- Trail345260411841 contributionShout Out To Innocent, My Guide 💯🫡☺️ It was a true adventure, loved the track, 11km in around 45mins - 1 hour. Only R700.

- BestRegards FromFarCape Town Central, South Africa733 contributionsAn absolute must. There is no better way than taking in the natural beauty of the Knysna Heads than by sailing past them. Ocean Sailing Charters was fantastic to communicate with from the first moment of inquiry. The professional team made it a great experience and we enjoyed some bubbly and a perfectly BBQed steak on board. Definitely recommend it!!Written 10 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Sightsee624236432201 contributionThe guys at the Knysna Charters are racist. On our visit there, there were a couple of people waiting to go on the tours, some like us were going on the oyster tour and some just the normal tour, when the time came for our skipper to take us to the boat, instead of separating us by the type of tour we chose they separated us based on race. So one boat was only blacks and the other boat was only whites.Written 9 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LightPacker6728441 contributionWe had a wonderful time exploring the Knysna Lagoon with my sister and her family on the 104 year old mahogany vessel.
Definitely worth a visit when traveling to Knysna!Written 8 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The children at the Kindergarten were lovely and excited to See us. It is a nice gesture if you bring some chips or pastry but the Guide will also assist you in buying the sufficient amount and make a Good selection the kids Like. There is a Great feeling of Hope and happiness the children express , which was nice to See.
For lunch we were taken to a small restaurant , with a spectacular view owned by a trained Chef, who cooked a delicious lunch !!
We wish all the best to the Community and Hope to come back.Written 29 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Raphael our guide was great and so patient with us trying to navigate our way. We highly recommend this activity when visiting Sedgefield as we will definitely be back again.Written 3 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Amy LauraCape Town Central, South Africa94 contributionsA fun experience to explore a different side of Knysna - kayaking! We booked for an hour and it was the perfect amount of time to leisurely kayak around through the lagoon. If you're looking for an outdoor activity, that's not too strenuous, this is it. We even had some time to stop over for some pics 🤪Written 7 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
