Up the Yarra & back again - Great informative cruise up the Yarra River, friendly staff lead by the cheerful skipper. Would be good if they had snacks onboard to buy with drinks. Overall a pleasant hour on the water.

Not sure about this one - Nice boat & pleasant crew. Was expecting some narration or information about what we were seeing but there wasn’t any so we had no idea what we were seeing, therefore feel like I missed out on the full experience. Perhaps because of this we didn’t *seem* to see anything of interest! We went in the opposite direction to the city buildings and saw a major highway and turned around. Didn’t really get it to be honest. One of the other passengers who was from Melbourne also seemed confused.

Average Experience - Boat was very old and average - leaking from every window. Got more wet inside the boat then outside. The captain was very friendly however which made the trip better. Could do with some hot chocolate or similar for kids onboard.

Waste of time and money - There was nothing breathtaking about this trip. Because the water level was high, we had to go the opposite direction from the CBD where we saw all the sports stadiums, marsh land and a park. The sound system was terrible with only one speaker at the front so we couldn’t hear the commentary with all the people on the boat talking. Sit near the captain if you want to hear. Check ahead of time before booking to ensure the boat will pass all the sights described, otherwise don’t waste your money. Thankfully it was only an hour.

Not recommended. - Not recommended. No view to see. only see contructions work on side of riverbanks. also can see some highways from the river cruise. The worst cruise i have seen . No commentary from cruise staff: its like, pay and get up the cruise then sit on a journey with nothing to see and get off in 1 hr time. Period. The worst cruise i have done.
