The Staff were all great with their hospitality skills, welcoming and friendly and always ready to answer our queries. Staff took time to do a safety briefing and always had customer safety in mind. The cruise itself lasted almost an Hour and I was very impressed with the experience! Complimentary coffee, tea and water and a lovely experience where you could choose to sit outside on the deck area or inside at the tables and chairs. Great Experience! Highly Recommended.

Very quick, direct, and simple to book tickets and jump straight on. Staff were all consistently great with their hospitality skills, welcoming and friendly and always ready to answer our queries.

The boat driver had his dog on board and it was really cute, so fun to play with. The cruise allowed me to be very grateful for my city! and experience it in a way I never have before.

Enjoyable cruise, comfortable seating. Easy to book online. Friendly staff. The captain did a fabulous job providing interesting information about the landmarks along the river. There a few chairs available outside at the back. Free coffee, tea. Toilets available. Highly recommended.

The cruise is full of facilities, they got wifi, plenty of seats and cozy, charger provided, drink bar. Staff is so friendly. The direction depends on the tide which I don't mind. Staffs are so friendly. Captain is well skilled and explains the history of the location we went pass. I took the 11am on Saturday which is not too packed. Worth money

My elderly father and I spent a fabulous afternoon crusing the Yarra with the crew. The commentary was informative and amusing. The crew were helpful and friendly. The boats were very comfortable. If I'd known how much my father would have enjoyed it I would even have been able to work from the boat with free wifi and phone charging. Thanks for a fabulous memory.
