Went on the Twilight Cruise around the canals and out to the marina. Had a really relaxing and enjoyable time. The weather was pleasant and a little bit fresh but perfect for an outside river cruise. The vessel was reasonably basic but certainly very comfortable and just the thing for this experience. Certainly don't want a whale watch catamaran style vessel for this. The crew was welcoming and helpful. Food and drink was appropriate for this experience. We sat on the top deck and had a lovely 'glass' of bubbly delivered. You can sit inside. The commentary was delivered by the captain and was clear, engaging and interesting. No pre-recorded loop. We enjoyed it and others on the cruise appeared to do likewise. It would have been nice to have come back a different way but that may not have been possible.
Enjoyable cruise, light refeshments

I cannot recommend this Sightseeing River Cruise enough! The team were helpful and accommodating from start to finish. I organised it from abroad for a special birthday with family and friends and they were super friendly, super kind and it was a great experience all round. The captain even let the kids have a go on the wheel!
Thank you so much for this incredible 5-star review! We are absolutely thrilled that we could help celebrate such a special birthday with you, your family and friends. Organising an event from abroad can be daunting, so we're glad our team could make the process smooth for you. It is fantastic to hear that the kids had a blast behind the wheel. Thank you for the high recommendation, and we hope to welcome you all back next time you are visiting the Gold Coast. Kind regards, Surfers Paradise River Cruises.
