Absolutely Fantatic
This was the highlight of our trip . Tony was a great captain, very knowledgeable and friendly. He took us to see wildlife and the most amazing geologic formations venturing outside the harbour. Coming back in we saw the other tours, packed and circling within the harbour and thanked our luck in choosing this one. Highly recommend, Shelley

Hi Shelley Thank you for this fabulous review. We love to take our passengers outside the harbour whenever possible, there's so much to see out there. All the best. Tony and Mafi
