Perfection!
What a wonderful way to end the day in Knysna!!Beautifully restored classic wooden boat with a leisurely, calm cruise out to The Heads and then back in, just in time for an amazing sunset. Watched the other Knysna boats head back to the docks - and they missed this spectacular view.Peter was a wonderful captain, narrator, and wisely asked if we wanted a few extra minutes in the bay, to watch that sunset.Perfection!

Wasted my money and time on the Coquette
This was peaceful and scenic and the only reason why it gets 1 star. You would expect the skipper and tour guide to at least be fluent in English and be a bit more informative.

Highly recommended. Great skipper.
This was so much fun and the skipper was so cool and informative. The trip to the heads is very much recommended. Very scenic and idyllic. Very calm water unless you head out to sea.

Great trip
We had an amazing time on board Coquette - the boat is beautiful with plenty of history and well maintained. Peter the captain alongside his team, were great with all the guests and we were made to feel very welcome. We chose to supplement our trip with some refreshments which, for us, was definitely the correct choice and they were well presented and chilled. The sunset tour was perfect for us and the views of the lagoon and the heads were fantastic. I would recommend this tour to families and couples alike.

A magic trip in a magic lagoon
The weather was beautiful and we really enjoyed our leisurely tour of the lagoon. The staff were very helpful and the boat is an historic treasure. A lovely way to see Knysna.

Very nice walk!
Welcome , nice companion. Nice family walk (8 adults and grandchildren ) Clean boat . Beautiful discovery of the lagoon , the foothills surrounding it , privileged villas , up to the pass leading to the ocean . Between 1 or 2 hours of relaxation appreciated for a correct cost of about 40 euros with conso .

Very relaxing
A really relaxing trip around the bay and to the Heads. Our skipper was polite, friendly and informative. If you fancy something a little chilled their 102 year old Thames launch it ideal

Magic Lagoon cruise
The day of our trip it was raining so after a quick phone call we rearranged for two days later when the sun was shining. We had a wonderful trip it was very informative and all our questions were answered

Expensive for what we experienced.
We got off to a bad start when the young skipper suggested we sit at the back of the boat - as it was better for him! He wouldn’t have to talk so loudly, he explained. How about a small mic? Aside from that - and while he was perfectly nice - he didn’t ask anything about his four passengers, to let us get to know one another and, while he did his best, was unable to answer a lot of our questions. We got the feeling this was not his regular job, so we’d spent quite a lot of money on a 1hr 15m boat ride where we saw no wildlife, and nothing we hadn’t already seen from being on land. We booked on the strength of the excellent reviews but for us, Unfortunately it wasn’t magical at all, especially for the price (we paid much the same for 2-3 hour game drives), and we were rather disappointed.
