• 5A relaxing day on the river with good food and wine

  It was delightful to sail upstream away from the city centre on the scenic Swan River. The wine tasting and lunch platters were delicious. We enjoyed our time onshore at Mandoon Estate, indulging in a unique wine and macaron pairing. On the return journey, sweets, tea, coffee and more drinks were available, and there were also lovely vocal performances by crew members. Many thanks to our crew Ethan, Joy, Finley and Ayisha for making this a great day out!

• 5A Superb Day on the Swan River

  What an absolutely superb and unforgettable day cruising along the magnificent Swan River from Perth to Mandoon Jetty! Lee was an excellent captain and provided fascinating, informative commentary throughout the outward journey, while Joy and Mai looked after us magnificently. The food and wine served on board were delectable, and the winery visit was both interesting and highly enjoyable. Tasting wines matched with macarons was a wonderfully novel experience and worked surprisingly well. The return cruise gave us another opportunity to admire the spectacular scenery and sights along this beautiful river, but the unexpected highlight was Joy performing a fabulous selection of songs. What an extraordinary voice! If you are looking for a relaxing full-day cruise combining outstanding service, delicious food, excellent wine, magnificent scenery and great entertainment, all at a very reasonable price, this cruise is most certainly for you. It was an exceptional experience from beginning to end and we cannot recommend it highly enough.

• 1Do not recommend - did not deliver what we paid for

  The whole point of us booking this cruise was to view historic sites all along the Swan River. Our colleague is a history buff and we wanted to treat him to a tour along the river. When we boarded the cruise we were informed that we were only going to Maylands (a third of the full distance!) due to high waters and that a bus would take us from Maylands to Mandoon Estate and back. The skipper would have known the tides and water levels before that morning and prior knowledge also allowed them to arrange the bus to ship us most of the way to Mandoon and back. The organisers did not notify anyone of these changes to the cruise (two thirds of the trip was not completed). This is unacceptable. We had a booking of 7 people specifically for this trip and we were not notified beforehand of the changes and given the option to change our booking dates. This is what should have occurred. Instead, they delivered a trip that we did not pay for. I'll be notifying the ACCC. Completely unacceptable and ruined the day for us. Would not recommend booking with Captain Cook Cruises or via this platform.

About Perth

Perth is the capital of Western Australia, a sunny Indian Ocean city on the Swan River with a large hilltop park, white beaches and the port of Fremantle.

Perth sits where the Swan River widens into a broad estuary on the Indian Ocean coast, and it is often described as one of the most remote large cities in the world, with Adelaide more than two thousand kilometres to the east. Kings Park, a large reserve of bushland and botanic garden on a hill, looks over the skyline and the water, and the Elizabeth Quay waterfront anchors the centre.

Top-ranked sights in Perth: Margaret River, Swan River, Rottnest Island.
