Sehr entspannter Trip im Cairns Inlet

Wir hatten einen tollen und entspannten Tag im Cairns Inlet. Einweisung und Betreuung war sehr gut. Boot war technich in einem top Zustand. Wir haben sogar zwei Krokodile beim Sonnen beobachten können und einige Fische gefangen. Würden wir gleich nochmal machen. Vielen Dank Wichtig: Insektenabwehr nicht vergessen!

Great day 😀

We had a great day out on the pontoon. Easy to follow instructions and map, pontoon was easy use manoeuvre. Plenty of space for everyone. Lots of sightseeing to do as well as fishing. Recommended activity for Cairns.

Would definitely book again.

Had a great time on the pontoon, boat was great , easy to use. Caught some fish, it rained a bit, so the canopy was great. Already making plans to book another trip.
