I had a highly enjoyable time on the tour. The staff was very helpful and the commentary was very interesting. I would recommend this to friends.

James was knowledgeable and just the right amount of chattiness. First experience with Uber. Only here for a few days so won’t use it again

Enjoyed cruise, commentary was good on outward journey. The trip to Breakfast Creek Hotel was spoilt by having 500m to walk which included 20 plus steps, not nine as stated on Viator and over the bridge. Chose this trip as it said 9 steps, 400m no mention of bridge walk or extra steps. Have a fear of heights and mobility issue with steps. Commentary on return journey could not be heard.

The cruise was very nice and so was morning tea. We set sail half an hour late due to the radio not working and there was only one tiolet working. So we were late getting to lunch at the pub so a quick eat and no time to have a look around the homestead which was dissapointing. Regards Joyce and Peter.

A fabulous day cruising on the Brisbane River and learning so much about our city, its parks and buildings. The morning tea scones and tea/coffee was scrumptious. Lunch at the iconic Breaky Creek did not disappoint and it was a nice surprise to be able to witness a guest spear the keg for the day. Thoroughly recommend this relaxing, informative and fun cruise. Top marks to the friendly and helpful crew!

It is more than 400m, more like 500. 9 steps was about 20 to get on to bridge, fortunately there is a ramp on Breakfast Creek Hotel side. If this information had been on your website, we would not have booked this cruise. Lunch was ok, Cruise was ok and staff were good. Coffee & scones were ok.

This was a birthday gift for my husband. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend. The cruise was very comfortable and informative, retelling stories and the history of riverlife locations along the way was a highlight of the cruise. The devonshire tea was fresh and very yummy. The Lunch at the brekky creek was delicious and we were took the 10.30 cruise, just in time to see the spiking of the keg a long past tradition. Thank you for making our day. John & Annette
