I saw the Polly Woodside, the 19th-century sailing ship, the navigation passage and marina, the Crown Casino, the Westgate Bridge, and stunning views of downtown Melbourne.
The meaning of travel for me is not to punch the scenic spots, not to eat, drink and enjoy relaxation, not to pass by to take photos and post friends but to personally integrate and perceive each travel place through the stories and people I meet on the journey.
I just love to book in with Experience Oz, always the best deal to save that hole in a pocket when travelling with kids.
We loved the experience on the Father's Day, my folks from overseas and truly loved the whole experience. The captain and deckhead made it so entertaining and informative. Free beverages on board made it even more special for us. I definitely recommend it.

Up & Down River Cruise
Overall OK however the commentary pronunciation of Yarra - Yurrah, and Melbourne - Melborn, was very disappointing.
