Winter is nearly here (and we think it is one of the very best times to be on the river)

Misty mornings, sunny days, less river traffic, off peak rates, campfire on the riverbank ...you get the picture!

Head to www.houseboatbookings.com, choose a houseboat, send an email enquiry to your chosen operator and go from there. It really is that simple.

Have you cruised past these amazing cliffs?
If not, plan a houseboat holiday and you can tick it off your list of wondrous views to enjoy!

The Riverland’s striking cliffs 🌅

Shaped by the Murray over thousands of years, they’re one of the region’s most unforgettable natural landmarks.
