1-Hour Echuca Moama Murray River Sightseeing Cruise (Moama Wharf)

Children aged 0–16 cruise free of charge Free all-day parking is available, and we recommend arriving at least 15 minutes before departure. Your adventure begins at Moama Wharf, where you’ll board the beautifully restored Paddle Steamer Melbourne for a one-hour cruise. From the moment you step aboard, you’ll feel the history beneath your feet. Enjoy live commentary from the captain or crew as they share stories of the Murray River, the vessel’s legacy, and the region’s cultural and natural heritage. Watch the engineer tend the wood-fired boiler and see the original twin-cylinder steam engine in action — an authentic working steam experience rare to find today. As you cruise, take in the scenic river views : towering river gums, peaceful backwaters, abundant birdlife, and the tranquil charm of the Murray. Whether you’re in the sun on deck or enjoying the cool river breeze, it’s the perfect way to relax and reconnect with the river. With more than a century of history, the Paddle Steamer Melbourne offers an experience that’s more than just a cruise — it’s a journey through time, combining heritage, engineering, nature, and storytelling into one unforgettable Murray River adventure.
