    A beautiful day for the cruise around Lake Wakatipu. Troy and Bree were great! Troy navigated us around with his knowledge of the surrounding sites and feature's, ensuring we all had chilled and relaxing experience. Bree was hospitable taking our orders and was very friendly. There were 4 of us in total and we all enjoyed the cruise and would recommend it to anyone, whether you’re a visitor or a local.
