend this experience for all ages! My daughter, 4 years old was so excited to fly because of our outstanding instructor..... I really want to thank him, Mr. W! You are one of a kind with the biggest heart and warmest soul! Your passion for being a good guide, your excitement to fly, your knowledge, for all ages, was truly special today! Thank you for all you did! You made memories for our crew that we will cherish for a life time! Thank you so much!!!!

The Austin English Tea Company brings all of the aesthetics, ambiance, and flavors you'd expect in a proper British tea room. Spent a lovely Sunday Funday morning with friends celebrating Galentine's Day (albeit a day later) with fresh and yummy tea sandwiches, scones, clotted cream, mini, quiche, cream puffs, macarons, Prosecco, and more. We had four pots of tea: Classic English Breakfast, Earl Gray, Peach White, and Coconut Oolong. It goes without saying that the English Brekkie and Earl Gray were perfectly brewed and delicious. The Peach White and Coconut Oolong were also perfectly brewed. The Peach White was fragrant and flavorful. Same for the Coconut Oolong though it was more fragrant with a less robust flavor. Still delicious. The tea sandwiches were served on perfectly fresh and soft white bread. Cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches are always my favorite, without question. The Strawberry Devonshire Scone was to die for! I really enjoyed the heart-shaped Rosemary biscuit that had a hint of parmesean flavor as well. The apricot Stilton cheese was flavorful and exactly how you want a Stilton to taste. Service was outstanding. The decor was brilliant, absolute perfection. The entire experience was reminiscent of tea rooms I've visited in England and Ireland. Looking forward to another visit soon! Note: the tea room is located inside Michelle's Patisserie in a shopping plaza---once you enter the tea room you're totally transported to another time and place of elegance, tea, & sweets.

Yana is very responsive over text and her prices are cheaper than a non-helium balloon arch or wall. I gave her my budget of ~$100 and she texted me pictures of at least three to four different options. She even threw in two extra balloons free of charge. If you were to order a balloon arch or wall with any non-helium vendor, you're looking at ~$300 for a decent size. Helium balloons are a nice way of decorating, without having all the latex powder and dust from using a non helium balloon pump inside your house. Her delivery charge of $25 is reasonable. And her weights are $1 each which is also very reasonable. Balloon Boutique on Yelp projects quoted me $5 for each weight. I will definitely order from her again next month for my son's birthday party. Her Instagram said she also has an all inclusive team of party planning including catering, venue, music and photography. I'm happy to have found a better alternative, now that Party City has gone out of business!

I have worked in hospitality and event planning industry in Austin for many years, and finding a good caterer has always proven extremely difficult. Leading up to the event, Brandi was extremely communicative and flexible with my needs. There was a long period of time where things kept getting delayed on my end due to my organization's policies, but Brandi remained so patient, kind, respectful and accommodating throughout the whole process. On the day of the event, her and her team arrived on time and set up a stunning buffet complete with layered linens and touches of greenery. For the price I paid I was expecting just a standard black tablecloth and chafers on a table, so I was very impressed with the presentation. It made it very clear to me that this is a business that takes pride in their work. On top of this already great experience, the food was fresh and delicious. I am not exaggerating when I say every single thing was seasoned to perfection! I went around to each table and asked everyone how they liked everything, and they all commented on how flavorful the food was. Even our staff with dietary restrictions that received alternative proteins were impressed. I had only paid for the basic-level buffet service, so I was't expecting them to do anything beyond serving the food- but I was yet again pleasantly surprised when I looked up and saw Brandi and her team walking around to each table bussing plates. This was not expected of them at all and I was so amazed with the level of service throughout the entire event. I will absolutely be hiring them for more events in the future, and I recommend you do too!

    Overall: We invested a lot of our time searching for Hana, and working with her to carry out our…read moresmall wedding. While we do appreciate her time and all the work she did, we cannot recommend Hana as a wedding coordinator because of her unprofessionalism. Please read below for why. For more questions, please reach out to us: noobebe0710@gmail.com. We hired Hana as our Day-of Coordinator for our wedding with 40 guests on October 5, 2024. We only hired her for Day-of Coordination and not Full Coordination since we were on a budget, and I, the bride, took on most of the planning with the help of my groom. We chose her over fourteen other candidates we thoroughly interviewed, where we spent about an hour for each interview. At the time of interviewing and hiring Hana for the job, she was very enthusiastic and thorough in explaining her role and the additional things she could assist with. Here are her assigned roles from our contract: I reviewed how each role went during the wedding: P for positive on what she did well. Our constructive feedback is below for what could've been done differently. P: She was fun to work with and very easy to reach before the wedding, even during times when she was sick. I was living out of town and the groom was living in Austin while planning, and most of our communication was virtual. She always tried her best to execute the vision we had for our wedding. Timeline management: Ensure the wedding stays on schedule P: On our wedding day, she was punctual and ensured she was the first person at the venue, making sure everything was organized. Rehearsal: Attend and coordinate the wedding rehearsal with the officiant to make sure everyone knows what to do when P: During our Rehearsal Lunch on October 4, 2024, she helped us coordinate our wedding entourage along with the DJ, which was very important to us since we wanted our plans to be executed smoothly. Venue walkthrough: Oversee the final walk-through of the venue P: She attended the venue walkthrough on September 19, 2024 and met with our photographer. Decorations: Ensure all decorative items are in place P: She did well when directing the setup for the wedding ceremony. She also assisted other vendors with logistics, whether it involved decorating or setting up for the reception. Vendors: Manage vendors when they arrive and confirm their setup locations and arrival times Ceremony: Line up everyone for the ceremony and cue the officiant and musicians for key moments P: She was able to tell us our officiant was late and she tried her best to contact him. He arrived on time. Reception: Coordinate the couple's entrance into the reception Cleanup: Oversee the breakdown and cleanup of the venue P: She made sure the venue was clean as the wedding concluded. She helped direct what happened with the wedding decorations during the cleanup afterward. Our decorations went to different cars. Even if some of our family members didn't give her the keys, she carried decorations to the cars. She tried her best to make sure the decorations went to the correct car. Communication: Keep everyone involved informed so the day runs smoothly Areas for improvement: For example, she could have contacted our other vendors such as our wedding cake vendor and DJ during the wedding planning process to ensure better synchronization on the wedding day. We understand that we only hired her for Day-of Coordination and not the full service, but we hired her believing that she would still assist with "some part" of the planning. It was very important to us that she proactively contacted our vendors so we wouldn't have to worry about the logistics. We also wish she had given clearer instructions to the vendors about our specific requests and expectations. Although my husband and I also discussed our expectations with her, it should've been written into the contract. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like she made much effort to contact them in advance. While we provided the vendor's contacts the day we hired her--almost two months before the wedding--there was no evidence that she reached out to them in a timely or consistent manner. This lack of communication became evident when our DJ made a few mistakes during the latter part of the wedding ceremony and parts of the reception. While we know this isn't entirely Hana's fault, we strongly believe that better coordination with the DJ could have prevented these mishaps.We also should've advocated having a meeting with Hana and DJ a week before the wedding to go over the final timeline since DJ Abner had a big role in the timeline. After the wedding, we tried reaching out to Hana for clarifications and feedback. We called, texted, and emailed her multiple times to set up a simple discussion, but she didn't respond promptly--or at all--for several weeks. When she eventually did respond, her email was not apologetic, nor did she acknowledge any responsibility for the mistakes or mishaps.
