Arthur River Cruises – Explore Tasmania’s Wild Heart

Embark on an unforgettable wilderness adventure with Arthur River Cruises, offering an intimate journey into Tasmania’s pristine Tarkine wilderness. Cruise along one of Australia’s last untamed rivers, the Arthur River, and immerse yourself in its stunning reflections, lush rainforests, and abundant wildlife.

Two vessels, MV Reflections and the iconic MV George Robinson (“The Red Boat”), provide unique experiences tailored to highlight the beauty of this North West Tasmania gem. Both cruises include guided walks through ancient rainforests, encounters with towering tree ferns, and opportunities to view native flora such as myrtles, blackwoods, and sassafras.

Bird enthusiasts will be delighted by sightings of the majestic White-bellied Sea Eagles, often seen soaring above or feeding. Lucky guests may even spot the elusive platypus in its natural habitat.

Indulge in a gourmet Tasmanian feast at scenic river landings, featuring Cape Grim scotch fillet, award-winning lamb sausages, homemade salads, and fresh bread rolls, accompanied by premium local beverages. Morning tea and lunch are thoughtfully prepared to showcase Tasmania’s finest produce.

Private charters are available for special occasions, offering an exclusive eco-experience perfect for intimate gatherings or photography groups.

Operating Tuesday to Sunday, these cruises depart from Arthur River township at 9:30am or 10am, depending on the vessel, and return mid-afternoon. Advance bookings are essential, and weather conditions may affect schedules.

Arthur River Cruises is more than a journey—it’s an immersive experience into Tasmania’s untamed beauty. Don’t miss this must-do adventure during your visit to the Apple Isle.
