Linda – Australia

We had an absolutely wonderful time on the Swan River lunch cruise! The weather couldn’t have been better — a sunny winter’s day that made the views along the river even more stunning. From the moment we boarded, the crew made us feel welcome and relaxed. The lunch was fresh, delicious, and generously served, with something for everyone. Sipping a glass of wine while cruising past Perth’s skyline and the beautiful riverbanks was such a treat. The pace of the cruise was perfect — enough time to soak it all in without feeling rushed. It was the ideal way to spend a winter afternoon, and we came away feeling refreshed and grateful for such a memorable experience.
