Wilderness at its best. Great cruise and amazing service.
Great experience. The cruise was very well managed. Had a lovely crew. The buffet was good with salads for vegetarians. On board facilities were great. Had coffee, snacks etc. Must do experience. Really unique. The Sarah island tour was fun and the guide was amazing and funny. Had a great time
Incredible, pristine views like travelling back in time! Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Would highly recommend.
What an amazing cruise! The day was beautiful and the water so glassy, the views were just to die for. Loved learning about the history and characters of the port. Gordon River was magnificent, truly unforgettable and I really enjoyed there tour of Sarah Island too - a lesson in what humanity and respect could achieve (to say more would contain spoilers). Unmissable Tasmanian wilderness experience!

Great Day Out!! Definitely recommend this tour whilst in Strahan!
Very enjoyable day, boat crew really friendly and well informed! Lunch was amazing and Sarah Island tour was really well done, Dave was amazing! Didn’t see any wildlife along the way which was surprising. The water is the most amazing colours in areas.
