What to expect
You'll board an air-conditioned vehicle for transport to the river, then settle onto the cruise vessel as the sun drops low. The top deck gives you clear sightlines across the water as golden light spreads across the landscape. Back on dry land, head to Smithy's where a camp oven meal arrives at your table—real outback cooking, not theatre. Live performers keep things lively through dinner. The bar runs throughout, so you can grab a drink whenever. Total time is around 4.5 hours, so plan for an evening commitment.
