HUGE Thanks to Keon (our Captain for the afternoon) and Bjorn who made this Oyster Tour a really fun, interesting and enjoyable experience! We met at the Cafe just across from the waters edge, and once on the boat we appreciated the professional safety brief. We sailed on time and immediately felt safe as the guys expertly handled the craft out towards East Head, Knysna. They were both very friendly and informative and answered the groups' many questions about the area and the historic oyster farms. The fresh oysters (2 types) were expertly shucked by Bjorn and served with the optional seasoning of salt, pepper and 2 flavours of tabasco - absolutely delicious! The white wine (or beer if you prefer) was the perfect accompaniment and the 90 minute tour was perfectly timed. We can highly recommend this very reasonably priced event and will definitely return for another trip when next in Knysna. - Debbie
