Overall a good experience- weather was nice today, caption was funny and welcoming. Trip started late and had to wait. Pre recorded explanation could have been a little more than just turning right and left to understand what's been spoken. May be custom headsets with a visual View will be helpful. Someone who would Want to stand outside and take pics can't listen to recorded explanation as it's not audible outside the seating area. Tea/ coffee was good addition. Time of the ride was more than enough to soak in the beauty of yaara river and all that follow along the way.

Great combo pass with the river cruise and aquarium. Much cheaper than booking separately. A great time at both experiences. River cruise in the morning was lovely, nice view of parks and garden and complimentary tea or coffee. Aquarium in the afternoon was great. We arrived a little early and were made very welcome. Cafe was lovely, highly recommend the chips. Highlights include shark tank, 4d cinema an penguins.

Nice and relaxing, some of the commentary sound effects are not necessary but overall it was great to hear the history of the Yarra river and the port
    • Save on Melbourne's best views: from 300m high atop the Melbourne Skydeck while leisurely cruising the Yarra River for 1-2 hours.

    • Get to the highest observation deck in the southern hemisphere. Do it in style, by riding the fastest elevator in the southern hemisphere.

    • Enjoy stunning 360°views of Melbourne spotting iconic landmarks. Spot them again as you sail the Yarra River for 1 or 2 hours (you choose).

    • Say hello to Herring Island, Federation Square, Royal Botanic Gardens, etc. Opt to greet major ports and docklands as well by upgrading your tour.

    • Fun fact: Ancient Chinese rever 88 as an auspicious number. The Skydeck sits on the 88th floor, wishing happiness and luck to everyone visiting!

    Does what it says on the can. Pleasant way to see parts of the city. Commentary is good and the crew were very helpful answering questions.
  • Right up in the skies: Melbourne Skydeck

    Zoom right up in the world's fastest elevators, soaking in just how stunning the Eureka Tower is. Step out on the 88th floor, 300m high above the ground, leaving any worry behind. Your eyes (and camera) are in for a treat – Melbourne is spectacular from the skies.

    Enjoy uninterrupted views of the MCG, Federation Square, Dandenong Ranges, and other beautiful landmarks. Use the viewfinders to make sure you miss none of it. Feeling adventurous? Head to the Edge to see what it's like to be projecting out of a skyscraper, check out the Voyager Theatre, or wobble above the city on a VR plank experience.

    A cruise to remember feat Yarra River

    You'll see why rivers have songs written about them, as you sail the Yarra River on a comfortable ship. If you select the 1-hour cruise, you'll enjoy stunning views of the Federation Square, Government House, Royal Botanic Gardens, world-famous sporting arenas including the Melbourne Cricket Ground, and more.

    Sadly, you'll not be waving hi to Polly Woodside – a 19th-century sailing ship, the Bolte Bridge and Westgate Bridge, or the shipping channels, dock area, etc. But with the 2-hour cruise, you'll get to see all these cool spots and more, as you go upstream and downstream.
