RIVER CRUISING

From a small gathering to your big party.
You can have it all!
Mildura Cruises was born out of the love of living by the Mighty Murray River. The McLaughlan family experienced a huge amount of time on the Murray before embarking on this incredible journey. Back in December 2016 the husband and wife team purchased the Riverqueen Voyager from the ‘River King’ Wayne Roberts and Gayle Kennedy who were the founding operators for over 16 years.
Dennis and Veronica embraced this newfound adventure due to the many water cruises they had experienced and enjoyed via Wayne and Gayle’s company. Getting on board a relaxing cruise with an incredible view was where this passion and drive came from, to continue this long-loved business.
They have now been operating for over 4 years with the business evolving, growing and being rebranded to ‘Mildura Cruises’. They take great pride in the business they’ve built and now love the fact that there kids have grow up and become apart of the team. It’s truly an awesome family owned and operated business who just love the water and scenery they get to share with the locals and holiday makers.
In 2019 the fleet expanded with the option of parties for both big and small. The River Queen caters for up to 49 guests and the Island Hopper holds 12.
Check out both boats information below.

THE ISLAND HOPPER
The newest vessel to our fleet.
Just a small group option to booze cruise the Murray River – This vessel holds 12 customers with a crew of 2. The unique part of this vessel is it’s skippered which makes it more enjoyable for all guests. Are you in need to catch up with a group of mates? It’s your perfect daily cruise.
Enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
The advantage of having a qualified crew is we are not limited to 4 knots. This vessel is with 2×100 Honda outboards which can get you to your destination quickly or it can be a a lazy 2 hour cruise to a local sandbar to stop off and enjoy a swim.
A good traveller has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.
With 360 degree views not impeded as it has all the weather protection you may need come rain or shine. Nothing beats a cruise to your destination choice or event, mixed in with an awesome sound system to play the music of your choice. We can offer an all girls team if you prefer. It can be for something fancy like a lift to Trentham or just a lazy booze cruise with a stop off and a swim. Seriously who wouldn’t jump on the Hopper!
