Testimonials
We absolutely loved our Australia Day lunch cruise with Vagabond! Three and half hour cruise with a full buffet lunch was delicious and fantastic value. Staff were friendly and helpful. Will certainly be back again!
Couldn't think of a better way to see the Australia Day harbour events than on an Aussie timber classic like the Vagabond Princess. Enjoyed the sights, the commentary and all the great food. Big thanks to all the crew on board!
