Enchanting Murray River & Daryl Braithwaite Event

Adelaide is a city full of culture, flavours and entertainment. Known for its relaxed pace of life, culture, art, wineries and entertainment and with the captivating coastline within reach, it’s the perfect destination to enjoy a fabulous city break. Explore the city’s heart with a visit to Victoria Square; its vibrant 19th century Central Market bustles with crowds hunting for fresh produce. If you want to hit the beach, head to historic Glenelg or enjoy a serene walk around the striking waterfront and stop for a glass of delicious local wine in one of the charming bars.

Leaving Adelaide behind, you’ll embark on a ferry journey to Kangaroo Island to begin your full day tour. Kangaroo Island offers stunning scenery, crystal-clear waters and beautiful wilderness inhabited by native Australian animals. First, you’ll visit Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery where you’ll take a guided walk before lunch. Next, you’ll visit to Clifford’s Honey Farm where you’ll enjoy an informative talk and sample homemade honey ice cream before bringing your day to a fabulous close with a board walk at the Seal Bay Conservation Park.

Savour a dreamy day out as you embark on a tour which will allow you to savour the tastes of Barossa’s mouth-watering food and delicious wine. Relish the tastiest flavours and chat with winemakers at Pindarie Wines and Lambert Estate, and linger over a two-course lunch, with time for coffee and chocolate port on a sunny deck afterwards. You’ll also travel to Mengler Hill Lookout for beguiling views of the valley before stopping at the multi-award-winning Jacob’s Creek Visitor Centre, where you’ll sample their delicious products and enjoy a walking tour.

With two number one hits and 15 singles in the Australian top 40, singer Daryl Braithwaite has been a fixture on the country’s music scene for fifty years. You’ll find yourself among an intimate audience of just 250 people as you savour a selection of his hits, complemented by a three-course gala dinner. You’ll then embark the PS Murray Princess for a unique cruise experience. Embrace the character and charm of yesteryear as you savour your elegant surroundings. Settle into your comfortable cabin for your first night aboard, where you'll spend overnight in Mundurra.

In 1879, the first bridge to span the mighty Murray River was built at Edwards Crossing, which quickly became the bustling township of Murray Bridge. Following a hearty breakfast, you’ll embark on a guided tour of Murray Bridge and explore the town’s historic Roundhouse.

Back on board, you’ll enjoy a special presentation of the bounty of food and wine produced in the Riverland and continue your journey upriver where you’ll moor at Salt Bush Flat.

This morning, you’ll enjoy a spot of exercise as you join your guide for a nature walk around the spectacular scenery of Salt Bush Flat, learning the secrets of the local flora and fauna. Back on board, you’ll head downriver to River View Lodge where you’ll embark on a wildlife tour. In small groups, you’ll wind through the maze of river and observe the majestic views of river birdlife, including darters, herons and egrets before enjoying an afternoon of bocce or fishing challenges. Savour a final night celebration of the farewell Captain’s Dinner and Dance.
