Traveler reviews
Thanks for a great experience!
Easy to book. What they described was what we got and more! Staff were great, friendly and informative and took a genuine interest in who they had aboard.
Amazing experience
We had a wonderful experience. Our guide was Jordan and Bells. They were very knowledgeable and telling us the history of the stops we had. Our bonus was we got to watch the whales..Our 4 year old daughter was super happy. Definitely recommended.
Spectacular
Kate was amazing. She has a lot of knowledge and is very pleasant
Beautiful scenery and we saw seals!
Fantastic tour with our friendly and knowledgeable tour guide Hugh. Breathtaking scenery with the added bonus of seeing two seals sunbathing on the rocks!
Iron Pot Lighthouse
It was a great cruise. Started with being shown from the boat, Battery Point. Casino, some wealthy homes. The school Queen Mary used to go to. Some caves, rock formations and how some disintegrate over time, which includes the caves losing rock over time. Went as far as seeing Bruny Island from a distance. Saw some seals and finally the lighthouse. The oldest in Australia. It wasn’t tall as some but impressive. The tour lasted 2.5 hours. With doing.
