Great value amazing river cruise

Excellent value seafood lunch cruise. Great views of the high value homes on the river. Very good and funny commentary by the captain and excellent drinks service by the crew member. Nice seafood lunch as part of the cruise cost. Was good to learn about the Noosa River and surrounds. Very well worth while going on this cruise while you are in Noosa. The weather was beautiful and the views amazing.

Grand Old Lady doesn't disappoint!

I've had the pleasure of doing a number of cruises on this grand old lady over the years and she never fails to impress. Our most recent cruise was to celebrate another trip around the sun and I can think of no better way to spend a birthday. We chose the Seafood Lunch Cruise and the food was excellent. Captain Dan and his crew offer friendly and efficient service accompanied by an informative commentary. Bar prices are affordable and complimentary bottles of water are available to all passengers. Despite her age the Noosa Queen is a much loved vessel and this is evident in how beautifully looked after she is. I've no doubt she'll be around for many years to come. This is a lovely and relaxing way to experience the beauty of the Noosa River and I can't recommend it highly enough. This will not be my last Noosa Queen Experience.

Operator response

Thank you so much for such a beautiful and thoughtful review. We’re honoured to have been part of your birthday celebration and are so glad you enjoyed the Seafood Lunch Cruise, our crew, and the experience onboard. We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to welcoming you back again.

Experienced trip owners, but could still improve. Hope they do.

It was all a bit hurried and mildly hectic. Commentary was ok in part, but more emphasis was on the shoreside property prices we passed by. The food description was advertised as “delicious”, it’s not so delicious. The boat is spacious enough and with good deck access for sightseeing.

Operator response

Hi Geoff, thanks so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear your experience felt a bit rushed and that the commentary didn’t quite hit the mark. We’re still working on finding an easy flow for our new Seafood Lunch Cruise, as it only launched a few weeks ago, so your feedback is incredibly valuable while we fine-tune things. We’re also disappointed to hear the food didn’t meet your expectations. Your comments have been passed on to our team as we continue working to improve both quality and consistency. We’re glad you enjoyed the space on board and the views from the deck, and we truly appreciate the time you’ve taken to let us know where we can improve. We hope to welcome you back in the future for a smoother and much better experience.

Relaxing trip on old Noosa River Boat. Very kind Crew. Scenery gorgeous. Lovely Fish Lunch. Felt a bit like Huckleberry Finn.
