1.00Very scary and very reckless driving, splashing water everywhere. Not concerned if anyone were alright in the cruise. It was not a cruis, just a unsafe boat with more than 20 people. It was risk to my life. It was misleading and bor providing enough information about the journey

5.00Fantastic, well organized tour of the Wilson's Promontory where we saw a humpback whale, a lively seal colony, sea eagle's nests, and Skull Island. With ginger tabs ready to mitigate sea sickness and red water proof jackets to keep off the spray, it is a highly recommended tour
Wilson’s Prom from the Sea

5.00An absolutely wonderful activity. To see the beautiful Wilson’s Prom from the sea is such a privilege. All the staff were fantastic. Our skipper told us so much about the land, past and present, the sea and the islands, the animals and vegetation. We had a bit of a swell also, which made for an exciting ride. An absolute “to do” trip.
An absolute must

5.00On a result trip to Wilson's Promontory, we went on the Wanderer Wilderness Tour around Wilson's Promontory. Weather was a little bit rough, and everybody was warned before we left. Fantastic trip with some amazing scenery. Went along the coast down to the light house with a couple of stops and commentary at each stop Went out to the islands to see the seal colony's and were able to take many photos close up. Then, we went to skull Rock, which is enormous and fantastic Staff were fantastic and were always checking on passengers Would highly reccomend
Even good on a rough day

5.00A fantastic adventure from start to finish and was well looked after. Our guides were Damien and Ash and they were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. A great view of the Promontory from the sea and the Skull Rock. A beautiful National Park with lots to do and explore but don't miss the cruise if you want to see the bird life, sea life, chance to sea dolphins and whales (at migration months) and the nature at its finest form the water.
