We didn’t know what to expect when we signed up for this cruise, but we were pleasantly surprised. The cruise starts on the river just to the left of the Rotunda and heads west to the Weir Gate before turning around and then heading east to the Zoo. We disembarked at the zoo which actually worked out great, bc we then spent the afternoon working our way through the beautiful Botanic Gardens. The cruise itself was a great way to orient yourself to Adelaide. The captain and the woman who was helping were both really friendly and knowledgeable. The commentary touched on everything from Adelaide history to the interesting architecture and landscaping we saw along the way. There were also scones and other snacks/drinks available for purchase onboard. Overall great cruise and highly recommended for both tourists and locals!
I went on a Popeye cruise with some friends this morning and it was an absolutely delightful experience! Our captain provided fantastic commentary and lots of interesting history along the way. We pre-ordered the Devonshire Tea option which was delicious, fresh and a very generous serve. And the service on board was friendly and efficient. Thank you so much, it was a fabulous way to spend a sunny spring morning and a good reminder of how much fun it is to be a tourist in your home town.
Nice 45min cruise through centre of town. Nothing especially spectacular to see, but Sam have a good running commentary on the buildings and areas along the river banks. Plus some history. A pleasant trip on a nice day.
After more than 14 years in Adelaide, I finally found my way to the Popeye for a nice morning tea with the kids and we loved it! Thanks to our captain and all the information he shared with us… tour was nice and the scones were amazing!
Quirky little boat trip with upbeat informative commentary from the Skipper. Would recommend the scones followed by a bottle of wine as we did, all served during the cruise.
I joked with my husband that our 90-minute cruise would be the 45-minute cruise done twice, I was right. Hahaha. The Kangaroo Island Spirit tasting was disappointing; we could barely hear the girl telling us about each drink over the cackling of the women on board, and the measures were minuscule. We ordered two cheese plates to accompany our tasting, and this too was very average. If you are a group of girls wanting g a good start to an evening out, fabulous. If you are a couple after an informative cruise along the River Torrens, you will be disappointed.
Had a great time on the river yesterday. Popeye cruises were excellent. Very informative with some humour thrown in, very enjoyable time. If you get the chance, definitely go for a cruise!
Only 45 minute cruise up and down the Torrens River. Our Captain was a gold mine of information. Pre book for seating priority and while you're at it treat yourself to Devonshire Tea.
Really friendly captain. Enjoyed a lot. I wish seats on the cruise boat were more comfortable.
Had a wonderful time on this tour. Tom, our captain was very informative and entertaining. It was our Grandma’s 80th and he was so lovely and let her honk the horn and have some photos. A lovely 45 minute cruise with a lot of information about Adelaide. Would definitely recommend coming down and checking it out!!
