Another very hot day, our dinner cruise leaves at 5pm, stil, hot, hope they do have shade, Yes they do ! seating arrangement simple,  gives you a chance to talk to other guests. I must admit I have been on many dinner cruises and was not expecting this to be any different. We had good mix of people around us... More

We didn't select this cruise prior to arriving in Darwin but chose it because everyone in Darwin was raving about it. Whilst the boat, food and cruise were superb the staff didn't deliver to me. Lacked some commentary about where we were , what we were passing etc indeed the staff stayed in the "shadows" Is that a major criticism... More

If you are in Darwin you should definitely consider this cruise. Competitive price and for the cruise including a three course dinner it is well worth it. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, our server was Suzy who had no problem answering our questions and making sure we were well taken care of. We had the fish as a... More

Beautiful cruise... Amazing sunset... Geeat atmosphere...Very friendly and attentive staff. Love that you can BYO! Food is only OK. Buffet of prawns, oysters etc for entree was very generous. Main course of steak was almost inedible - gristly, chewy and fatty - both mine and my partners - and we are not fussy eaters by any means! On the menu... More

I booked this cruise for my parents who were over visiting. Wasn't sure what it would be like bit just fancied something "different" for a change. We all loved it. Excellent table service , in fact better than any restaurant. The waitress Susan was extremely attentive, but not invasive. She had just all the right qualities. The food was again... More

A very well-organised tour with friendly, efficient crew and yummy food. There was plenty for everyone (fresh oysters & prawns) and there was no rushing or crowding to line up at the bain-marie. The steaks were also beautifully cooked to our liking, as tasty. But the real reason for doing this cruise is to view the incredible sunset over the... More

What a great way to spend an evening, cruising Darwin Harbour, enjoying a glass of wine and a pleasant meal. Just so relaxing. The Cape Adieu crew, from the skipper to wait staff were friendly and helpful. Set up was very comfortable, not overcrowded. We felt very welcome.The sunset, of course, and the rising moon, added to to the atmosphere,... More

We have been on disappointing cruises before, but this one ticked all the boxes. Gorgeous environment and weather (can't blame them for that), good service, good food (almost a first for us as far as boatboard experiences go). The commentary from the captain was sparing, which we appreciated since we already had a fair idea of most of the things... More

Was worried of going on a 'tourist' tour where I'd feel like I've paid too much for nothing - this was NOTHING like that. The crew were amazing! Attentive to all your needs, nothing was too much and it was okay to ask for more of something that was gone from the buffet. Susan had the energy and enthusiasm that... More

I shall not bother you by regurgitating what has been written about this cruise by other contributors. Suffice to say the cruise operators have this little gem down pat. The food, the hospitality, the professionalism, the sunset (ahhhh, the sunset!) all lead to a hugely relaxing and satisfying two hours and forty minutes of bliss. A big "well done" to... More
