Overview

Classic Cruise's boat's depart from Berth 3, Southgate, every week, Wednesday through Sunday from 10:45am offering 60 minute cruises traveling, both upstream and down. If you are short on time this is a great way to experience the Yarra within the City of Melbourne.

Step aboard and embark on a journey aboard our 100 year old + classic ferry's (MV Grower built 1924 and SL Protector built in 1914 ) where you'll be transported to an era of elegance and charm.

Marvel at Melbourne's skyline and ever expanding waterfront bathed in the golden hues at sunset, and savour the thrill of gliding under historic bridges. Your adventure includes live commentary, adding an informative soundtrack to the scenic spectacle.

Indulge in BYO gourmet bites and sip on fine wines as you meander through the heart of the city. This is more than a cruise; it's a voyage into the past, a rendezvous with history, and an unforgettable cruise on Melbourne's majestic waterway.
