Give the Gift of an Unforgettable Experience on the Yarra River

Discover Melbourne’s waterways on our relaxing photography cruises, offering unique perspectives of Docklands, the commercial port, city skyline, historical bridges, and local wildlife. Experienced photographer Benjamin Eriksson joins us on this cruise to provide you with tips and tricks, and guidance for all photographer skill levels, ensuring a one-of-a-kind experience.

Suitable for beginners to advanced photographers, our cruises include complimentary refreshments: coffee or tea and pastries on sunrise cruises, and a choice of beer, wine, or soft drink with a cheese platter on midday or sunset cruises. Although we can’t guarantee vivid skies every time, we often witness stunning reflections on calm mornings or evenings.

Unlike other cruises, we stop to allow ample time for capturing Melbourne’s breathtaking views, lens swapping, setting adjustments, and reviewing results. With a maximum of 20 participants, our cruises ensure comfort and freedom to move around the vessel.

Had a great sunset cruise. Would definitely do again. Logan was top notch and an amazing captain. The Duffy was nicely setup. Good for 1 or 2 couples. Plenty of space and good drink options for my wife and me.

Thanks Alex for a wonderful, very peaceful, and relaxing cruise up the Yarra. I highly recommend the romantic lunch for 2. It was very quiet with the electric motor, and the food and drinks really made for an amazingky pleasant experience. We appreciated the shade on such a sunny and beautiful day.

The Melbourne Boat Company were amazing to work with! The boat that we had was fantastic and the staff we had on the day were amazing and so easy going, given that we had a hens and a gaggle of women the captain was still very professional and so was the deckhand that was with us. We so appreciated everything they did for us and made the experience the best

I took my 90 year old Nana on the boat. Whilst there were three big steps for her to navigate she was supported with care by the staff, even moving the boat to make it easier. The seats were a bit high for her so they found a footrest. Her wheelchair was stored carefully at the front of the boat. Our cruise had background music and we were able to chat with people around us. Despite some wind this cruise was so smooth and the electric engine meant there was no noise or smell. A lovely evening!
