    Excellent service and transport facilities to and from the island. The trip was well organized throughout the day. Never a dull moment. The day consisted of 3 tours, desert bus trip and sand sledding, kayaking and snorkeling. The guides were superb and the lunch was great. Excellent to provide sunscreen for everyone.

    Much more interesting and fun than I thought it might be. Even with my old, jaded senses it was still exciting to go from land to water. Treats for the little kids, souvenirs to buy on board and the hostess offering to take photos with your own phone, were appreciated extras. (Although the novelty quacking whistles got annoying very quickly. 😆)
    Interesting commentary from the driver mixed in with some dad jokes topped of a pleasant way to spend an hour.

    Had a fantastic time on this cruise, the staff are all very friendly and safety focused. The Tangalooma wrecks are a great snorkelling spot where we saw many different fish species and the wrecks themselves are very interesting to explore. 45 minutes is a good amount of time to for this snorkel tour. Beach time was fun, the island provided a calm swimming spot. There was a strong current during both snorkelling and the beach swim so a moderate swimming ability is required in both cases.

    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.

    This was a wonderful self drive cruise in a quiet, roomy, comfortable, electric boat. Sailing quietly along the canals was so peaceful and very interesting. The boat canopy is open sided but provides complete shade. Nitsa was really helpful and friendly in telling us how to manage the boat ( it's very easy) and where to travel on the canal. We'll definitely come back and do this cruise again.

    This was a great experience seeing the Gold Coast from the water. The commentary was interesting and seeing all the posh houses was great. We got off at Marina Mirage and had lunch and then waited for the boat back to Surfers.
