Venice on the Yarra Luxury Gondola Cruises provide a unique opportunity to enjoy a relaxing journey along Melbourne's beautiful Yarra River. Based on Venetian boat plans and built in Melbourne, our gondolas are a luxurious way to cruise the river. Each Gondola takes up to four passengers and is opulently appointed with upholstered velvet seats, plush cushions, warm rugs and a fold over canopy to keep customers warm and dry if the weather is cool. A cosy romantic ambience is created with soft music and gentle lighting.
When you step into the boat a bottle of quality champagne will be ready on ice. You can now just relax back with a glass of champagne and take in the sights and sounds of Melbourne s Yarra river.
Your gondolier will row the boat for you from a separate section at the rear of the boat. Moving at about 2 knots your cruise will travel through the city section of Melbourne s Yarra river. You ll glide past all the main attractions the Exhibition Centre, Aquarium, Southbank and Crown Casino, Flinders Street Station, Federation Square and the tranquil Alexandra Gardens.
The cruises depart and disembark from the Crown Casino floating landing or from the pontoons at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre and Southgate (the departure point will be confirmed when you make your booking). At the completion of your cruise you ll be taken back to the pontoon and our gondolier will help you disembark. You ll be in the heart of the Crown/Southbank precinct with plenty of entertainment options to continue your evening if you so wish.
Cruises operate by appointment only 7 nights a week throughout the year. Phone our booking office on 9399 1991. The gondolas are also available for photo shoots, weddings and special events.
