Very nice crew, very nice experience aswel. Everything was perfect organised
Hi Jason, Thank you for your 5 star review! Matador Whitsundays
Awesome experience, I will remember my whole life!!
Very bad weather, which was not at all conducive to going out to sea, especially for two days and one night. The program was not respected, with no explanation of where we were going. The skipper spoke very badly and showed no respect for customers or colleagues. Very old boat
Absolutely loved it. The crew and the whole tour was nice and I would defined recommend it :).

Literally THE BEST TRIP I had in Australia!
It was just awesome! Everything was perfect. The captain was a true badass pirate, very humorous, but still concerned to keep everything safe and easy. Same goes for the rest of the crew. They really had fun by giving us the best experience and integrating everyone into the group. It was pretty enviromental friendly as the crew tried to sail as much as possible and you could help with the sailing stuff if you wanted. Also the ship was very still and no one got sea sick I think. If you mention it in your booking the crew prepares delicious vegetarian or vegan options as well (also if you are the only one :). In the early morning after a stunning sunrise with good music you got to see the Whitehaven Beach before all the big tourist groups arrive, which is almost essential. Apart from that you can see a lot of fish, reefs, beaches, sea birds and maybe even some whales and just have a awesome time on the boat. Also the ship is not a luxury yacht, but a well maintained, clean sailing boat. The sleeping places are basic, but after a long day you should sleep well in it. All in all it was indeed the best trip I had on the whole east coast. It was just really amazing. Thank you very much and please keep all your good crews with a fine salary!
