Tip Top III MOTOR BOAT

The Tip Top III offers the same reliable service and experience as its sister the ship the Tip Top II – a good, solid cruise choice.

The Tip Top III runs an interesting alternating itinerary - one week to the north/west islands, one week covering the south and central area. These itineraries can also be combined into a comprehensive 15 day trip!

“I thoroughly enjoyed my trip aboard the Tip Top III – it is a very smoothly run operation that I cannot fault in any way.” (Kyle Gibbs, Australia)
