I can not fault the cruise company at at all
I can not fault the cruise company at at all, the tour guide was very knowledgable about Melbourne but honestly it's a very boring river, there is nothing even worth getting your camera out for. No pretty gardens or anything.

Taking this tour was a good opportunity to visit the Southbank
Taking this tour was a good opportunity to visit the Southbank. The tour itself was fine - got a few bits of trivia and history from the captain as we toured, though he lacked enthusiasm about the sites which had a negative effected on my view of the tour overall. I liked being able to see what was along the Yarra and spotted a few places to visit after getting off the boat. An hour went by fast.
