      Fantastic morning. Great views and great fun. The instructors were easy going but safety conscious and made the whole experience great fun. I would definitely recommend this trip.

      Recommend!
      Wonderful time! I had Justin as my captain and he was fantastic. The boat ride was smooth, the sights were excellent. Justin had me try a couple of different types of oysters from the bay/lagoon and I drank some nice white wine to go with it. Justin is from the area and I feel like he told me so much about the town, the history, and the people that I might not have learned otherwise. Had some good laughs too. Classy guy, great cruise. Highly recommend!

      Fantastic experience on arrival the staff were welcoming and friendly then our guides Keon and Bjorn were great very informative of the area and full of facts and very chatty so big shout out to them the actual quads 300cc which were more than quick enough even for the experienced riders its not the generic quad experience where you do a loop this was a nice long trail with some technical aspects very fun very well priced what are you reading this for go book it

      Knysna Charters- great experience
      Joined Knysna charters for a relaxing boat trip lead by Justin. He was extremely informative about the Estuary and my family and I left with a lot of new information! It was educational, comfortable, peaceful and entertaining. Highly recommend 👏

      Quad Bike Fun!
      Was an amazing experience! Very well organised. Friendly, helpful guides giving us information about restaurants and activities in the area. I would highly recommend this activity for some outdoor fun, lots of dust and stunning views.

      Disappointing
      The guys at the Knysna Charters are racist. On our visit there, there were a couple of people waiting to go on the tours, some like us were going on the oyster tour and some just the normal tour, when the time came for our skipper to take us to the boat, instead of separating us by the type of tour we chose they separated us based on race. So one boat was only blacks and the other boat was only whites.

      Invigorating fun
      What an awesome experience!!! DUSTY but invigorating. Beautiful views. The quad bikes are 300 cc. Sturdy and fast. The tour guides are friendly and helpful. They recorded a nice video of the group passing around a bend giving a nice shot of each individual. 10/10.

      The best way to explore the forest
      We took our 8 year old son for a quad bike tour through the forest and it was so much fun. It was my first time on a quad bike as well as my son’s. He sat with my husband on his bike and had the best time. The guides were super friendly and accommodating. Can definitely recommend this activity. It was the highlight of our holiday. Well worth the price. Some advice: don’t wear light colours and take some wet wipes with you - you’re going to come back covered in dust!

      Poorly designed cruise
      They somehow made it boring. The 90-minute cruise out to the Heads would normally take 30 minutes at a normal speed. Instead of spending the remaining hour cruising around the lagoon, the boat just goes VERY, VERY SLOWLY out and back. You mostly see the hotels along the shore.

      Pleasant experience
      What a pleasant experience, beautiful sunset and the skipper, Simon was very kind and skillful. Due to bad weather, we were upgraded to a bigger boat and appreciated it tremendously.

    A fun experience to explore a different side of Knysna - kayaking! We booked for an hour and it was the perfect amount of time to leisurely kayak around through the lagoon. If you're looking for an outdoor activity, that's not too strenuous, this is it. We even had some time to stop over for some pics 🤪

    Very friendly staff, had a lovely paddle around the Thesen island canals. My husband didn’t want to swim so he could accompany in the canoe.
