Traveler reviews
Yarra Cruise
Half hour up, half hour back. Weather was great. Don't need to do it again. Not crowded, so moving around was ideal. Daughter almost fell asleep.
Autumn on the river.
It was a stunning autumn Melbourne day. The boat trip was relaxing and informative. The seats were a bit close to each other and a very limited bar service. We were surprised by the extent of the port as we headed towards west gate bridge. Melbournes creative architecture was proudly on display. Well worth it.
Would highly recommend this tour
We had a wonderful time on this tour. We got to see a herd of kangaroos and a few koalas in the wild. The 12 Apostles and the temperate rainforest with its ancient fern trees were highlights. Our driver/ guide was excellent.
Ok Tour To See Some of the City
We had some time to kill and wanted to do a tour. The tour was interesting and lasts about 60 minutes. Crew was friendly and they had beverages available for sale and rest rooms. A recording played over the loud speakers to tell about things on either side of the boat.
Not wheelchair accessible
Cruise described as wheelchair accessible, it wasn't, we had to leave our wheelchair behind, no ramp and steps onto boat and down onto viewing area. Of course we had same problems getting off the boat. Do not falsely advertise something that clearly could not be provided!
