Being on the Yarra and seeing the land area from that perspective. Also, the commentary was very informative and engaging and, even though I lived in Melbourne for 30 years, I learned a lot from it. (My only criticism is that it would have been good to have more about the Aborigines of the Yarra at the time of European settlement).

I love the different perspective you get from the river. The factual comments the captain gave were very interesting, but there was too much “waffle” about himself. A personal note is great, but his jokes were nearly “cringy “. A lot of areas/buildings, etc were not commentated on at all because he was still talking about something from five minutes before. Would be excellent if it was a bit more professional.

A very pleasant trip. The Captains commentary was full of interesting facts. I didn’t realise there was so much early settlers history along the banks of the Yarra. It is a stress free way to see the city.
