  1. Malcolm T

    The trip was great! Lots of informative and funny commentary. We even got an upgrade to the Williamstown tour because we were very early for the Port trip.

  2. Cathleen T

    Who knew the docks of Melbourne could house such beautiful scenery and condos! Very relaxing trip and informative. Melbourne is truly a diverse community and this trip makes you appreciate that!

    Great trip. Boat skipper very funny during his commentary. My original booking was for the port and docks but due to a high tide they offered me the alternate cruise up river which I accepted. When we returned and tied up, the river level had dropped enough to allow the boat under the bridge and they offered me a free trip which I took. Once again enjoyed myself.

    i thoroughly enjoyed the hour round to Docklands even though the weather wasn’t perfect.
    The only thing that would have made the journey complete and more informative would have been if there was a running commentary of the history of the various sites and some history of the past along the waterways. There is so much that could have been said to put it in perspective.

    The tour guide was terrible, he was an embittered, who didn’t even tried to make people have a good time. The tour in general mostly focuses on the industrial part of Melbourne not in the city itself which is not interesting and relevant for most of the tourists.

    Lovely experience for my birthday – took the 3pm cruise and the weather was perfect on the deck. Thankyou!

  7. Kath_D

    I have booked two experiences through Viator and had the best experience, it’s great supporting Australian tourism

    Learning the history of the port and docklands.
    The commentary was excellent.
    T was busy so didn’t really get to see much and not a lot of photo opportunities

    The tour captain was very friendly and informative. Very interesting trip. Well run. We didn’t feel rushed at all.
    Thank you

  11. Keri_M

    Late start (30 minutes!), commentary hard to hear and only was half the trip, seats were not comfortable, the promised tea and coffee were not available, instead only warm water on a very hot day
    Pricy, disorganized

  12. Susan_L

    Great vistas but couldn’t hear the commentary properly. I wish we had been able to understand the guide. His delivery sounded too canned and was difficult to hear.

  13. Garry_P

    The Staff were Amazing !! The Captain was so funny and very knowledgeable !!
    Saw parts of Melbourne like We have never seen !!

  14. Kathryn_Z

    Tour operator had a lot of information about the area which was interesting. We could’ve understood more if he spoke a little slower. Ticket attendant told us we were going toward the city but in fact we traveled the other direction. So just pay attention to the direction of the trip. They offer both directions.

  15. David_H

    The smooth sail and informative driver made for an enjoyable trip, lots of space on board with large clean windows to view the banks on both sides.

  16. Carole_M

    We couldn’t understand the commentary even though we are English speaking Australians. The ride and scenery were good.

  17. David_J

    Great river cruise. It doesn’t go under the West Gate Bridge though. It provides a good perspective of the city and the port.

  18. Stephanie_M

    We had a great time. I like how you can see everything from the cruise. The guy was very informative and relaxed with people. 🌼

  19. Mira_A

    Humours and informative tour. The guide had nice dry humour but still a lot of knowledge about the sights.

  20. Joanna_A

    We had a great time, and there was a story telling about the bridges and the sight from our boat captain. It was nice cruising with friends. The port was easy to find.
