3 Night Murray River Discovery - PS Emmylou

A wonderful trip. Relaxing on the river with beautiful scenery and bird life with the sound of the paddles and the engine. Daily activities provided were enjoyable and dinner by the river and entertainment around the campfire provided memorable moments. Staff were ready to keep everyone well provided for with tasty food and drinks. Staff were more than helpful, friendly and informative. Accommodation was very comfortable. Climbing the stairs to our room was the most challenging part of the whole trip. Our cars were securely stored and we were bused when needed. Congratulations PS Emmylou. Loved it all

My sister and I had the most amazing three nights on the Emmylou. The staff were exceptional, each person made sure you were cared for, from Julie’s big smile as she welcomed you into the saloon each meal, Greg our chef and his amazing meals, will need to loose a few kilo’s from the trip now. Geoff’s love of steam engineers, we discovered he has his own steam engine at home, he really did know every detail, and was always happy to have a chat. Scott was the best captain, also doing an outstanding job teaching us about the Murray river and being a fantastic tour guide. Beth taking us upstream to teach us more about how to tell if the Murray river is healthy, she was a great story teller, and made us laugh. And finally Scott the bus driver, he like the others kept us informed, and cared for. The boat was in excellent condition, the Murray never lets you down, it was simply amazing, and should be on everyone’s bucket list. I think I can say for the 15 guests, THANK YOU Emmylou! We all left the Emmylou having had a great 3 nights away, learnt a lot, laughed a lot and enjoying this very special piece of Australia’s history. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about it, these folks are true professionals.

Excellent itinerary incorporating cruise time with on -shore excursions. Approximately 60 km down river but surprisingly only 22 road km from Moama.The en-suite cabins with a/c are compact, but really there is so much deck and saloon space one is only in the cabin for perhaps a nap and of course sleep. We had a double and found it fine.The crew are extremely attentive and what comes out of the small galley is a credit to the company. Moorings were 2 nights at Perricoota Station (jump off point for land excursions) and Layfield Mooring on last night and on shore campfire and singalong . Pack frugally for really the need to change attire is minimal with case stowage being under the bed. Adequate coat hooks for hats/coats etc
