Great tour. We got caught in a freak storm on the top deck and had to retreat to the lower deck.
The staff were great and did their best to overcome the situation.
Drinks and quality of meals were excellent.
Would recommend to anyone.

Good value for the two hours with an excellent buffet to choose from.
Complimentary champagne given to us because of it being our 25th anniversary.
Very obliging staff were most helpful.

It is something everyone should do when visiting Darwin.
The food was amazing. Such a great variety.
Susan_H, Oct 2025
The cost was a bit high for food that was okay and having to pay for drinks on top. The boat itself was beautiful as were the staff, on the whole a most enjoyable evening.

Staff were good and attentive during the cruise.
Helena_W, Sep 2025
Great service, great food, great views. When booking, it would be good to have the option of sitting inside or outside. We were allocated an inside table but were relieved that an outside table was available.

Trip was okay but no background music which would have been nice. We were just a booking for 3 and found it very noisy
Trish_P, Aug 2025
Some staff were really great, others couldn't even crack a smile. Customer service really makes the experience memorable, sometimes for the wrong reason
shane_s, Aug 2025
Food pretty bland and average, no flavour. It is self service for dinner and if your section is last you get what is left over.
Duane_M, Aug 2025
Staff were great. Cruise was nice. Dinner was horrible. Menu said things like Caesar salads was dairy free, which it was not. Has to buy dinner again after the cruise.
Robert_A, Aug 2025

Jenny_N, Jul 2025
It was okay, i can say that it was a good experience but food didn’t meet my expectations for the price i paid.
Gillian_R, Jul 2025
Food was ordinary drinks were not included and it was over crowded. Not much of a welcome or thank you and good night on departure. All a little under whelming tbh .
Kathleen_U, Jun 2025
A very worthwhile activity. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, met very friendly people onboard. It was smooth sailing, great sunset and delicious food.
CATHERINE_H, Jun 2025
A little pricey for what you get. We were underwhelmed with what was on offer in the buffet of a vanilla style. Lots of people cramped on board too.
Maria_M, Jun 2025
Seafood is NOT the big feature that is advertised and I would like to have had a commentary of where the boat was sailing to and a little bit of a history lesson.
Lynne_P, Jun 2025
We sat out the front of the boat and enjoyed a beautiful sunset with beautiful food and amazing staff.
