Travel through rolling hills and Mallee outback to the mighty Murray River bringing watered life to a thirsty land - a land now rich in green vineyards, golden citrus orchards and prosperous rural communities.

Mannum - the birthplace of the River Murray Paddlesteamers. Mannum - the Murray River gateway to the harsh empty inland of Australia, still reeking with our historic past - the bawdy days of the riverboat men toiling up river in the blazing sun.

Highlights Include:

  • Travel through Verdun and the undulating green Adelaide Hills
  • The mill town of Bridgewater
  • Arid pasture region of the Murraylands
  • Mannum - birthplace of the River Murray Paddlesteamers
  • Cruise the wide waters of the River Murray on a genuine Riverboat
  • Enjoy a delightful morning tea of scones, jam and cream with tea or coffee on board
  • Stark cliffs and River Red Gums
  • Willows that burden the waters of the Mighty Murray
  • Look for Galahs, Cockatoos and Pelicans
  • Enjoy lunch at Mannum and sample local hospitality
  • An opportunity to board the fully restored, 100 year old, PS Marion Paddlesteamer
  • Take in the view over Mannum and the Murray from a scenic lookout
  • Follow the Torrens River through the Onkaparinga Valley to Gumeracha
  • Torrens Valley olive groves and grape growing
  • Skirt the Chain of Ponds Reservoir and travel through Tea Tree Gully
