I really liked this tour. It is different from the regular wine tours and you get to hear a bit of history and try some new things on this tour. Everything didn't go right for u s mainly in the rowing department but we overcame and made it up the river. We enjoyed seeing the wildlife and hearing about the aboriginals. My family enjoyed walking up the Cliffside to get the whole view of the river and landscape. Then we enjoyed a very interesting lunch did bring snacks for our kids just in case but I enjoyed trying the many different items that I wouldn't have tried if they were not described and offered to me like this trip did. I got to try out crocodile, kangaroo and emu meat. While I didn't like kangaroo or emu but I really did enjoy the crocodile meat, plus the homemade pestos and jams. The cave tour was interesting its short but I am glad it was since I am not a cave person but I did the crawl through and army crawl through some parts of the cave so it was an adventure. Our Guide was great and very informative.
