    Fabulous afternoon boat trip, one of the best we have been on. Damian and Tegan were really knowledgeable and made sure that everyone was able to get a good photo opportunity. They wanted everyone to have a great time, they were entertaining in a lovely way, I would definitely recommend this trip as not to be missed.

  • A must-do for all visitors to The Prom

    I have been a regular visitor to The Prom for over 30 years. This 2.5-hour trip added a new perspective to my love of The Prom. Going out to the islands, including Skull Rock, and viewing South Point from the water was amazing. The conditions were perfect, so we even went to see the lighthouse. Overall, this trip far exceeded my expectations. It is a must-do for visitors who are unable to do the magnificent southern walks, and should also be done by those who have seen most of The Prom from the land. Absolutely fantastic. Welcoming and wonderful crew.

  • Wilson’s Promontory Magic

    Despite my trepidation due to lifelong motion seasickness issues, this cruise was worth every cent ! Ideal weather conditions prevailed and the ginger tablets provided ensured I was able to enjoy every minute. Not only was it fun but very educational. A very well organised activity that gave a very unique perspective of Wilson’s Promontory and added so much to our enjoyment and knowledge of this stunning part of Australia.

    Loved the boat tour along the shore of Wilson’s Promontory and around various rock formations and seal hang outs in the area. The crew was very knowledgeable and gave us a good idea of the history of the nature preserve and the challenges faced with climate change. It gave us a good understanding of the expanse of the preserve and the various rock formations. Also we had a good time and got some wonderful photographs to share back home.

    Saw eagles flocks of terns flying low next to the boat and tuna fish jumping alongside the boat heaps of seals with many baby pups and a wonderful coastline.

  • Absolutely Fantastic Experience

    We headed out with Deb and Maddy yesterday and had the best experience. The boat is incredible. It’s something I didn’t even think about when booking but it’s an amphibious boat?! It sits up on the beach on wheels and drives itself into the ocean and then drives right on back out at the end - no trailer or boat ramp required. Really cool. Maddy was a great skipper. She manoeuvred the boat expertly so ensure both sides saw everything really well. Both Maddy and Deb were so passionate about the National Park and its animals and their enthusiasm was infectious. They both are extremely knowledgeable and respectful of the park and animals. We had an incredible day in terms of weather. Better than we could have ever expected. We saw Sea Eagles, soooo many seals, a school of fish jumping from the water and much more in terms of scenery. This is a really well run trip. It’s not oversold, the boat is comfortable, it’s well organised and the right amount of time to be engaging all the way through. Absolutely worth booking.

    Such a awesome experience! From the moment I booked, Janice was very friendly and helpful. Thanks to local guides Deb and Joel who have so much care and love for the Prom as it pours out of them with their enthusiasm and passion and wealth of information freely shared. An amazing Wilderness cruise was had and both were very attentive to guests helping make the most out of the cruise starting from Joel asking guests would you like an adventure or a cruise today and with enthusiasm the group said adventure. Joel was delighted he made fun happen manoeuvring the boat going faster as guest request. We saw Cape Barren geese only found in Australia, and is one of the rarest geese in the world. Seal colony on Kanowna Island was awesome a lot of fun activity and playfulness going on. White Bellied Sea Eagle pair circling, Australia's second largest raptor. I highly recommend going on a Wilderness Cruise with Wanderer Adventures Wilsons Promontory Cruises.

    I was very impressed with the trip here. Before boarding the boat, the team prepared seasickness medicine and provided jackets to protect us from the wind and sea spray. The guide was friendly and gave great recommendations for places to visit. I didn’t get a chance to see the whales. It was a pity they didn’t come out to show themselves, but the seals were very cute.
