Nice one hour cruise with overciew of the capstown city and table mountain. I.wish they had commentary along side the cruise though
Excellent trip. Perfect duration. Highly recommended. Total value for money. Well organised trip. Fantastic
Was a great trip plenty of choice of drinks on board with added bonus of seeing loads of dolphins 🐬 staff were really nice only thing I'd suggest is making the trip longer and serve a cold or hot buffet on board would make a great trip into a spectacular trip
The catamaran in use was the “sea princess , not like the one in the picture. Also, compared to other catamaran trips we’ve taken from the waterfront , we were told our 10 and 12 year old kids had to stay inside the cabin, and not use the outside decks.
Amazing trip. Super friendly crew, great catamaran. Lovely outing or our family. Highly recommend for families, tourists or team building
Great experience, easy to book, and well organised. Equipment and boat well maintained, and overall good experience
I enjoyed the boat cruise, which offered stunning views, a friendly crew, and a peaceful atmosphere. It was a perfect escape for anyone seeking serenity on the water!
Very neat, safe and the music is beautiful. Crew is great, such gentlemen and helpful. Over all 120% service.
The staff should loosen up a bit and be more accommodating, it was a short sail but its definitely worth it, welcome drinks should be offered
What an amazing experience and the crew made it even more fun The cruise is great with music for a good vibe and the views from the boat are amazing! Would definitely recommend this for young and old
