Good value

Arranged for a 7.00am pick-up. Arrived on time and was at the boat ramp when I returned. Well eqioped boat, but I should have opted for the larger, more pwerful one for not much more money. Nic couldn't have been more accommodating.

Awesome Boat Tour

Very friendly people! Nice little boats and great places to see! You will see the same things like on the jetski tours but more than half the price.
