This is the “must “, the only one thing that one must do in Melbourne! As the trip is amazing! Wonderful! Great! But I can’t say the same things about “ the cruise 🚢 “. It’s old, not so comfortable, a very small place outside for people that want to see the beautiful views of the city, many seats inside- but if you stay inside, why are doing this trip? I recommend to change the boats!

Taking cruises sightseeing on the river is a popular tourist activity in many cities. There are also many such projects on the Yarra River in Melbourne. It feels great to patrol the scenery along the wide river on both sides.

What a fantastic way to see some of the sights in Melbourne, the cruise was so much fun! Staff are friendly, hospitable, complimentary refreshments onboard and a nice little bar add to the whole experience. The views of the whole city in summer were great and the information on each spot were fun as well! Be advised, go to back of the boat as indoors you won’t see that much. So step out, enjoy beautiful Melbourne and support local businesses😊
