Not a bad river cruise - pleasantly surprised
Went for this in Jan 2026 to show friends how gold coast looks like. Actually not a bad experience at all. Had hot chocolate for non coffee or tea drinkers. There were plenty of lamingtons, shortbread cookies, fruit cakes for snacks. Additional snacks soft drinks and alcohol could be purchased on board. The 2nd floor not recommended for very tall people as you may hit your head when going under the bridges, but the captain will let you know when we go under the bridge. Overall happy with experience.

Morning River Cruise - Surfers Paradise
This river cruise was excellent. It is very informative, very interesting and fun. A must do if you’re wanting to get a great view of life along the river and learn about the history and lifestyle.

Great boat ride
We did this tour on our first day to get a good view of the area and it was great for that. The tour was very informative and we learnt of lots of other places to go explore. The staff were all so lovely and helpful and even let the kids drive the boat for a bit. Good value for money, would highly recommend

Great for all ages
As a family it was perfect. Emily was superb and very safety conscious. The captain let the kids have a turn at steering. Nice clear commentary. A great outing highly recommend. Very relaxing.
