“The river keeps singing, and so will I”

The journey begins as Adelaide slips into memory while you head towards the Murray River. Proud Mary awaits with open sails to carry you away from your worries. As the sun warms your skin, watch in awe as the river unfolds its storybook beauty – towering cliffs, ancient red gums, and graceful weeping willows come alive around you. Galahs dance across a canvas of rose and emerald skies while cockatoos perch on shimmering reeds. Dive into Murray's long history and vibrant ecosystems with expert guides by your side.

As the day unfolds, let your senses enjoy more than just sights – savor a delicious 2-course meal complemented by tea, coffee, and water. If you wish to extend this delightful experience, unwind further at the bar for an unexpected twist on your adventure-filled day.

A walk and a drive to remember

Land ahoy! Transition from deck views to a riverside stroll filled with photo opportunities. The Mannum Lookout offers stunning panoramic vistas of the Murray River, making it well worth the journey. Along the way, capture postcard-worthy scenes featuring tranquil waters, leaping fish, and boats gliding by.
