Wir hatten viel Spass an der einstundigen Fahrt, die uns erst flussabwarts fuhrte, wo weitere Passagiere -- eine Wandergruppe -- an einer unbefestigten Uferstelle aufgenommen wurden. Anschliessend ging es flussaufwarts, wahrenddessen die Flussreisenden den entweder bei der Anlegestelle erworbenen bzw. -- im Falle der Wandergruppe -- an Bord bereitstehenden Speisen und Getranken zusprachen und den Blick uber die voruberziehende Landschaft schweifen liessen. Alles in allem eine gut organisierte und gut besuchte Attraktion im Umkreis von Robertson. - Rebekka&Mario

Altyd n hoogtepunt op ons toere - Nostalgie
This wasn't my first time taking the boat trip, but I booked it for a group of friends who had never experienced it before. They were all very impressed with the deli and wine selection, and everyone agreed that the duration of the trip was just right. By the end, they all said it's definitely something they would do again. - Valmé
