Great tour, with lovely nibbles & nice bubbles (although I think may have been low alcohol) Had an enjoyable evening
I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful sea. The sunset view on the sailing boat was absolutely stunning. The whole trip was relaxing and comfortable. It was such a wonderful experience watching the sky change colours over the ocean. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting here.
Jenny and Harrison were fantastic, made the sunset cruise a relaxed and enjoyable vibe! Great laughs and a general great time! 100% recommend and we will definitely be going again with them
Thanks Melanie and so glad you enjoyed it. There's been some beautiful tropical sunsets recently.
This experience was a lovely addition to our holiday. The crew were very friendly and we all enjoyed ourselves.
Thanks Tania and glad we made a good addition to your holiday and you enjoyed the sunset.
It was a very relaxing experience and everything ran right on time, just as stated on the ticket. We were welcomed aboard with a complimentary drink, and snacks were provided throughout the cruise. The views were absolutely stunning, especially as the sun began to set over the islands. It was the perfect way to unwind and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Whitsundays. I highly recommend this cruise for couples, families, or anyone looking to relax and spend quality time with their loved ones while taking in the amazing views.
That's a great recommendation and thank you for finding time to review us. We do appreciate it.
We loved our sailing experience. The crew were all friendly and attentive, and the scenery was spectacular!
Thanks Jill belatedly. We really value your review.
It state on ticket 5pm leaving and need to be there 15min before the time we arrived 4:36 to find boat left at 4:30 and after my email complaining i got a email to say cruise was cancelled due to weather not very professional
Hi, Sorry about your disappointment. Checkin is at 1645 and boat sails at 1700 as is on ticket. If cruise was cancelled due to bad weather we always try and contact guests via the phone.If they don't answer we send a text and email usually well before scheduled sail time.
The loveliest most romantic sunset cruise. Best experience with your love ones, partner, bf/gf even with friends. Tho I experienced it alone, still I enjoyed it. I will definitely do it again if I’ll be with my future bf🤣🤣🤣
Beautiful review and thanks so much and glad you felt the romance in our tropical sunsets. Hope to see you back again with the lucky person
Finally left port 15 minutes late after being told to arrive early. Weather looked threatening,although skipper told me he had checked weather radar.Neither of the crew introduced themselves. Lifejackets were ancient and safety demonstration poor on how to put them on. We got out of the Marina and it teemed with rain and blew a gale so skipper decides too windy and wet so heads in an hour early. This is not a good way to operate a business.crew were very disorganised and seemed very inexperienced. We all should have been offered a refund or better still check weather before we leave and cancel.
Sorry to hear this Amanda. We have some inaccurate forecasts over the past two weeks which has led to unhappiness all round. So we do apologise. We always cancel if rain is on the radar and this time it hadn't shown up.
It was nice but not amazing. We were thinking about moving at sunset but the sailboat simply left the port and hovered for 1 hour. It was nice and the staff was really friendly but the experience lacks movement. Besides, we were pretty tight on the boat, about 25 people.
