Fantastic experience: Andrew was fabulous and we couldn’t be happier with the service he gave us

Fantastic experience: Extremely impressed with the professionalism, knowledge and expertise of Expedition Cruise Specialists! Would highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: We were desperately trying to book a trip on The Ghan and couldn't find a suitable trip time. A good friend who had booked a Ghan and other side trips with Andrew from Expedition Cruise Specialists recommended the company to us. We usually book everything ourselves, however Andrew made the process so simple, and everything was done for a great price! They have been the perfect professionals, even forwarding refunds for cancelled tours immediately! My husband Steve and I can highly recommend Expedition Cruise Specialists, Andrew has exceeded all of our expectations!!

Positive experience: Andrew from Expedition Cruise Specialists was always extremely helpful & recommended Reef Prince which was perfect for us. The knowledge of our Tour Leader, Paul was second to none, the staff were amazing & not only looked after us & cooked for us but became our friends & a French chef was a bonus. The ship was of a high standard the very remote scenery spectacular. We would do it again.

Fantastic experience: Well organised trip on the Ghan followed by cruise on Kimberley with full attention to detail. Very professional and well informed team at all stages.

Fantastic experience: Andrew has been absolutely great. An excellent communicator and responds very quickly. We have had one problem with the itinerary which he fixed with some create thinking and he was very patient with me as I am not good on mobile phones give me a computer any day. If other employees of Expedition Cruise are half as good as him then I would highly recommend this company. This a photo of a previous holiday in Europe of Japanese ladies in an Art Gallery in Vienna. I am hoping to take lots of great photos on this holiday.

Fantastic experience: Andrew at Expedition Cruise Specialists gave me great advice and service from beginning to end! We have just returned from our fabulous Kimberley cruise from Darwin to Broome on Kimberley Expeditions’ Reef Prince and we could not have been happier with the overall experience! Terrific cruise with so many excursions and superb crew including wonderful food!! Andrew answered all my questions so that we were confident we were going to have a great time.

Fantastic experience: Andrew at Expedition Cruise Specialists could not have been more gracious and helpful in assisting us in booking our Reef Prince Kimberley cruise. The cruise was most enjoyable with extraordinary scenery, a most knowledgeable and fun cruise director, exceptional crew, and experiences we will always cherish.

Fantastic experience: Andrew was sensational, full of information, quick to reply to any questions or requests. He understood what we were looking for and matched a cruise that way exceeded our expectations. Thank you. I would highly recommend booking with Andrew at Expedition Cruise specialists.

Fantastic experience: This was a wonderful cruise. The Reef Prince is a relatively small ship which could access many of the best scenic areas in coastal Kimberley. The outboard boats then take us further into the Kimberley hinterland. The highlights of the trip were the wildlife, (incl. crocs!) and the Montgomery Reef and the horizontal falls, every vertical waterfall, the fishing, swimming in the rockpools, handling the unpredictable, the food, a beach bonfire, cave exploration and examining the ancient rock art, making new friends and the expertly delivered talks on geography, botany, wildlife and history delivered by Paul, the cruise director who also shared his wonderful photographs. With only a small number of passengers we were on first name terms with them and and all the crew. Would do it again in a heartbeat, Michael and Dominique Leyden

Fantastic experience: Very impressed with the unbelievably great service by Andrew. Very experienced, great knowledge and so helpful. He was happy to explain things thoroughly - and even suggested ways we could save money. Nothing was too much trouble for him. My husband and I travel frequently (except during covid!) and Andrew is far superior to our usual travel agent - will definitely use him, and Expedition Cruise Specialists again. Thank you

Fantastic experience: I would just like to express my appreciation of Andrew at Expedition Cruise Specialists, who patiently waited the COVID pandemic out with me and my wife. We are finally off to the Kimberleys, about two years after booking our expedition. Andrew was not only professional, efficient and helpful in the way he handled out booking and sundry items, but managed to be patient and unfailingly good-humoured through it all. Having been recommended his services by my sister, I would have no hesitation in passing his name on to any of our friends. Thanks a lot, Andrew.

