Pleasant and informative tour that wasn’t too long. Surprisingly good and with great views of the city.

My American friends were fascinated by the difference in each end of the river on two hour tour. From port to green riverbanks

Lots of good views of the Melbourne skyline. The audio could have been louder to be clearer. The weather was nice and we enjoyed the ride as well as the scenery. Learned something about the history of Melbourne.

The cruise takes you upstream and down stream. We found upstream better and the docklands downstream was a bit too long for us
But of course one can sit back and enjoy the day with many pictures to be taken while on the cruise
They offer some drinks and tit bits on the cruise and one can move around d and capture all the sights

I’ve been to Melbourne many times but have never done a river cruise before. On a sunny but cool autumn day it was a fantastic way to relax and enjoy this dynamic city and a little of its history from the water. Highly recommend for good photo ops and a relaxing outing.

Trip down to the port was very interesting. Good commentary. Downriver more interesting than upriver for me

When purchasing the tickets on Viator, we chose our tickets according to the age ranges specified and thereby selected 4 seniors tickets for those in our group above age 65. However, on picking up the tickets from Berth 2 at Southbank, I was informed that a senior is one who must hold a senior card in Au and NZ. After much "discussions", the person at Berth 2 let the matter go. I feel this point should be clear and not be an unhappy start to the cruise.
The river cruise, though pleasant, is in itself not memorable and it comes with a 15 mins wait time in between to pick up passengers. Basically the 2h cruise is made up of a one hr return cruise sailing east in direction of Sth Yarra and a second one hr return cruise sailing west towards Docklands.

The ferry is terribly slow. 2 hrs is way too long. And honestly, it’s not worth going for one complete hour upstream (where there’s no architecture). And if we choose a 1 hr trip, it took us upstream where’s there’s nothing to see other than the MCG.
This trip can easily be done in 45 min max with slightly a faster moving ferry. And why’d you have a ferry with a closed (opaque) top. People sitting inside away from the windows cannot see the skyline.
