    I had the most wonderful experience on this cruise, and it couldn’t have come at a more meaningful time. It was the very last day of my sister’s holiday in Australia, and we wanted something special to wrap up her visit. This cruise ended up being absolutely perfect. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and unforgettable experience—especially if you want to create a special memory with someone you love.

    The river was blissfully smooth and peaceful, I did find the commentary didn't always match where we were which was challenging to follow but otherwise it was a nice trip.
