Definitely worth doing! - Put this on your “must do” list for Cairns. Joe, our captain and tour guide, kept us entertained as we cruised around Trinity Inlet. Full of interesting and relevant facts, he was the icing on the cake for this fabulous cruise.

Great value, hospitality, history and scenery. - Fantastic little tour and hospitality. Our guide had so much information/history about the transformation of the marina and shipping/export activities from Cairns. He was also extremely well informed about the mangroves and what they do for the area. Even spotted a crocodile. Definitely worth doing.

Don't miss this one. A perfect way to spend a few hours. - Jacob went above and beyond to provide a fascinating tour full of history, information about the area, the businesses on the inlet, the boats moored in the inlet, the mangroves, flora and fauna, weather, and recent cyclonic activities. We were lucky enough to experience a monsoonal downpour during which I captured some amazing images. Jacob was a font of information and must have talked almost non-stop for the entire trip whilst expertly navigating the waterway.

Relaxing and Informative Cruise - The whole cruise was great from start to finish. For the time slot that I chose, I was the only person booked on the afternoon cruise. They could have easily cancelled the cruise and I would have understood, but they decided to do it anyway just with myself and the skipper. The cruise was informative and plenty of points of interest shown throughout the cruise. It was a really lovely time and a good way to fill up a bit of time in the afternoon. Highly recommended.

Fun and In formative - This was a great little cruise. Our guide (I think his name was Samuel but don't throw me to the crocodiles if I'm wrong) was extremely friendly and had a great sense of humour. He had a really good knowledge of the area and the history of the place. He also knew a lot about the wildlife in the area. He knew exactly where to go to spot a crocodile.
This cruise was really enjoyable and great value for money. I'd definitely recommend it.

A great little escape from the hustle and bustle of Cairns - A lovely, restful and interesting getaway, up the quiet mangrove-lined creeks a few minutes out of the Cairns marina. Our guide was an engaging local who knew the history of the area, what birds and animals we might see and who lived on what houseboat. Good value.

Worthwhile 90 mins - Good boat trip for those who can’t do more than 90 mins due to time constraints- entertained by Darwin boy now working in Cairns- who knows about the tropics and crocs- mangroves are thick and didn’t realise the inlets were full of decrepit boats-

A lovely morning out - We did this at the last minute and really enjoyed it! It’s a relaxing cruise around the inlet - unfortunately not any wildlife to be seen this day - but still a very interesting cruise around the mangroves. Lovely captain and a soft drink to enjoy whilst you meander.
