About this tour

Drift down the Yarra as Melbourne's skyline transforms after dark on this three-hour floating dinner. You'll work through four courses in a proper restaurant that happens to be moving, with beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks flowing throughout. The river corridor unfolds past parks and landmarks, the city lights reflecting off the water—a different angle on the place than any ground-level view offers.

Highlights

  • Four-course dinner with main course choice at booking
  • Full bar: wine, beer, premium spirits and liqueurs included
  • Riverside parks and city landmarks visible from the deck
  • Sunset to night-time progression over three hours
  • Suitable for all fitness levels

What to expect

You'll board near the city and spend the evening on a proper restaurant vessel moving steadily downriver and back. Course arrives steadily—expect unhurried pacing rather than quick service. The vistas shift as light fades: waterfront parkland gives way to the glittering towers of the CBD and beyond. Bring a light layer if evenings are cool; the deck is accessible but the vessel itself isn't fully wheelchair-friendly. Minimum passenger numbers apply, so confirm closer to your date.

Good to know

Get yourself to the departure point via public transport or taxi—no hotel pickup included. Prams and infant seats available. Advise the operator if you're part of another existing booking. Cancellation possible if numbers don't meet minimums; you'll receive an alternative date or refund.
