Monday to Friday, departures are at 08:00, 09:30, 11:00, 12:30, 14:00 and the 16:30 Sunset Cruise — the last cruise of the weekday, back at 17:30.

Yes — choose Private event on the booking page. A private event reserves the entire yacht for 1, 2, 3 or 4 hours and can include an occasion, special requests and add-ons. It is priced for the whole yacht, never per person: R12 000 for 1 hour, R24 000 for 2 hours, R36 000 for 3 hours and R48 000 for 4 hours. The yacht must be completely free of other bookings for the whole of your event, and once your event is confirmed nobody else can book seats during it.
No. Online bookings use the fixed start and end times shown for each package. Contact the team for a custom event request.
The Versace Yacht can accommodate up to 67 guests, subject to the confirmed charter arrangement.
Skipper, crew and safety equipment are included on every cruise, along with soft beverages, ice and chilled bottled water. For private events, catering, décor, bar service and entertainment can be arranged with our events team.
Shared one-hour cruises are priced per seat: R225 per adult, R150 per child and R180 per pensioner (children are guests under 16; 16 and older pay the adult price, or the pensioner price for a pensioner). Prices are flat per cruise session — your total is simply adults × R225 + children × R150 + pensioners × R180, never multiplied by the number of hours. Private events reserve the whole yacht at R12 000 an hour — R12 000 for 1 hour, R24 000 for 2 hours, R36 000 for 3 hours and R48 000 for 4 hours — whatever the number of guests.
Pay by ABSA EFT using your booking reference as the payment reference. For shared cruises, where the booking page offers it, you can instead choose Pay in store and pay in cash or by card at the counter at Wilson's Wharf before your cruise. There is no online card payment. Your QR tickets are released once your payment is verified or paid at the counter.
Tickets are issued once your payment is verified. Each guest receives their own QR ticket — if you book 10 guests, your PDF contains 10 guest tickets. Every guest must present their own QR code at boarding.
No — guest names are optional. You only choose how many adults and children are cruising. Named guests are printed on their tickets; unnamed seats are labelled automatically (Adult 1, Child 1…) and every seat still gets its own unique QR ticket.
Open the booking page, choose your date and one of that day's one-hour cruise times, set your adult and child numbers (guest names are optional), and follow the steps. Online cruise selections require at least 24 hours' notice.
Yes. School trips are priced per person — R70 per teacher and R60 per learner — and are booked with our team by phone, WhatsApp or email, not on the online booking page. See school trips for how to book.
