  • 4Peaceful boat ride

    Peaceful boat ride with fun facts and information about the area and wildlife from the skipper. Nice that you can organise food/drinks at the restaurant next door for on the boat (although take enough time, because it took a while for us)

    The experience was mind blowing and very much romantic. The cruise was scenic and the music was impeccable.

  • 5Great boat trip, baby friendly

    Wonderful time on a lovely clean and shaded boat cruising round the Knysna lagoon! Wonderful driver, very knowledgable and friendly. The perfect hot-day activity for my husband, 10-month old and myself.

  • 5A calming experience

    Great experience with our guide Waldo Meyer. The boat ride was soothing and peaceful. We could play our music by Bluetooth and sip on drinks ordered.

  • 5A worthy sunset cruise

    The guides have great hospitality and are knowledgeable about Knysna and Thesan Island. The boat was clean and very comfortable. The slow ride around the heads and island allows you to soak in the breathtaking scenery. A worthy sunset cruise!

About Knysna

Knysna is a lagoon town on South Africa's Garden Route, guarded by two sandstone cliffs called the Heads and backed by ancient forest.

Knysna lies on the Garden Route in the Western Cape, around a broad, tidal lagoon whose narrow entrance to the sea is guarded by two sandstone cliffs, the Knysna Heads. The waterfront has boats, craft markets and cafés, and homes cluster on Thesen Island. The surrounding forest, the largest of South Africa's indigenous forests, shelters the Knysna turaco, a green bird with red wings, and a few secretive elephants.
