At Melbourne River Cruises, we offer a range of Melbourne city sightseeing cruises that allow you to experience the city from a whole new perspective.

Our Melbourne boat trips allow you to see and explore Melbourne from a fresh perspective. The city is home to some of the most famous landmarks in the country, many of which can be seen from the Yarra River. This includes the Melbourne Cricket Ground, one of the world’s largest and most prestigious sports stadiums. You’ll also get great views of the National Tennis Centre, which hosts the Australian Open. Another must-see landmark is Federation Square, which is a modern cultural precinct that houses galleries, restaurants and performance spaces. The square is also home to a number of public artworks which can be seen from the water, including the iconic orange sculpture.
Melbourne is also known for its impressive modern architecture, and there’s no better way to see it than from the water. The city’s skyline is dominated by sleek skyscrapers like the Eureka Tower, one of the tallest residential buildings in the world. Passengers can also see the striking Melbourne Star Observation Wheel and other notable buildings like the Crown Entertainment Complex and the Arts Centre, which features a distinctive spire design.
