lakeland queen
we were very lucky to have perfect weather on the day to celebrate my daughter's 30th birthday, the host on the day was fantastic, he even allowed my 3 y.o. grandson to steer the vessel, the food was delicious, no indigestion afterwards,the waiters were very attentive and the commentory was very interesting, my only negative is that we would have preferred the 2 hour cruise which isn't available at this time of the year,I would definitely recommend this cruise and hope to do it again some day, such great value for the money and heaps of friendly staff on board to help the enjoyment of the cruise. thankyou very much, my daughter has a lovely memory for her 30th birthday.

Okay
Was okay. Expected better food especially for what you're paying for. Just wasn't what we were expecting. But great friendly staff.

Stranded on the lake !!
We were looking forward to this lunch cruise...got 20 mins out on lake and the boat broke down... we were stranded! We had to get to a wedding..so the captain got a speed boat that was in the middle of a paraglide ride, to come and rescue us !...Some of the passengers and the captain ( he had to go get a part for the boat )so we jumped onto the speed boat leaving the others behind !... We were really looking forward to this lake cruise...it was a shame.. but the frantic captain was very nice and funny about the situation !
