We had a lovely boat tour. Staff was very friiendly and our guide very knowledgable. It was nice to be able to move around to the top deck and that there were refreshments on board. Spotted loads of hippo's and even 2 crocs. - Marjon
Great time had by all. Would have liked to see crocodiles. - Cheryl
Thank you for a memorable cruise! Dennis, our captain and guide was very knowledgeable and provided very interesting information throughout the cruise. He also knew when to be silent, which awarded us the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful, serene, quiet surroundings. We were fortunate to see quite a few hippos and beautiful birds, and with the sun setting over the estuary as we went back to Sunset Jetty, I felt fortunate and proud to be a South African! Booking online was easy and the team was very organised in receiving us at the jetty. We had a great experience at a very good price. Thank you! - Andre
My husband and I had a great experience at the boat cruise. The captain was very knowledgeable and funny, we got to learn a lot about the crocodiles and hippos. I would definitely hop in again! - Mahlatsi
We had a fantastic boat cruise on the St Lucia Estuary. We say a lot of Hippo pods, a rare bird, and a beautiful landscape. We even had a nice sundown. The captain and his crew were very professional. The captain had a lot of respect for the animals witch we liked very much. He had a lot of information about the wildlife, nature and the hippos. Sadly we didn't see any crocs. We had a fantastic time on the Estuary!! - Gwen
