    The Captain was very entertaining and shared the history of the many highlights as we cruised the river and Marina. A beautiful and relaxing afternoon to cruise this gorgeous river all the way to the ocean.

    Lovely on the water, beautiful staff and well organised. Good to see how the other half live. Cheese and cracker were sweet, drink prices very affordable, even had happy hour for a short while.
    Know Gold Coast in 90 minutes

    Trip was short, but nice. Staff were good and courteous. It would have been still better if on the way, history of the important places would be told to the tourists and on return some entertainment program is added.
    Good

    Liam_W, Aug 2019
    This was one of the highlights to my Gold Coast trip. The jet boat was seriously a lot of fun and a great way to get soaked. The chopper ride out over the city as the sun was setting was also a brilliant cap to a great experience.
    Great thing to do

    river cruise
    Jenson_M, June 2019
    the crew member onwarded Ashlee performed very well. She is very much friendly and helpful thru out. A note of big thanks to her. please retain her for her excellent performance and service onboard. Captain Peter performed very well too, He gives very clear and direct information for all the spots which were visited. The whole cruise journery is well planned. one particular thanks to the Operation Manager is her telephone reminder when me and my son were rushing in the street to the boarding venue. Highly appreciate this personalised service. Well done
    Relaxing
    Karen_S, Jan 2019

    Excellent afternoon cruise
    robert_h, Dec 2018
    My family and I really enjoyed our cruise last sunday afternoon. The boat was comfortable and the crew very friendly and helpful. We got to see the Gold Coast canals and harbours with a quiet drink and pleasant commentary. For a reasonable price this is a trip worth doing.
