Captain Cook Cruises is offering 25% off Murray River cruises, with their Winter Sun sale from June to August 2014. Passengers can discover the winter enchantment and beauty of the Murray River and the taste sensations of the Murray's food and wine trail with prices starting from as little $674 per person.
The cruise experience starts with the ship itself. The PS Murray Princess is a modern replica of the paddle wheelers that cruised the Murray in the 1800's. The PS Murray Princess has two spacious, yet cosy paddlewheel lounges featuring polished wood and gold trimmings, an elegant spiral staircase and spectacular two-story glass windows of the working paddle wheel.
Sit back in the warm paddlewheel lounges and enjoy the amazing views as the Murray Princess cruises past towering limestone cliffs, through picturesque gorges and along riverbanks lined with mallee scrub and red gum forests.
Winter birdlife on the Murray River includes an abundance of Australian favourites including Swans, Swamp Hens and Wood Ducks and their young. Plant life is also thriving with Lignum bushes flowering and rushes and reeds getting a vibrant green colour to them. Led by on-shore guides passengers can enjoy nature walks, eco-tours and learn about the thriving ecology of the river.
Each day features an exciting day trip to historic ports, sacred Aboriginal sites, a sheep station and woolshed and a native wildlife shelter.
Follow the food and wine trial for tastings at a number of vineyards and cellar doors, and in the evening, an Aussie-style campfire barbecue on the riverbank one night.
