Great experience on the paddle steamer

John 7 April 2026

The paddle steamer experience was a lot of fun. Great crew and very informative. The winery was nice and great service from the staff but only low light was the set menu which did not give many options and the meat dishes to choose from were both with high fat content. Would recommend the paddle steamers but not the lunch at the winery.

Cassie

Hi John, it’s great to hear about your positive experience on the Paddle Steamer. Thank you for your kind words and feedback!

Average meal no wine tasting

Nat 15 December 2025

Paddle streamer cruise was the highlight. Restaurant was nice, however meals were tiny. not enough to get full on at all. Experience also said wine tasting however these were not mentioned nor accommodated on the day. Disappointing.

Murray River Cruise with lunch

Bev 12 December 2025

I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Would have loved a little more time actually cruising the river but it was wonderful day regardless. The commentary was so informative and light-hearted. The meal at the winery was scrumptious and the service so friendly and delightful. Highly recommend.

Echuca Paddle-steamer cruise and Winery lunch

Julie 25 November 2024

What a delightful experience we had in Echuca! The ‘Canberra’ paddle-steamer cruise was so interesting with the Captain giving a commentary during the 30 minute cruise to the winery. At the winery we had a delicious two course lunch, followed by wine tasting and a walk around the grounds, before the Canberra picked us up and we cruised back to the Port of Echuca. Such an enjoyable 3 hours and good value for money.
