Amazing food, amazing views, great staff. Well worth the money
Fantastic boat cruise, very relaxing, delicious platters. Staff were lively. Just need to change the music that was playing all the cruise, it was terrible,
More and more hospitality venues and tourism operators are taking the care and the extra step to understand and ensure guests' dietary needs are taken into consideration. Having a severe food allergy (not an intolerance or lifestyle food choice) it was pleasing to be greeted by the Captain of the MV Charles Darwin who personally recognised the important of getting this right. With peace of mind, were were treated to a wonderful evening with a pearler of a sunset and a full moon rising over Darwin. Attentive staff and a relaxed setting made the experience memorable. Only one suggestion - the music was conducive to the setting but a bit on the loud side over dinner.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re thrilled to hear that you felt your dietary needs were genuinely considered during your time on the Charles Darwin. It’s great to know that the Captain and staff made such a positive impact on your evening. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful sunset. Your feedback regarding the music volume is valuable, and we will certainly take it into consideration to enhance our guests' experiences in the future. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable evening soon!
Beautiful setting and food was fab. Staff were friendly. Very enjoyable evening. Would definitely recommend.
A great experience on a balmy Darwin evening. The staff were exceptional, always friendly, attentive and efficient. The platters were very generous servings with many assorted delicacies, the background music was so relaxing and the sunset spectacular. A wonderful way to see Darwin on our first night there.
Thank you for leaving a review and spending your first night in Darwin with us. We are so delighted that you had a great experience and the staff were exceptional too.
Got an excellent deal on ‘GetYourGuide’ so make sure you shop around for the best price. It was $104 each. Excellent value. Especially considering we had a platter each. I wasn’t expecting that at all. Even my 2 year old got his own platter and was in his element! Locally made mango ice-cream for dessert was a nice touch too. Beautiful sunset views. Only thing I would fault was that we were waiting a while to order a drink. We didn’t realise you had to wave the servers down to order. Otherwise just a minor thing and everything was great. If you’re looking for a more touristy experience with a commentary of Darwin history and buildings that you pass I’d book sail darwin. This cruise is top deck seating with no commentary. (Which as locals we enjoyed)
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback, Aimee! We’re delighted to hear that you found our cruise to be excellent value, especially with the generous platters and the locally made mango ice-cream. It’s great to know that even your little one had such a wonderful time too. We appreciate your understanding and the tip about waving down our servers and appreciate this piece of feedback. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable sunset cruise in the future!
Thoroughly enjoyed the cruise. Recommend the Gaze and Graze option. Plenty of food, music and a great view on the top, open deck. Unfortunately service was sometimes slow, but I’d definitely do it again when in Darwin.
Thank you for enjoying our sunset cruise with us! We will pass your feedback on to our team around the service.
It was an absolutely amazing service and experience and all the staff on board were absolutely amazing
Great to catch a amazing sunset trip with family up from Perth, booked a table on the top deck, enjoyed continental platters and complimentary first drinks, we never had kangaroo before so delicious. Great views & breeze ☆☆☆☆☆ Lynette & co WA
