Really enjoyable day. The food served was delicious and every team member was so friendly and helpful. I was glad I took lots of layers so I could walk around outside on the cruise and take wonderful photos rain or shine then head back indoors to the best coffee, warmth and a comfortable seat. If you do have a seat preference I recommend checking which seat you are allocated as you check in early and collect your tickets which is done before boarding. To help with motion sickness I prefer right beside the window so I had to do a quick dash back to the ticket booth to change seats. Lucky for me the boat was not full and the team accommodated my request. I love that the big red boat is family owned and run - 3 generations I believe driving the boat. Wow. They all have such a wonderful respect of the area, the environment and the privilege they have working on it every day. Big thank you to the whole big red boat team an exceptional day.

It was a relaxing time - beautiful scenery - I am a little disadvantaged due to health issues so didn’t go on the guided tour - I did have a look at the first sites on Sarah island & purchased the booklets. I had attended the play a few nights before - which made more sense once I had been on the cruise. I would advise anyone to do the cruise first - before attending the play - it would make it more meaningful for the viewer. I would like to say that dressing should be applied to the coleslaw or at least provided separately -( it was dry & unpalatable- ) The cruise was a most enjoyable way to end our stay in Strahan! Thank you!!!

A fabulous day not to be missed! Everything from the boat to the staff, the information, the food to the onshore side excursions were fabulous. This really opened our eyes to early experiences in the area….the treatment of the aborigines , conditions experienced on the penal colony of Sarah Island and the fight to save the Gordon River from the proposed dam. All information delivered in a very entertaining way that had you hanging on every word. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
