World Heritage Cruises

I would highly recommend this cruise up the Gordon river! We started the day going out to the heads at Macquarie Harbour, and the commentary was very good and detailed. We then headed off to Sarah island, where Shannon gave a detailed history of the brutal treatments and buildings of the old prison colony. We had a delicious, healthy lunch sitting outside in the lovely winter sun, and journeyed about 11 km up the Gordon River. Our day was sunny, so sitting outside was just wonderful. The whole trip took 6 hours and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering taking the cruise. It was mostly accessible, with just one section that would need to ‘go around’ on the boardwalk where there are otherwise a few steps to negotiate.

Incredible experience on the World Heritage cruise boat yesterday! We scored a sunny day with spectacular views of the Gordon River and informative tours on Sarah Island and in the forest. The crew were fantastic, I took my 8 month old on board and she had a wonderful time, including her own little prepared lunch, a spot to crawl around away from other travelers and she slept like a dream on board. Very much recommend if you’re heading out to west tassie!

What an experience today, from meeting the pleasant staff to flying across a silky smooth bay to viewing the World Heritage Gordon River. What a day! I was highly impressed with the boat, clean, great bathrooms, wide doorways, comfy seats and fantastic views out the huge windows. Not only that the lunch was excellent, fresh food, good quality and a good portion size. Well done!

A must do cruise when visiting Strahan Captain Andy and his fantastic team provide a fantastic day of sightseeing and local history Cruising up the beautiful Gordon River. A visit to Sarah Island. An encounter with the local pod of dolphins. The day on-board had it all Fantastic lunch onboard if you opt to go up on the top deck Don't leave Strahan without going out with the team from WHC

A Fantastic full day experience World Heritage Cruises. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff gave great talks at both Sarah Island and at Gordon River. New and very comfortable boat smooth even going through Hells Gates. Lunch was also delicious. Must do if you are in Strahan.

What a fabulous experience! The boat was awesome So clean and well appointed Staff were amazing Tour guides were excellent This is an absolute must do ! Totally recommend

Loved it. Can't believe we got to go out to the Southern Ocean. April visit, and you needed the layers. Chilly! Great team that are very informative. So much beauty, we are very glad for the Franklin and Gordon rivers being saved and now heritage listed. Must do in Tassie

Great time. Tour was fantastic, especially Sarah Island, which I'm ashamed to say I never heard of. Guide was entertaining and informative. Lunch was great. Got to go through Hells Gate as weather was good. You don't get to go up river as far as I thought, but wasn't much time to anyway with everything else. Boat was modern and comfortable, only negative is that the on board commentary is rather loud.
