Late in the morning on a glorious Melbourne day, my husband and I did the port and Docklands then the Scenic River Gardens trips. We both had an awesome trip enjoying not only the scenery but the friendliness and knowledge of both the crew on the boat. We are coming back with family later in the year and yes, you've guessed it, one of the first things we will be doing is taking them on your cruise. A trip up the Yarra with you is an absolute must for any visitor to Melbourne.

This was a gift for my parents. They are still overseas visiting Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. They have rung me to say it was fantastic.

Good scenery. One of the best ways to see Melbourne city.

Trip was great but girls in booking office overbooked voyage. This lead to some confusion.

We had wonderful weather, so we saw Melbourne at its best.

It was very nice sitting on the boat cruising up the river, but the sights you see on that route are not particularly interesting. The return trip had no comments at all. I also thought that it was an hour and half cruise, and we had not quite an hour. I think it could be made more interesting but not sure how - perhaps a different route if possible, like the other way around.

Slightly disappointed maybe would've been better to go in the opposite direction as there wasn't really much up the river to Herring Island. It was a nice relaxing boat ride though. The constant bitchy commentary from the tour guide/driver regarding the sculptures on the island were boring and churlish.

The cruise was was OK but lacked content. That's not the driver's fault, though; he was very knowledgeable.

If it was a sight seeing tour it could have been better on the south bank side. Seeing the three bridges was nice, but nothing to great about it.
