Great Evening - The boat was clean and comfortable, all staff were polite and curiosity. Food was plentiful and fresh. The sunset was superb and worthwhile viewing from the boat

Okay but missed the Darwin experience. - Seafood is NOT the big feature that is advertised and I would like to have had a commentary of where the boat was sailing to and a little bit of a history lesson.

Slightly unsatisfactory cruise - It was unclear when booking that there were assigned seats, and we ended up inside for the ride. Also, some of the food ran out

Darwin dinner cruise - A little pricey for what you get. We were underwhelmed with what was on offer in the buffet of a vanilla style. Lots of people cramped on board too.

Disappointing - Food was average with no oysters just prawns and buffet didn’t meet expectations. No atmosphere. Staff were pleasant enough. Overpriced for what it was .

No commentary so this experience was not as promised. Not worth the money in my view - Disappointing as there was no commentary at all despite the promise of one in the tour brochure. The staff were very friendly and efficient but as I can't digest onions and garlic the only main course options available to me were grilled fish and steamed vegetables. More like a hospital meal than a luxury one! Fortunately the puddings were good.

The service was fantastic... - The service was fantastic and the staff did an amazing job. The facilities were excellent, the cruise was great and the scenery was beautiful. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was very poor. The quantity was insufficient and was not in line with the price. There were limited options available, with only chicken or fish provided. As stated earlier the staff were the standout feature of the night, if the food could be improved it would be an amazing experience.
