Pleasant cruising - Great commentary and the staff were excellent. We enjoyed learning more about the history of the region. There was plenty of food with morning tea and a selection of rolls for lunch and a local wine and beer tasting. A very pleasant trip.

Lots of commentary - restricted areas for talking. - A nice cruise if you wish to hear 3+ hrs of commentary up the river and back. Not ideal for groups catching up and talking while enjoying the cruise, unless you are prepared to stay in the lower deck with limited views and airflow. Ideally the skipper should have noise cancelling air plugs or a closed off area so the top deck is available to enjoy the view as well as socialise without feeling uncomfortable. Morning tea and lunch was very good.

Relaxing, informative. - Cataract Gorge and information regarding river wildlife. One regret is that the exterior seating at the rear of the boat has been done away with. When I did this river trip March 2023, the seating was there. It was a wonderful experience to sit there at times during the trip. I recommend that you restore this seating!

Not worth the money! - The guide was quite knowledgeable, the cruise was boring and they over sold the food. It was a few muffins and fruit cake followed by focaccias and a bit of cheese, you also had to pay for alcohol . Definitely not worth $150 pp
