One passenger returning from this Murray Princess cruise tells of a feeling of being in touch with the river, the land and its creatures. This was definitely due to the calming of the Paddle Steamer as the P.S. Murray Princess snaked her way along the river. It gave us a wonderful feeling of a bygone era.

My wife and I went on this fantastic cruise for 7 days. I can say it was the best holiday we have ever had. From the captain to the deckhands everyone was of very high standards. The most friendly waitresses who were always smiling and had time for a quick chat even though they were pretty flat out serving.The meals were excellent, the rooms although small were comfortable, they were made everyday and clean linen supplied. We had great excursions off the boat as well. the captain took the time to talk to everyone and he had an excellent knowledge on birds and fish. Music and dancing after diner

The environment is iconic but, if you are looking for refined inobtrusive service, then look elsewhere. An obsession with clearing tables was nauseating and detracted from relaxed dining experiences.

We have just come back today from our holiday. First of all thank you for the wonderful time we had on the 3 day Cruise. We just loved it. We got upgraded, which was a wonderful surprise and treat. A relaxing time to not even have to think what to have for meals for a few days. You never felt you were moving until you looked out the window. It was wonderful. Loved every minute of it. The four day trip would have been great, but we had to move on and see other parts of S.A before heading to Melbourne to catch up with family.
The Cabin was great
The Food was great
The service was great

Dear Mel
We really enjoyed our three days on the Murray River. The crew were exceptional and really couldn't do enough for you. The meals were lovely and the catering staff also were very pleasant and nothing was a trouble to them.
The Murray is truly a beautiful river to travel along and the onshore excursions were really good and informative. The barbecue night was great as was the entertainment.
The crew had good knowledge of the river and its surrounds which added another dimension to the trip. Not only was it relaxing & enjoyable it was also informative and helped you gain a better understanding
