You’ll be picked up from your centrally located Adelaide hotel. Travel to Mannum, the birthplace of the River Murray Paddlesteamers.

Travel through rolling hills and Mallee outback to the mighty Murray River bringing watered life to a thirsty land – a land now rich in green vineyards, golden citrus orchards and prosperous rural communities.

Mannum is the Murray River gateway to the harsh empty inland of Australia, still reeking with our historic past – the bawdy days of the riverboat men toiling up river in the blazing sun.

Cruise through the waters of the Murray and enjoy morning tea of scones, jam and cream. Lunch is followed at Mannum.

A great day driving through the Adelaide Hills. It took quite a while to get to the Murray River, but a pleasant drive with a good driver, very knowledgeable of area and recent history. On the river for about 1.5hrs. Lunch very enjoyable.
