5.00We went on the Lady Launceston and really enjoyed the Captain's talk on the Tamar River and the environs. We also navigated into the Cataract Gorge and it was a beautiful site to see. All in all a very pleasant outing.
Short but informative

4.00Short but sweet tour……a comfortable boat, with an ability to keep warm with covered windows, but also available seating outside (good for colder weather). A few wrecks along side the Tamar River shoreline as well as spectacular view up close of Cataract Gorge. Good value for money but is only a short trip
Amazing relaxing boat ride

5.00The tour guide (I'm sorry I've forgotten your name!) was so friendly and knowledgeable about the Tamar 'Estuary'. It was such a lovely way to spend the afternoon. This tour was so well worth it.
