Lovely way to spend the afternoon
What was there not to enjoy! We journeyed to the southern and northern points of Murray Bridge on the Captain Proud, sipping on bubbles and lunching while enjoying the waterway scenery. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The commentary was very informative and we were able to appreciate the past and present.

Captain Proud Murray river luncheon cruise
We thoroughly enjoyed this short cruise and the lunch was great. We had never cruised the Murray river before so this was a nice introduction to get the feel and decide whether or not we would like to book at another time for the overnight cruises or book the house boats. Staff were really friendly. Would recommend this cruise.
From Captain Proud Paddle Boat Murray River Lunch Cruise
Thank you Jennifer, we are pleased you enjoyed your Murray River cruise. The cruise presents some wonderful scenery at a leisurely pace. We hope you have an opportunity to return and travel again.

Belle journée autour d Adelaide
Tour rapide sur les collines autour d'Adélaïde, lunch sympathique sur le captain proud et au retour arrêt d'une heure et demi à Hahndorf. Cela permet de se faire une idée des alentours avant de programmer de plus longues balades sur les collines. Équipage du Capitain proud accueillant et belle balade de 3 heures sur la Murray River
