Incredibly organized and efficient service! We had the boat all to ourselves, and our guide was both professional and kind. Our 3- and 4-year-olds absolutely loved it---the kids' activity packs were a huge hit! Highly recommend this experience. We'll definitely be back again! - Morgan

Crappy weather but was still a lovely cruise. The skipper was very informative and very nice. Nice and slow out on the waters to the Heads. - Landi
It was a great cruise, we really enjoyed the views and hearing the stories from our guide/skipper. - Midgley
The boat itself was clean,comfortable and, and balanced in the water. The tour guide was very insightful and was able to respond to all our questions. He is a cautious driver and gave so much information about the lagoon,the heads and was able to educate us on the different species of fish Knysna have. My family and I are definitely go back. - Tshenolo