Fantastic experience: absolute pleasure to deal with. given we had to defer this trip a few times Andrew could not have been more helpful. highly recommended

Fantastic experience: What A wonderful experience dealing with Andrew from Expedition Cruise Specialist. Andrew has been so helpful planning our holiday and has gone above and beyond to assist with all our inquiries. I will definitely be using this company again.

Fantastic experience: Our group of 6 recently returned from a 10 night Kimberly cruise from Darwin to Broome. We sailed on the beautifully appointed Coral Adventurer, and had the most amazing experience in what can only be described as an absolutely stunning and pristine part of the world. Before boarding the ship, we travelled from Adelaide to Darwin on The Ghan, an equally wonderful experience from the moment we boarded, until the moment we reached our destination. Andrew Castles - GM, Expedition Cruise Specialists could not have been more helpful in assisting with all our travel needs along the way. Andrew was, without exception, one of the most knowledgable, helpful, polite and accessible customer service operatives I have ever encountered. On this basis, I would strongly encourage anyone planning a small ship cruise, to contact Andrew. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: In mid pandemic times Andrew from Expedition Cruise Specialists provided our small group with guidance and assurance on the path to one of our best holidays ever.

Fantastic experience: I dealt directly with Expedition Cruise Specialists and was luck enough to be dealing with Andrew from start to finish. So obliging knowledgeable and helpful. From booking the cruise on the Geographer to return trip via the Ghan, motel accommodation and flights, nothing was too much of a bother. Home from our holiday of a life time without any hiccups. Cannot recommend Andrew and the team highly enough. Pamela King & Colin Leask

Fantastic experience: We postponed twice due to COVID. Andrew was always pleasant, responsive and willing to help. He also helped us select the cruise and boat, which turned out to be perfect for our group.

Fantastic experience: Andrew has been more than helpful. Andrew was a delight to work with. Thank you Andrew.

Fantastic experience: (Firstly, I should correct my name above, Lloyd ) We are a group of 2 couples who researched heavily before booking our holiday in the Kimberley. We found Expedition Cruise Specialists and Wow, we were so fortunate to have booked with them. If I could rate them 20 out of 10, I would. Andrew, has been amazing from woe to go. Due to the dreaded Covid, we have had to reschedule several times. We were more than a little concerned that this may be a problem, but not to Andrew, he is so competent, so reassuring, so accommodating and so communicative. Andrew put our minds at rest, totally. There has not been a single instant where we felt uncomfortable, Andrew was with us every step of the way, ensuring that we enjoyed the holiday of a lifetime. From booking the accommodation for us prior to boarding to the amazing tours before embarking, not to mention the restaurant recommendations. We cannot find the words to describe how amazing Andrew is, we will certainly be seeking Andrew's advice for our next adventure. We have told all and sundry about Andrew's skills. You will never find another travel agent like Andrew.

Fantastic experience: Many thanks to Andrew for his help in changing the cruise dates multiple times due covid border closures and other issues. Also for changing my travel insurance multiple times.

Fantastic experience: I was looking to book a cruise to the Kimberleys and was getting quite confused with all the different cruises available. Then I came across Expedition Cruise Specialist. Andrew was fantastic from start to finish. Very knowledgeable and assisted us with all details as required. Throughout COVID there were a number of issues which he guided us through. He also gave us a better deal than if we had booked direct. I can’t recommend Andrew highly enough. Book here with confidence.

Fantastic experience: Expedition Cruises, ANDREW in particular, have been fantastic to deal with. We had to cancel twice, due to Covid restrictions and there were absolutely problems changing our booking. Andrew was a delight to work with and I highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: Andrew has been fabulous with communication and assistance.

Fantastic experience: Andrew had been unbelievably helpful- he did our first itinerary in 2020. Helped us negotiate a full refund when Covid lockdown meant we couldn’t travel. Then he has been a stalwart getting it all together for us second time around! We haven’t been on the trip as yet- but have received the final itinerary so fingers crossed!

Fantastic experience: Andrew and the team at Expedition Cruise Specialists are fantastic. Always available for advice and help. Friendly and efficient with all communication making the whole booking process a breeze.

I look forward to booking future expeditions with them.
