Great morning out - It is a lovely way to spend the morning and see the mighty Murchison River. Grant and Tracy make you feel very welcome. They are happy to answer any questions.

Wonderful river cruise - What a lovely way to spend a morning with Tracy and Grant on the river. Friendly and knowledgeable. Just the right amount of commentary too. Stopped at Castle Rock for a walk, not quite to the top though. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and would recommend this to others. Thank you.

Educational and Fun - An excellent cruise. Great scenery and very educational. Grant explained so much about the local fishing and crayfish industry, local animals and history of the area. As a West Australian I was surprised how much I learnt. I loved his sense of humour and how he all made us feel very comfortable as a group.

Relaxing & Informative Cruise - Enjoyable & relaxing cruise, although we had a very cold morning and had to rug up! Grant & Tracy were lovely hosts! Grant gave us informative commentaries and Tracy served us all hot drinks and biscuits! We learnt a lot about Kalbarri and the general area from this cruise!
