It was ok. Certainly the Captain told us lots of facts. It could be improved by the Captain explaining the Aboriginal influence and presence and about any rare species living in the Gorge. And the check on staff could smile more.

Walked it and saw more than on the boat trip, guides were good. If you walk it you get further up the gorge and see the basin which is the most dramatic part of the gorge.
