Get ready to see Tempe Town Lake in a whole new way: Arizona Party Bike founder Robert Mayer is bringing the Valley’s first “cycle boat” experience to the iconic urban lake with Tempe Boat Cruisin’. This concept blends a party bike and a boat, offering guests a chance to pedal together to power the boat’s paddle wheel or relax as the quiet electric system takes over. Each vessel accommodates up to 26 passengers, with 12 pedal stations for those who want to join in on the action.
“We’ve had tremendous success bringing hundreds of thousands of people together through Arizona Party Bike, and activating Tempe Town Lake with Tempe Boat Cruisin’ is the next step for our brand,” Mayer said. “Tempe Town Lake is one of the most iconic destinations in the Valley, and we’re excited to introduce a completely unique and fun way to experience it, found only in Tempe.”
Fully captained and crewed, Tempe Boat Cruisin’ is designed to be interactive, social, and safe, offering a new way to celebrate, relax, or explore the lake.
“Tempe Town Lake is an iconic destination, where residents and visitors gather to work, recreate and celebrate special occasions,” Mayor Corey Woods said. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Tempe Boat Cruisin’ to the mix, and their innovative approach will bring a fresh and exciting new offering.”
Guests can book public or private cruises for any occasion, from ASU tailgates and corporate team-building events to sunset outings and casual nights with friends. Cruises feature music, views, lake vibes, and responsibly served drinks from the on-site store, all in a professionally crewed environment.
Arizona Party Bike has long been a staple of high-energy group recreation in the Phoenix metro area, and Tempe Boat Cruisin’ expands that experience onto the water, keeping safety, service, and unforgettable memories at the forefront. The first cruises are expected to launch in late January, with early booking access and promotional offers available online. For more, visit tempeboatcruisin.com.
