Finest boats and unforgettable experiences. Epic Party Boat in Perth!
The crew at pelican charters are great. We did a mothers day lunch on the Swan river. They were so friendly and accommodating. The boat was very clean and they cook your food up on the barbecue. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks for the great day out guys.
We hired out the Live Wire for a birthday celebration on Friday night. We could not fault one thing it was a prefect night. The staff were amazing; super friendly and helpful. The photos didn't even do the boat justice it was huge, very clean and everyone was comfortable. I have been on a few boat cruises and i can say now i would not go anywhere else. Thank you Brandon and your team we hope to see you again very soon.
Epic boat, great friendly and welcoming staff, no hassles at all with us having our own dj with loud music. Cannot rate high enough!
Great crew onboard who ensure the day goes smoothly. Always a lot of fun!
Pelican cruise was amazing highly recommend hiring out, service is amazing, going to keep hiring loved every minute thank you so much
Hosted a 30th birthday party out on the Swan River with Pelican Charters in January and it was a fantastic experience! The crew and admin staff were friendly and really organised. It was great not to worry about organising cooking the barbecue too! The crew even ensured we were positioned in front of Elizabeth Quay when the cake candles were blown out for a fireworks display that was a huge surprise and delight for our guests. Thanks heaps! :)
Great boat and great crew!
We had an awesome Xmas party on board the Pelican and highly recommend Pelican charters to one and all. Peter (the Skipper) and Jaxon (deckhand) did a great job looking after us and we look forward to getting back out on the water in the near future. Merry Xmas!
We had our work Christmas party with Pelican Charters and do not regret it one bit! From the date of enquiry, to the service on the day, they were amazing to deal with. Everyone was extremely helpful and the crew members on board were friendly. We highly recommend Pelican and would happily use them again!!
Our experience with Pelican Charters was exceptional! From the very first phone call, and email it was clear that this was a company that was all about excellent service and delivering a great experience with ease and professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble for the crew assisting us with the alcohol and food delivery, allowing us to decorate the boat so that it was personalised for our company and right down to cooking the BBQ perfectly. We had 40 very happy guests aboard the Live wire and set off for Carnac Island for the day, it was smooth sailing from start to finish. Thank you, very grateful and appreciative.
Had an incredible day on the Live Wire celebrating a birthday. Heaps of space for guests to spread out with enough eskies and fridges provided to store drinks and food for 55 people. Crew were excellent, sorting out all the cooking and blowing up the Inflatables for floating around. Really friendly, laid back guys that made the day great. Took us to a beautiful spot off Carnac. Would definitely recommend booking.
