Tour Description
There’s no better way to see the Murray River and a slice of the hauntingly beautiful and dramatic Australian outback, its unique flora and fauna, and the rich legacy of old riverside ports and indigenous culture close up than to drift unhurried and quietly under the power of the paddle-wheeler PS Murray Princess.
Captain Cook Cruises offers a unique historic and nature-based adventure, through some of the driest parts of the driest continent, past mallee scrub and ancient red gum forests, through towering gorges and ochre-coloured limestone cliffs.
This cruise takes you north on the great Murray River from the historic river port of Mannum to Swan Reach. Experience the magic and majesty of the spectacular scenery, from towering cliffs to expansive wetlands. Along the way you’ll see a great variety of Australian wildlife, including kangaroos and many of about 350 bird species that inhabit the river lands. Highlights include a visit to a vineyard and wine-tasting at the cellar door, visit a typical Australian farm, woolshed & wildlife shelter, enjoy an Aussie barbecue beside the river and an aboriginal archaeological site.
You can also choose to extend your cruise with an optional full day tour of Australia’s richest and best known wine making regions - the Barossa Valley.
