Jennifer_B, Jan 2025
Fantastic experience and wonderful commentary on board. She was bright, enthusiastic and clearly passionate about the flora and fauna of the area. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour and loved watching the dolphins ride along side the boat. Recommend this experience. Will definitely do it again and try some of the other Mandurah cruise options. Thank you for a great afternoon!

Was a lovely boat ride, but not too many dolphins around as years ago. Maybe include another place of interest

Very educational trip about Perth and it's surroundings. Money well spent and we saw plenty of dolphins

I’m sure it’s hit and miss to see the dolphins but ours was definitely a miss. We saw two fins from a far distance and it was over an hour ride. The lady speaking didn’t take a breathe the whole trip. So we had to listen to a constant monotone voice of some narrating our trip ‘there’s a seagul, there’s a house etc’. Myself, my husband and 3 kids travelled from Perth and we were unfortunately all very bored and very disappointed with the cruise.

Couldn’t hear the commentary, only saw the fins of two dolphins. For those that had to sit inside perhaps don’t allow people to sit on the front of the boat because you can’t see anything
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for your review and sorry to hear you found the commentary level low, I will follow up on this with our crew and hope to see you again soon!

I was disappointed as we could hardly see a glimpse or two of a couple of dolphins and that too at a very later part of your.

It was much more than what we had expected. The cruise was probably the highlight of our trip to Perth and though we only managed to spot a couple of dolphins, the entire ride around the bay gave us a most memorable and mesmerizing picture of Mandurah! The commentary was professionally done as well! Great job and thanks for a most wonderful experience!
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Wow thank you for your amazing review and so pleased to hear our cruise was a highlight of your trip.
We hope to see you again soon!
