We took a morning cruise. The captain was friendly and funny, the river was calm, and we could learn a lot about Launceston.

Our guide Huon was FANTASTIC...perhaps due to there only being 4 of us. We learnt ALOT about the history of the area and modern Launceston. We also came away with ideas of further places of interest to visit. Really appreciated all this on such a gloomy morning weather wise.
