The 10 March 2013 we were a small group of 9 Scandinavians that had a tour in the Lagoon of Knysna, with a superguy/guide called Steven. We added on, to the price, a glas of white wine and some oysters to taste and we had a very nice time on the boat. Steven had a lot of knowledge about the... More

I recently took my employees on a trip with KNYSNA CHARTERS for their annual outing. Everything was organised really well and Stephen was an absolute pleasure. A lot of my employees have stayed in Knysna their whole life but haven't been out on the lagoon. Stephen gave them a very knowledgable background and history which they really enjoyed. It was...

Great informative boat trip. When we got to Knysna charters it was raining. The skipper said it would be better to postpone our trip to the next morning. We really appreciated that he postponed it till the next morning. There were no extra costs for this. Boattrip on the lagoon was about 1 hour. Interesting information about shipwrecks and oyster...

Had a great trip out to The Heads. Weather was very good, guy was very friendly to us all. He let the children on the boat take part in a bit of navigation too. Safety was uppermost in his attitude too, which is very healthy when people are on the water. All good fun, no hesitation in recommending the company.

Just the two of us on our own personal tour of the lagoon in the excellent care of Steve. A perfect lazy afternoon spotting the wild life in the air and the water, sampling local oysters and wine all the time being kept well informed about what we were seeing and sampling.
