I persuaded some friends to become tourists in their own city for a change and we are all so glad that we did. We went on the Fremantle Explorer package and had such a great day. The cruise was wonderful, such a lovely boat with very interesting commentary. Never knew there was so much to know about our beautiful river. We got off in Fremantle, had lunch and a walk around and then returned to Perth on the boat. Dolphin sightings on the boat on the way home just topped things off perfectly. A great day had by all!

Pretty crowded boat on the outward journey. Lovely staff, very helpful. Biggest disappointment was that the commentary was almost impossible to understand so missed a lot.

Great staff, pre-determined tables which saved fighting for a ‘good’ seat. They are all good, plenty of outdoor space to catch some sun and air. Lunch food was delicious and plentiful. Staff were all so attentive and helpful. Only suggestion is to have a map up on all the screens of where we are, a live google map as it were. I’m young and couldn’t hear a lot of what the staff was saying about where we were or what we were alongside.

The team on the River Lady were fantastic but the experience at the Mandoon Estate was underwhelming. We tasted 4 wines. There was no commentary, you had to read about the wine from a card on the bar, and generally you just didn't feel very welcome. Shame as it's a stunning location

We very much enjoyed the tour . The views of the Swan River from the boat were amazing. We enjoyed the commentary and the crew entertainment on the way back to the jetty. They had good voices. People were dancing and having a good time on the way back. The food was tasty and the wine tasting was good. Mondoon winery was picturesque. This is a great way to spend a day in Perth.

Great food, attentive staff and good entertainment along with a lovely cruise on the Swan. We enjoyed every minute of it.

Lovely food tailored perfectly to our dietary preferences eaten in comfortable accommodation on board. The Swan River scenery is beautiful and the wines were well selected. The crew were attentive while serving food and drinks on the outward journey and very entertaining on the return journey.

It was a great night, great company, some amazing views of Perth from being on the Swan River. Definitely a great experience.

Very pleasant ride on smooth water with a bit of description of features we passed by. Boat not full so viewing was easy. Nice A/C inside. An OK ride on an OK river from Perth Quay to Fremantle & return. The phenomenon is keeping Swan River as part of the community—too shallow for industrial use. Lots of marinas & yacht clubs, wind surfers, small boats. Very pleasant afternoon on the water!

A huge thank you to All the amazing staff for such a wonderful experience. The views, service and food were outstanding. We had the most enjoyable day and will definitely be booking another one. Thank you so much.

This review relates to the New Years Dinner cruise. Firstly the positives…..booking process was efficient and we were advised we would be seated in a semi outdoor area…no problem. Fireworks were excellent and food was acceptable. The negatives…. Boarding was slow, as the person boarding us had a list of boarders and the seating map, but it would have saved a lot of time if an alphabetical list of guests was available with the table numbers cross referenced, or even better…a simple cross reference of customer bar code to table number. The app on each table recommended for ordering drinks simlply did not work, causing frustration amongst the majority of guests, and the need to go to the bar to order. Not a real problem, except we were told we needed to use the App to avoid queues at the bar. The credit card payment system at the bar was unreliable. Fortunately I had cash but other guests were not so fortunate. There was no count down or commentary for midnight, which was very poor for New Years Eve. Fortunately guests improvised themselves. Simple improvements could make this a very memorable evening (for the right reasons)

Nice cruise with the right amount of commentary. There were some parties that were drinking a bit and loud, so it could be hard to hear at times, but overall nice experience.

Was amazing crew friendly and really helpful dinner and desserts 10 plus even the entertainment was amazing top job guys well done

A very relaxing way to see Perth and enjoy the sights via water ways make sure you pick a day with good weather if you want to sit outside and enjoy..

We were looking forward to learning about what we were seeing between Fremantle & Perth. The trip up the river toward Perth was pleasant. However, the commentary was difficult to hear. On the return to Fremantle, 3 Holland America Line excursions joined us & it got very noisy! (We are on the same ship!)
