Great value and cruise - This must be one of the best value river cruises that I have taken. The cruise itself went for about 4.5 hours. The commentary during the cruise was informative. The cruise left on time. Once we were underway morning tea was served. About half hour later a cheese & meat plater. An hour later lunch which was a serve yourself and included prawns, meats and salads. An abundance of all. The boat had 2 levels. Downstairs had windows while the uper deck was open. Food was accessable from both. A drink (beer, wine etc) was also included in the ticket. There is a car park about a 5 minute walk from the jetty. The staff were helpful and a friendly lot.

We would recommend this trip. Especially good for adults of all ages - We had a lovely day. The food was really above expectations. The staff were very informative about the local areas that we travelled through. Dolphins were in abundance and very close to our boat. All in a all it was worth every penny

Amazing lunch cruise. - We had an amazing time with Mandurah cruises on a perfect sunny day for the Murray River Lunch Cruise. Congratulations to the crew for a memorable experience. Catering was top notch with plenty of choices and excellent quality. After meandering up the Murray and back, we were delighted to see some amazing dolphins on the return journey. Well done everyone, we will definitely be back.

Fabulous Murray River Lunch Cruise - This is the second time we have taken visitors on this cruise, it provides a lovely view of the beautiful waterways around Mandurah and the morning tea and lunch are always fabulous. The crew are hospitable, knowledgeable and friendly and go out of their way to host you on this enjoyable cruise. It is not a dolphin cruise but we have had dolphins swim along side the boat on both occasions.

Fine, not great but not awful - It was fine. A lot of time in open water and less time up the river. The food was good and the staff great. Coffee was rubbish and that's putting it mildly. Seemed to attract an older customer range on the lunch cruise so relatively subdued.
