It is an informative and relaxed way to spend 2.5 hours! A comfortable boat - attentive and knowledgeable staff and simply a great time on the river.

Callum and Lucas were an excellent guide and host. We learnt so much about the history of Launceston. We even got to see the rare sight of a young male sea eagle with an eele in his talons. I would highly recommend the experience

Nice supply of morning tea including muffins, fruit cake biscuits and tea/coffee. The only bad thing was the boat had mechanical troubles and put a dampener on the tour. Got full refund and decided to walk to Cataract Gorge instead. The tour was ok. Got cut short due to technological issues.
