An Excellent Day on the Swan

Three of us had a wonderful day partaking in the “ Taste of The Swan Valley Tour”. From start to finish this tour was well organised and very well run by the professional crew. The commentary from Warren the captain while cruising up the river was most informative and interesting. Both the wine tasting and lunch provided on board were well prepared, delicious and plentiful. We opted for the premium beverage option on the return trip and were not disappointed. Bec and Audrey did a marvellous job all day looking after everyone on board and their singing at the end was a pleasant surprise. An excellent day and worth every cent.

Excellent experience

We were only in Perth for a few days so had to fit lots of activities in, I'm very glad I picked this trip as just the cruise alone for a couple of hours down the swan river was fabulous extremely relaxed added with a lovely lunch with champagne and also some wine tasting. Stopped off at a winery and chocolate shop then back onto the cruise home, again this was very relaxing with plenty of wine to enjoy the views, the staff were excellent and very attentive they even put on entertainment. Overall a fantastic day out.

A great day out on the Swan River.

A very well organised cruise on the Swan River, with a nice lunch and wine tasting on board followed by a short coach trip to a winery and chocolate factory for more tastings. Return by boat with afternoon tea. Definitely recommended.

A perfect day to wrap up our holiday!!

Wonderful experience from the get go! Staff were a delight, food was lovely and everything was well organised. From the boat captain Lee, the land host Kim, to the team on board they were all friendly , fun and professional. A big shout out to Bec and Ariana who had the most lovely voices and gave such great performances it was a terrific end to a very special day. The food was lovely, the winery has some great samples and if you go hungry then it is your own fault as there was lots to share and engage in.

Operator response

What brilliant feedback, thank you so much for this lovely review. We will be sure to pass on your appreciation to Lee, Kim, Bec, Ariana and the team. It is really nice to hear that this experience was the perfect way to finish your holiday. We hope to welcome you back soon. Paige, Captain Cook Cruises.

Nice Way to Spend a Day in Perth

This was a lovely wine tasting boat trip into and back from Swan Valley. Service was excellent, staff very friendly and the tour content was spot on. The trip itself was great overall, but the open bar on the return leg definitely makes it good value for money!

Operator response

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Our wine cruise is very unique and a beautiful way to experience the Swan Valley from another point of view. Paige, Captain Cook Cruises.
