Lovely evening sunset cruise. The staff on board were lovely and so helpful. Lots of drink options available and a really nice atmosphere - great music choices which added to the experience.

The sail ship was very authentic. Beautiful views and sunset. We met so.e lovely people on board. As a short person it was hard to get any of the morning tea as it was too high. Otherwise a lovely 2 hours on board.

Did to venture to location as described, zero safety briefing, champagne was warm, food dumped in the middle of the boat and only 2 people told it was there was being passed around by some passengers who eventually dropped it as people were being thrown about in the choppy waves while the captain was chatting and not realising his direction. Ropes broke off the boat when we arrived back so deckhand was throwing a heavy rope to an elderly woman passenger to catch on repeat from the jetty. After we got tied off they hadn’t tightened the exit ropes so everyone was jumping from the boat to the jetty over half a meter while the crew watched. Avoid

This was a beautiful afternoon in a beautiful location. The people running the cruise were very kind.

The description said, we sail around Hamilton island to watch the sunset. The sail boat was lovely. The crew were nice but in reality we only sailed less than 1km outside the harbour, 15 mins sailing, before the engines turned off and two small sails were lifted. We then bobbed up and down on the waves for 1 and a half hrs gradually getting closer to the shore. Everyone was looking expectantly wondering what was going to happen next. Nothing did except everyone feeling sick due to the waves and one poor chap was violently sick at least 3 times. Then the sun set and the engines started up and we sailed back. It was very poor value for money !!!

Very relaxing pleasurable experience. Unfortunately sailed into a rain shower, the photos of the rainbow were better than the sunset due to clouds, however, almost found the pot of gold at the end of it. Next time.

The views were amazing, the other passengers were friendly- the crew was great - the only disappointing feature was that there was only one sail up - the others were being repaired- I wanted to experience a sailing trip - I think you should be told this before going.

I enjoyed a wonderful sunset cruise with other people from around the country and the world. The cheese platter and sparkling wine enhanced the overall experience!!
