What a fantastic way to end our holiday. Picked up from our accommodation and dropped off. Ryan and his staff are so friendly. Answer any questions and help in anyway. A must to sit in the boom net and get pulled behind the boat.Great nibbles and plenty of choice or refreshments. The most relaxing way to see the sunset at... More

We thought the whole experience was well done. From pick up at front of accommodation to drop off. Lovely boat with its own history, staff very friendly and helpful. Evening sunset cruise in Broome another must do. More

Don't miss out on the sunset cruise on Intombi! Fantastic old pearl lugger originally built 1903 and has been fully restored in all its splendour. Spend your cruise climbing the rigging mast, jumping on the pull rope or in the boom net, or simply sit back and relax with a glass of bubbles (its fully licensed with a great range... More

We went on this cruise last night and thought it absolutely amazing. We have been on many such cruises in Australia and overseas and this is our best ever. Service was amazing and friendliness just terrific. The old lugger was immaculate and you could see that a lot of time and effect had been put into restoring it. I don't... More

Prior to our first trip to Broome I explored the internet for the best things to do in Broome and was excited at the prospect of sailing the Indian Ocean on Intombi. Little did I know the disappointment that would follow. We had initially booked to sail on a Thursday and were informed through the visitors information centre on Wednesday... More

This cruise was definately the highlight of our trip to Broome. We were celebrating my husband's 50th birthday and it was the perfect way to do just that. We were picked up from our hotel in a bus and driven right down onto the beach were Intombi was waiting for us all. But on the way while picking up fellow... More

We enjoyed a very pleasant lazy Sunday afternoon / sunset cruise along the coast on the beautifully restored lugger. Reasonably pricey for a 3 hour cruise but a nice experience. Ryan, the owner/skipper and his young crew, were all very friendly and hospitable. We had drinks and plenty of nibblies on board. The price of the drinks is additional to... More
