A wonderful experience showing the wilderness, rugged landscape and peacefulness of the area. Hells gate was amazing and the Gordon river so peaceful. Sarah island and the landing were added bonus. Captain Andy and guides and crew just fabulous

Thank you for a great review! We’re so glad you enjoyed both Hell’s Gates and the peacefulness of the Gordon River. Captain Andy and the crew will be thrilled to hear your kind words.

A unique tour on the water at the west TAS. Informative and interesting. However, it would be even better if there is option of a hot meal.

Worth it for the wilderness

Emma_F, Jan 2024

The boat is very comfortable, the crew are super friendly and the wilderness is spectacular and special. The food was a missed opportunity to partner with and promote Tassie producers and provide something memorable ( in a good way)

An enjoyable cruise to see a beautiful part of Tasmania and listen to the history associated with this part of the world

Heari g about the history of the Gordon River and how the damming of it was ceased was interesting. My wife and I also enjoyed visiting Sarah Island to see and hear about the history associated with the Penal Station. The visit the dry rain forest was also interesting. Going past Macquarie Heads was also exciting when the cruise ship started to bop up and down.

A fabulous cultural and environmental experience.
