5.00Phenomenal experience; informative but not overwhelming, exciting way to see the beautiful landscapes, and we were lucky to see lots of wildlife too (dolphins and seals). Lily and Josh were fabulous boat crew from 24/4/26. In all the whole team was very accommodating for my 92yo grandfather; a young male (originally from VIC) even helped drive him down to the boats early. Then Lily, Josh from our boat and ?Sean from the other boat were so lovely, and even kind enough to spend time chatting to my Grandfather about boats, fishing and motorbikes. We really appreciate it!

5.00Fantastic experience, worth every penny!! The boat and crew were incredible and the stunning views and wildlife were perfect. We were lucky enough to be joined by a pod of dolphins playing beside the boat and showing off just for us.
