What the locals say about MV John Benn.

Ben Visagie

A very nice experience to go on water to the Heads. The boat is closed from the bad wheather , so you can choose to go out or stay in and be seated in the bar/ restaurant area. We were a grpu of 6 friends and have planned to sit down and have dinner but we didn't as the menu is very limited. But the Restaurant just off the boat was very good. But a good experience that we have enjoyed, not to be missed when you are in Knysna
