– Worldwidediner | Tripadvisor
This ferry is my new commute to work in the city 3 days a week. I am so impressed with the service, great staff, perfectly clean, always on time and this morning after commencing departure it went back in to let a passenger running late on board. Well done PPF!!
– Liz B. | Facebook
Have used the ferry several times now a love it. What a way to start the day leaving Portarlington with the sun rising across the water. Talked to some of the work commuters who can get a lot of work done while traveling. It's not crowded like the trains. Crew are always happy and helpful.
