Fantastic sunset cruise in the inlet! - What a fantastic evening. Great drinks and nibbles. The perfect amount of narration. Lots of beautiful views while cruising around the mangroves and watching the sun set. Highly recommend this as the start to an evening in Cairns. Get back just in time for dinner reservations on the Boardwalk. A must do!

Charming knowledgeable and good value. - Good instructions, directions and easy to find. All ran to a smooth logical programme, a complimentary cold beer, wine or soda, good knowledge and description from pilot (Liam), combined with local ditties made for an enjoyable evening despite the cloudy weather spoiling the actual sunset.

Good Cairns Overview by Water - Beautiful boating through the mangroves, followed by a good view of the city. Was great to hear some local knowledge, including suggestions for dinner and drinks.

Beautiful boat and tour.... - Beautiful boat and tour. You guys were so sweet and welcoming. One small suggestion is to have a mic as the boat drowns out all the beautiful factoids you tell us.

The experience was... - The experience was relaxing. The drink and snack were a nice touch for that. But the ride itself was a little boring, except for the ships in which people were living were unexpected and interesting. The guide was pleasant, but not particularly knowledgeable. For example, I asked what the uniquely architected building with the white fluted roof was and he didn't know. He doesn't live in Cairnes so didn't know. I would think a tour guide for a site-seeing excursion in Cairnes would learn about the more interesting things we'd see on the excursion in Cairnes.
