We went on the 21st of December, 2023. It was a gift from my partner’s parents for his birthday 2 months prior. We had such a good time. The four course meal was delicious and generous, plus the service was amazing - especially the Italian host / server who looked after us and checked in on us all night. He was so kind and attentive, which really made the experience feel extra special for us, to the point that my partner even gave him a tip at the end. Watching the sunset and the night views were beautiful as well. I would highly recommend booking this experience for a special occasion.

Nice little cruise up the river. Loved the music - caters to all ages. The voice over giving information of the sights was good. Not overly enthralling but some spectacular views of the city! Maybe do the docklands cruise instead, there's only so much nature you can appreciate in one trip.

The Melbourne river cruises is a great way to explore the city in the boat. It takes about 2 hour round trip and that is if you do not get off at the stops. Highly recommend if you want to see the city in a short time and the boat also tells you information on the city as you go along the river.

I had an unforgettable experience on this cruise, offering the perfect combination of gastronomic indulgence and panoramic views of Melbourne along the Yarra River. The food was delicious, and the service impeccable. I would definitely repeat this experience and encourage more people to discover this amazing plan that no one should miss out on.

Great way to see an alternative view of Melbourne - through the waterways within the city. Crew were pleasant, facilities were clean, and the weather blessed us with a gorgeous sunset to end the cruise. Tip : sit on the outdoor deck for an immersive experience of winds in your hair and sun setting as you sail. Do bring a light jacket as it can get a wee bit chilly!
