Duffy Down Under Electric Boat Cruises & Tours

We had amazing experience. It was great to see Gold coast and Broadwater this way. We were very lucky that Duffy’s owner came along with us on our boat ride. It was good to have her as we got to know so much about the areas and saw beautiful houses along the way with some information. It felt like a wonderful tour. She also took a lot of photos for us and stopped the boat for amazing views and pictures of gold coast. She was just there to guide us and we all took turns to drive the boat, having her was an added advantage . The boat ride itself was super fun. They also have speakers so you can play your own music and dance, bring snacks and just generally have a great time. We went there in the afternoon but heard they also have sunset time boats as well.

My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting the irrepressible Nitsa when she gave a very thorough explanation about the workings of the battery powered boat we had hired. Nitsa gave us maps of the canals, photos of marker buoys and a recommended route to take to see the most in our two hour cruise. The two hours went by incredibly fast as there was so much to see from the comfort of the silent running boat. The boat was easy to drive and had plenty of shade. Gayle and I thoroughly enjoyed our cruise, so much so, that I will be placing it on my "to do list" for my next visit to the Gold Coast.

Excellent day on the water! The Duffy boat was so comfy and relaxing! We toured the waterways for a couple of hours, seeing the gorgeous homes and learning the history and all of the stories of the area. The owners, Nita’s and Gordon, were so friendly! We enjoyed being out of the sun under the cute awning over the boat. The boats are silent and make no wake, cruising along smoothly! Can’t wait to do it again!

I've been meaning to write this review for ages. We took my parents-in-law on a boat trip around the Gold Coast canals, back in May 2022. We had such a lovely time on board. The GC skyline and the lights around the city as we cruised around during sunset were simply beautiful and we were able to enjoy them from an angle and view that few ever get to experience. Our boat captain was incredibly professional, friendly, and helpful. He took us to so many little nooks and crannies along the canals and we felt absolutely safe in his hands. He also regaled us with tales of various places around the canals, as well as stories from his own life. We were able to bring a dinner for us on board, which we dined on comfortably whilst being chauffeured up and down the canals in style. I would absolutely recommend Duffy Down Under to anyone who is interested in a similar experience, and cannot commend their service and professionalism highly enough. Thank you again for treating our folks to such a memorable experience.
