The trip goes beyond the Waterfront area and out into the open sea, so if the weather is windy or rainy or cloudy over Table Mountain (as it was for us) be prepared for a bumpy blustery hour!! The staff on board were great, very friendly, upbeat and welcoming. But we ended up going out of the harbour and then up the shoreline only a short distance before the captain turned back, so we didn’t see anything other than a bit of the shipyard from the sea during the hour. Captain can’t do anything about the weather though, so this isn’t a criticism of the trip, just a caution so know what to expect if weather isn’t great! Note drinks are not included, all chargeable.

Very smooth & beautiful scenery cruise with very polite, friendly and helpful staff . The staff were offering assistance to everyone who needed to take videos & photos on board for memories
Splendid and fun. We practically had the catamaran to ourselves. Weather was beautiful. Saw sea lions, seals and a blue crane. Best way to end off a trip to Capetown.
The tour was an excellent way to see the coast and waterway on Cape Town water front! Alcoholic beverages are available for purchase
Bad customer service, rude and unprofessional. I’d not, never use this guys again, bad customer service to start with, out of all.
I lost my money, lack of communication and no empathy. I couldn't get hold of the people arranging the cruise, no proper direction I lost 1800 rand
Best boat cruise, the crew was super friendly and welcoming. The boat is also really nice. Big S/O to Ase, he really is the man for the job. He made our experience really pleasant!
It was just an amazing experience, we had so much fun. I would definitely do it again and again and again
Lovely and engaging crew, music and ambience was amazing. I actually saw a couple of dolphin schools.
We really enjoyed our cruise with Waterfront Charters! The experience was amazing from start to finish, with breathtaking views of the mountains and ocean making the cruise even more memorable. The staff members were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout the experience. They even assisted us with taking photos, which we really appreciated because it allowed us to capture some beautiful memories together. We had such a great time and would highly recommend Waterfront Charters to anyone looking for a memorable boat cruise experience in Cape Town!
We had a beautiful trip around the harbor. We saw dolphins and seals. The scenery was spectacular. The captain and crew were very attentive.
We were only 4 and you guys subtracted for 8 people, you guys must refund me R1600 please. Please contact the office at the waterfront and ask them they told me that you guys subtracted for 8 people.
The cruise was amaaaazing!❤️ the staff is great and friendly everything was just so amazing we all enjoyed it
The boat and crew are wonderful, but the weather made the waves very choppy and unpleasant. Couldn’t travel bc around the entire bay.
The staff were so helpful and it was my first time taking a boat. It's really made my birthday special
The experience was great! The workers were absolutely superb and very welcoming and accommodating. The boat was super clean too. Will 100% recommend this
Such a fun day and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the dolphins. I also liked the view.
Picking up the tickets was very easy and the directions given by the company were spot on. It was then a very short walk to get to the actual boat. The staff could not be more friendly, and we absolutely recommend this catamaran ride to everyone! It’s long enough to feel like you gotten away for a while, and short enough to still have plenty of things to do once you get back. we saw dolphins playing out in the water, seals swimming around and sitting on a buoy, large ships coming and going in and out of the port, and beautiful viewpoints of the landscape and scenery that makes Cape Town famous.
Not a lot to see except a lovely view of Table Mountain. No commentary. Staff more interested in selling drinks.
Very enjoyable and exciting! The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was so relaxing. You won't regret it
EXCELLENT! The Best Cruise I have ever been on. We saw dolphins and whales and penguins and seals. It was Magical! The crew were so helpful and friendly with lots of interesting facts and lots of laughter. I Highly Recommend this Cruise!!
It's a very good experience, but they work based on what boat is available, and in our case there was no catamaran available only a normal boat, and I paid for a catamaran trip. So just be warned that you may not get the boat you were expecting.
We had a lovely time here! Highly recommended for family. The staff was extremely helpful, frirndly & full of humor. They made our experience pleasant & enjoyable! Would do it again & again!
good service and friendly staff. beverage procing fair...information and safety comms clear and understood
“Good Vibes, Great Cruise!” “Unforgettable Boat Party Experience” “Sun, Music & Endless Fun” “The Ultimate Cruise Vibe!”
Very beautiful experience with great people. The whole crew is so friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our ride 🫶🏾 the booking process was very smooth especially with the app, what a lively atmosphere at the V&A I wish we arrived 3 hours earlier and had some brunch there and take photos. I’d advise a morning or midday booking as the CT wind can be very bad especially in the late afternoon . Overall it’s a 10/10 for me shem. Location, ambiance, experience!! Just amazing
Such a great way to experience the city from a completely different angle. The coastal boat ride offered beautiful views along the shoreline, and seeing penguins, seals, and even dolphins in their natural habitat made it extra special. The staff were incredibly friendly and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something memorable and a little different!
Chill one hour cruise, great view of table mountain and coast, A nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon
Fantastic from start to finish, vessel was immaculate, crew were amazing and the journey was unforgettable.
The crew is the best ever.they made sure everyone was happy and having the best hour ever. Loved every second of that hour🤗..
Aww wow From the captain to all the crew members they are all amazing and friendly..We had fine and I and my partner really enjoyed ourselves
Great Cruise friendly staff and clean yacht. SERENITY ONE. Great sales man to. Just wish it was longer. We enjoyed it so much.
This experience for me was Spectacular and relaxed and would do it over again and again with friends.
Wow, what an amazing experience !! The staff is incredible good music & drinks! Very accommodating ! Very fun !
Awesome experience, amazing crew member, dress the path and take amazing pictures , would definitely recommend this
Our female host,I can't even remember her name,she lied and overinflated refreshments prices.When we asked to be furnished with unit prices,she kept telling us different prices for the same drink and the final amount we paid was exorbitantly high.The math did not even add up.Basically she scammed us.
I put a wrong date on the ticket and could not reverse it l tried to call them they refused to assist. Such mistakes happen but clearly they did not attempt to assist it’s more of making money for the agent
The stuff is very friendly ..such a good experience…saw the dolphins and other sea animals …HIGHLY RECOMMEND ….
Exceptional customer care by all the crew members. They paid attention to all our needs and were very courteous. It was wonderful that they made an effort to find the dolphins, and we saw many of them 😊😊🤗..
Great experience. We left on time. The crew members are kind and respectful. I would like to do it again when I'll be back in Cape Town. Strongly recommend this.
The boat has a AWESOME VIBE. Great stuff & service, they are friendly and welcoming. The barman takes beautiful pictures WOW
Depending on the weather the sea can be abit choppy going out of the bay ...don't expect the ocean to be on your side ...nevertheless less staff were very friendly and helpful and after moving out of the bay the ocean was calm and the views were spectacular
It was a lovely experience but I expected to see the sunset since it was a sunset cruise😔 I had a really good time on the cruise though and the champagne was amazing
Wonderful experience on the catamaran. Very friendly and professional staff. The trip around the coast was beautiful and we saw multiple dolphins and penguins. Highly recommend if you are visiting Cape Town.
Please go on that boat ride you won’t regret it, I love it and I will definitely be visiting again very soon💙
Personally I would say that the trip definitely did not feel like an hour because of how amazing it was. I would advice people to take sunblock on hot days.
What an amazing experience coupled with an excellent crew! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! We even got to see dolphins 🐬 ☺️
It was beautiful as it was pre sunset. Managed to see dolphins and seals for a bit. It was an overall amazing cruise.
It’s a very scenic cruise you see robben island and table Mountain View and if you lucky like us there is seals accompanying your yacht
From ticket collection to boarding to the actual trip it was a great experience. Friendly staff, very attentive, beautiful scenic views, trip was just long enough. Highly recommend.
