Nice tour - This is a nice little boat tour especially on a sunny day, some cheese and a glass of wine and the booze on board is very reasonably priced if you want more!

Great relaxing end to a day - Great relaxing trip with excellent views, the wine and cheese was top notch and there was plenty to go around. The amount of people on the trip is just right so that you can meet others while also having enough space to explore the boat, soak in the views and enjoy your drinks and cheese.

Disappointing trip around a beautiful lake - Disappointing- skipper and mate barely spoke and it ended up being just a little plod round the lake to the peninsula and back. Cheese board was also very limited in choice. Would have welcomed a bit of chat about the area and different parts of the lake
