Tour guide was very knowledgeable and staff on board Proud Mary friendly and helpful.
Diver needs to review his conversation so cross a line
We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise. The lunch was very appetising. Our coach driver was very knowledgeable of aspects of the country we drove through and had lots of anecdotes to share of his own experiences. Thanks.
The meal we were given on board was excellent and the trip on the river very enjoyable. A very accommodating captain of the boat let me hold the steering wheel which was a great photo opportunity. A great day out.
Lunch on Proud Mary was very enjoyable. The trip there and back was informative and we saw a lot of the surrounding area. This being the 3rd day we had travelled in the Adelaide surrounds we thought the time allocated at Mannum and the chocolate factory were a little long.
Wish it was longer, found it very relaxing and the food was lovely, I had the salad followed by apple crumble and the portions were ample. Our bus driver (Rodger) was very informative along the way and I would definitely call them as we got picked up across the road from where we were staying and dropped off also..
the cruise boat didn't run on that particular day. the driver said our replacement boat would wait for our arrival, it didn't and we got dropped to Hahndorf and had to pay for our lunch which was supposed to be on the boat. then told we would get a refund and have heard nothing....
The trip was ok, it seemed that it was stalling to unnecessarily extend time spent with the activity. Unfortunately the cheese factory was not open.
Great day out
