Relaxing cruise and value for money

We have done this trip before but still a worthwhile making the trip again. Good commentary and enjoyed the lamingtons for morning tea, a real Aussie treat.

The Gold Coast sight seeing cruise was very enjoyable.

I took my family on the Gold Coast sight seeing cruise and we all really enjoyed it. Sitting on the top open level gave us 360 degree views. The staff were all lovely and lots of information was given along the way. It was relaxing and a lovely way to learn more about the Gold Coast region. I would highly recommend this company and this cruise.
