You will be picked up from your centrally located Adelaide hotel. Travel to Mannoum, the birthplace of Murray River Paddlesteamers.
Journey through the hills and navigate the mighty Murray River bringing life to a thirsty land – and which today is a land rich in vineyards, citrus orchards and thriving rural communities.
Mannoum is the Murray River's gateway into the empty inlands of Australia, still steaming from our historic past – (the days of debauchery ascending the river in full sun.)
Cruise the waters of the Murray and enjoy a light cake with tea and coffee. Buffet lunch is served on board the boat.
