Great lunch cruise from Perth to Freo

Marta 27 December 2025

We love the cruise. It was very well coordinated. Set tables so none of scrambling to get window seats. The staff were kind, attentive and professional. I could not fault them. The buffet was well coordinated and controlled. The passengers were invited to serve themselves table by table. The food was replenished multiple times. The food itself was appetising and varied. I loved that it was mainly Western food (Boxing day-Christmas spread?) The drinks were reasonably priced. The cruise was smooth sailing all the way. We will do it again!

Hi Marta, we’re so happy to hear about your positive experience! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

Lunch on the Swan

Colin 10 December 2025

I found the cruise missed a lot of opportunities especially for international tourists. The repeat commentary on way back from Fremantle was disappointing and wasn’t aware it was a two way trip for non lunch goers.

Hi Colin, thanks so much for your feedback. We are always looking for ways to improve so I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Amazing day out

Medina 6 May 2025

This was the highlight of our Sydney trip. The boat was spacious with a great deck. Lunch was amazing- every dish was superb. There was only one dessert-chocolate mouse- but it capped off a great experience. 10/10 for the tour guide as well.-so informative.
