Testimonials

"I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for the efforts you and your team put into making our school’s River Cruise such a success last Friday. The staff were an absolute pleasure to work with, and I was truly impressed by how smoothly everything ran. The food, photo booth, and DJ added so much to the evening’s enjoyment, and we’re grateful for the positive impact each element had."
- Ross Greef (School Charter)

"Good afternoon, we have just arrived back at school….tired but wanted to write and say what a FABULOUS time we had this afternoon with you. The crew couldn’t have been lovelier! Nothing was too much trouble and they were so good with the children. Al the DJ gave them a BALL…they loved him. The photobooth by Peter was a winner. Food was perfect and plenty for all. Our best ever cruise so I will be in touch to book again for next year. By the way, the James Stirling was a new vessel for us and an absolute winner. The coffee was the cherry on top for us teachers in the absence of alcohol! Thank you from all of us at St Mark’s. We appreciate it. "

"Attn: The Manager, Yesterday, my family and I spent the day on the "Perth's Best Wine" cruise, and as the owner of my own business I feel it important to inform your management that you have two AMAZING staff members in Bryce and Victoria (I think her name is Victoria - she had a great voice - I am sure that was her name..). The cruise was good, but because of the efforts put in by both Bryce and Victoria, they made the day an outstanding and extremely enjoyable family day out. Please do pass on my families thanks as their efforts did not go unnoticed!!"
- Loren, Alice, Wendy & Peter (Public Cruise)

"This is a letter of thanks to Janine who hosted my wife and I on your lunch cruise on sunday 1st July. She was friendly, helpful and could not do enough for all of the passengers on board. She is a real credit to your company and I would hope that her efforts do not go un-noticed by yourselves. We had a wonderful afternoon on what was a last minute decision by us to go on the cruise. Please pass this onto management and again thank Janine for her delightful manner in the way she hosted us"

There were 4 adults and I would like to record our very heartfelt thanks, to the crew on the day. Captain Tracy, and crew Sam and Tim, who made our trip very enjoyable. They are a great credit to Captain Cook Cruises. If we visit W A in the future we will certainly enjoy another cruise with your company. Please pass on our thanks to Tracy, Sam and Tim."

"Hi Amanda - Just wanted to say thank you very much for the fantastic tours you assisted us with whilst we were in Perth. Fremantle was great, and the full day lunch and wine tasting was most enjoyable. We really enjoyed our trip immensely to WA and have great memories of it. Again, much appreciated!"
- Tracey (Public Cruise)

"Yesterday my wife and I took my 86 year old mum on the Fremantle Explorer Cruise. What an experience! From purchasing the gift voucher in December, booking the tour, getting on board I have nothing but praise for your staff. Their friendliness and professionalism does your company proud. In particular I wish to commend the driver of the Hop on Hop off Tram in Fremantle. Ross was a wealth of knowledge which was shared in a typical Aussie fashion with all passengers who felt at ease with the commentary. Nothing was too much trouble for Ross. In short, our day was extremely delightful, and I would like you to let your staff know that their efforts were noted and appreciated. We will certainly be recommending this cruise to others. Thank you and cheers"

The Manager, Captain Cook Cruises Last Friday night, 14 female friends and myself did the 7.30pm cruise down to Fremantle and back. We had a wonderful time.... the food was great, the wine plentiful and the stand-in DJ for the night did a great job, having been called upon at the last minute to fill in.. Special mention is made of our captain Ian and also Luke, one of the stewards, who went out of his way to give us a great night, joining in whole-heartedly with our 'silliness'...It was a night none of us will forget in a hurry and well done to your friendly and helpful staff...

The service and food was exceptional and everyone had a fabulous evening. We have received fantastic feedback and I am really looking forward to Saturday night.

That just goes to show what service, food, beverage and good staff do - they make the whole night flow seamlessly.
