Can’t thank you enough for hooking us up on the trip. It is very hard in the tourism/hospitality business to be very professional but show it in such a relaxed and casual manner. These guys nailed it. The staff were exceptional from the top down. As a cruise director, Nick demonstrated his skill in ensuring that no one was made to feel left out. Very, very good at his trade and his knowledge of the area where he would change the itinerary to show us waterfalls etc that in a normal year would not be flowing. I think that this trip should be known as the eighth wonder of the world.

Alana and David from The Thirsty Travellers recently cruised the Kimberley aboard Reef Prince. You can check out their voyage log detailing their expedition on the below link.
