Traveler reviews
Do it!!
What a magnificent experience. If you are in Strahan make sure you do this trip. We traveled in the Premier upper deck and it was fantastic. The food was fab. The scenery was second to none! Big shout out to our hostess Kelly. She was superb 👏 Thanks to all the crew for a wonderful day out on your beautiful harbour and river.

The staff were amazing, we had such a great day. the tour guide was full of knowledge with Sarah Island and we highly recommend this cruise as a must do 👍
A must do experience well worth the effort.
What a great day out. The estuary and river are beautiful pristine areas and the tour was wonderful. The guide of Sarah Island was very well presented by David with in depth commentary of the hardship at the time. The stories made even more entertaining with the nightly presentation of "The Ship that never was", again presented by David et al. A wonderful story of escape with audience participation. A must do experience of fun and fascination
The boat trip, food and...
The boat trip, food and service were all excellent. I have done the trip multiple times and found the presentation of information on Sarah Island disappointing in comparison with previous presentations.
