Our family recently enjoyed a 3‑hour sunset cruise with Nitsa, and it was nothing short of wonderful. From the moment I first spoke with her, the entire process was smooth, friendly, and effortless. Nitsa has a warmth and generosity that instantly puts you at ease, and she added so many thoughtful touches that made the experience unforgettable. The boat itself was immaculate — comfortable leather seating, covered to protect you from the weather if needed, handy tables and cup holders, chilled ice chests for our drinks, and a quiet, peaceful ride that made the whole experience feel magical. Every member of our family commented on how relaxing it was. What truly stood out was how beautifully Nitsa interacted with our children (4 and 6). She let them take the wheel, toot the horn, and wear the captain’s hat. Their excitement was priceless, and they’re already asking when we can go again. After a few postponed attempts last year due to illness and then a cyclone, Nitsa was incredibly accommodating. She offered a refund or the option to rebook whenever we could travel, and the process was simple and stress‑free. On the morning of the cruise, we received a warm welcome message, and by the time we stepped aboard, it genuinely felt like we were heading out with a friend. Nitsa made the day truly special. If you’re thinking about booking a cruise, choose Nitsa and Duffy. It’s an experience you’ll absolutely love.
Thank you Meagan so much for your beautiful review. It truly means the world to me. It was such a pleasure having your lovely family finally 😀 onboard, and I’m so happy to hear how much you all enjoyed the cruise. Your beautiful well mannered children, were such a delight to have onboard they both Captained the boat beautifully, seeing their excitement when they took the helm, their smiles were priceless! I’m also very grateful that you and your family finally had the opportunity to travel to the Gold Coast, after the earlier postponements. Sometimes life (and the weather!) has other plans, so I’m really glad we were able to finally make it happen and create such a special experience together. Thank you again for choosing to cruise with us, you’re always welcome back anytime! I’d love to see the kids at the helm again! ⚓️ PS thank you for the thoughtful gift, being on the water, the cream & lip balm from Kangaroo Island will be a welcome relief, I’ll think of you each time I use it!
It was the perfect small group activity as part of a 50th birthday celebration and girls trip. We loved the whole experience and our skipper Vlad was the perfect captain. We chose the sunset cruise and were lucky enough to have calm night and gorgeous sunset, fair to say we got some amazing photos and made some wondeful memories.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re thrilled to hear the sunset cruise was such a memorable part of your 50th birthday celebration and girls trip. Sunset is a beautiful time to be on the water and It’s wonderful that the weather was perfect and you were able to capture some amazing photos. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Vlad—he’ll be delighted to know he helped make your experience so special. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure, on your next visit to the Gold Coast! Thanks again⚓️
This is our second year cruising and celebrating our Christmas lunch with our organisation’s volunteers. Another fabulous experience that everyone loved. So relaxing and peaceful. The skippers are fantastic and very accommodating. Thanks again Duffy’s, see you next year!
Thank you Sarah for taking the time to provide a review and your continued support. It was a beautiful way to thank your volunteers for all the do for your organisation. Looking forward to seeing you again in 2024! Happy New Year!
The houses we saw were out of this world. Gordon explained who lived in some of them. A great 4 hours spent on his boat. Thank you.
Thank you so much John (and the Gillian Island Crew) for the glowing review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your 4 hours onboard with Gordo. The homes on our cruise are certainly a House Alert, I could name a few I would like to call ours, hahaha. We look forward to seeing you all once again on a return trip to the Gold Coast!
This was a beautiful family and 50th birthday highlight! We loved our skipper Gordon and his wife Nitsa who put on the most amazing food spread. This is a must do on your visit, highly recommend.
Thank you Carli and Richard, for taking the time to provide a 5 star review, both Gordon and I are delighted that your experience with us for Richard's surprise 50th celebrations was enjoyed by you and your family. You must be very proud of your gorgeous, well mannered children, they were a delight to have onboard! Thanks once again, and we do hope to be able to welcome you back onboard in the not too distant future!
staff Christmas party and it was fantastic so glad we did this, my staff got to relax as Gordan skippered us around. Gordan and Nista both went out of their way to make the experience easy from booking to docking. A must do again ...... saving up for this year's Christmas party!
Thank you Tricia for taking the time to review your experience you had with us for your staff Christmas Party. It certainly is a lovely way to sit back and relax having a Skipper onboard. We can't wait to welcome you back onboard with us for this years Christmas Party! Until then, happy days
We did a 3 hour boat cruise around the gold coast waterways. Nitsa the owner was our skipper for my Hens party. We had the best time! Honestly, it was the highlight of my hens weekend. Nitsa took heaps of photos of our group and allowed me to play my own music nice and loud! She also organized water, champagne glasses and ice buckets. The table on board was movable, meaning that after we’d eaten Nitsa moved the table so we had our very own dance floor! Nitsa also stopped at her mooring halfway through the cruise so we could use the ladies toilet (but there is also one on board!). The boat comfortably fit 8 of us girls. We ate, danced and drank whilst looking at some of the richest houses, people enjoying their meals at the wharf and some dolphins! So many great memories to cherish forever! Thanks Nitsa :)
Thank you Lisa for the amazing review! We certainly appreciate the time you took to share your delight, you and your tribe experienced for your Hen's Party here on the Gold Coast! Our aim is to strive to provide the best customer service while making your time on the water a memorable one. It warms my heart to know we met with your expectations. Our best wishes to you and your partner for the next of many memories to cherish....your up coming Wedding! Here is to the day of wedded bliss! :-)
WOW. What an amazingly fun day. Highly recommended. Self drive an electronic boat around the river and canals. We self catered but you can pop into The Isle of Capri for a meal. It's a unique Goldcoast. MUST DO!
Thank you Jayne for your amazing review, we are delighted that you enjoyed you day out on the water with us. We are equally excited to hear that you advised fellow travellers that we are a unique Gold Coast Must Do! We certainly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you onboard again in the not to distant future!
