Mabo75 did a sensational job in guiding the boat up and down the river and adding great commentary about the history and wildlife. Views were spectacular!!

From booking stage, to bus collection to the boat ramp. All very smooth. Skipper Lucas was professional and very knowledgeable. Thoroughly enjoyed his commentary on the Ord and history of area. The air con on the boat was 😜 wild. The afternoon tea was scrumptious and facilities clean. Wonderful sunset and ride back was surreal. Would highly recommend it to everyone. Very orderly tour.🤩

The cruise was amazing and very worthwhile. Mabo was a fantastic skipper and tour guide. We saw plenty of wildlife, the dam, had a lovely afternoon tea and returned home to some stunning reflections on the river and a magical sunset. Thank you!

Joey was an awesome host and skilled boat driver! He imparted plenty of local knowledge and history, as well as keeping the day light with some humour.

Geoff was fantastic and has a wealth of knowledge. The bird and animal life is well worth seeing. The bush lunch and commentary were excellent. A one man band.
