    Nice relaxing cruise, very informative about sights and history. It was raining so it was great that it was all enclosed. Complimentary tea, coffee & water.

  • Relaxing. Free cuppa as well.

    Very relaxing going up the Yarra river. Walked onto the casino afterwards. Saw all the lights of the bridge & buildings later. Very central position.

    Doesn't travel into Melbourne city only goes away from the city and you see only bridges and woodland

  • Lovely way to spend an hour in the city.

    Very relaxing and great commentary only spoilt by the inconsiderate chatter of a group of Asian ladies
