Reviews for Melbourne River Cruises

Unfortunately, our trip on this cruise was spoilt by rain. A group of us had pre planned & paid deposits, so could only hope the day would be sunny. Definitely not a day for sightseeing or taking photos with window closed and foggy, and reliant on where there were gaps of opening for air circulation…. So, my recommendation is avoid committing to this cruise but go on a sunny day in hope of availability. The commentary was good. Had the weather gone our way, I’m sure with the boat set up as was, it would have been a great relaxing cruise with lots of opportunities for photos. For us, it was having to accept that it was an experience in which we couldn’t enjoy all that was on offer and all of us soaked in getting there so somewhat uncomfortable. Paying another $37 to do again not an option.

1-hr boat tour of Yarra river. Pete was the commentator on the boat with good explanations. The captain took the mike on the way back to drop off point. I didn’t hear anything he said! They need to turn the volume up while the captain is speaking or ask him to speak louder. Otherwise I enjoyed the ride while sipping my free coffee/tea onboard.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Wonderful Experience – Highly Recommended! During my visit to Melbourne, I had the pleasure of joining Yarra River Cruise, and it was truly a memorable experience from start to finish. Captain Peter and Captain Tom were exceptional — incredibly kind, friendly, gentle, and professional. They made the cruise feel safe, relaxed, and enjoyable, while sharing their warmth and positive energy throughout the journey. A very special mention goes to Rose, the amazing coordinator. She welcomed us with the most generous and beautiful smile, always cheerful, attentive, and genuinely caring. True to her name, she is lovely like a rose 🌹 — her kindness and constant smile added so much joy to the experience. I spent a truly wonderful and relaxing time on this cruise. Everything was perfectly organized, the atmosphere was warm and friendly, and the entire team made us feel welcome and valued. I absolutely loved it and highly recommend Yarra River Cruise to anyone visiting Melbourne. An amazing experience that I will always remember!

Very informative cruise along the Yarra River. Thanks for all the information regarding the districts, bridges and buildings alongside the river. We highly recommend sitting inside to listen to the commentary. Free water, coffee and tea included.

Captain Lex and peter were marvellous. Peter’s commentary was brilliant, fun and factual. We went downstream and loved going under all the bridges, including the Bolte Bridge.
