Great time on the water

Published on Jan, 2025

It is an informative and relaxed way to spend 2.5 hours! A comfortable boat - attentive and knowledgeable staff and simply a great time on the river.

Tazzy Tiki Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Tour was excellent, crew were fantastic. Cataract gorge was spectacular. Only issue was that it's hard to hear the commentary outside.

Peaceful cruise along the tamar river

Published on Nov, 2024

A wonderful way to see the beautiful city of Launceston, the tamar wetlands, and the cataract gorge. I also loved the wine tasting as we passed the vineyards that made it and the skipper was very knowledgeable, pointing out four white-bellied sea eagles. Very peaceful peaceful tour for a decent price.

Cruising the Tamar River, Launceston

Published on Nov, 2024

A lovely cruise up Tamar River as far as Rosevears followed by brief sojourn in the Cataract Gorge. Really loved the flock of seagulls following the boat. The gorge is a really special place. Nice to be spoilt with morning tea, cakes, fresh fruit and the opportunity to taste local wines & lager.

Fabulous trip, Great host and guide

Published on Nov, 2023

Callum and Lucas were an excellent guide and host. We learnt so much about the history of Launceston. We even got to see the rare sight of a young male sea eagle with an eele in his talons. I would highly recommend the experience
