Murray River River Cruises and Tours

Murray river cruises, cruising the murray river is one of the most amazing and surprising experiences you'll have..

The Murray is much more than a river, it is quintessentially Australian experience. Within a relatively short distance from Adelaide and Melbourne you can experience jaw-dropping beauty, diverse history and luxury all surrounded by a sense of peace that has to be experienced to understand.

As the Murray carves its way through our sun-burnt and contrasting landscape you'll discover a new part of the world that's not overrun with tourists and will allow you time to reconnect with yourself, family and friends.

Enjoy a Proud Mary Cruise

Join the intimate cruising vessel, the Proud Mary to discover the Murray River's eco-system at its best. Only a 45 minute drive from Adelaide the vessel embarks and disembarks guests from Murray Bridge , where garaging is available for those wishing not to transfer via our luxury Expedition coach. Our cruises operate 365 days a year and include all meals, prepared exclusively by our resident chefs, private river view en-suite accommodation and daily nature based shore excursions.  

Offering both 5 night and 2 night cruise, the Proud Mary gives you an excellent opportunity to see the river environment in a different perspective and may allow you to view some of the nocturnal wildlife, especially birds such as pelicans, night herons, owls and coots. Our experienced and friendly staff will ensure all your personal needs are attended to every step of the journey, so sit back, relax and experience the beautiful Murray River at its best aboard the Proud Mary cruising vessel.

Cruises on Australia's Murray River

The Murray River and its surroundings are normally overlooked as a significant cruising region of international appeal but many visitors are now discovering the Murray River is a wonderfully natural and great place enjoy. A slow river that easily touches your soul and satisfies the inner spirit.

Spud Hilton, San Francisco Chronicle Staff Writer recently stated "The Murray is the ultimate lazy river, a 100-million-year-old ribbon that winds 1,470 miles through South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales, passing farms, Aboriginal homelands, red gum forests, holiday cottages, arid scrub and towering ochre-colored limestone cliffs festooned with snow-white cockatoos."

Mornings you'll find mirror-perfect water, not yet disturbed by by a sole. As the mist gently rises over the water, golden sunrays pierce the huge river red gums and pelicans silently look for fish as they'd done the night before. You should encounter incredible wildlife including kangaroos, emus, koalas, goannas, kookaburras and much more. You'll find other early risers will enjoy the serenity with you but there's plenty of quiet spots to be with yourself and a nice cup of tea or coffee.

Traffic along the river is fairly minimal. You'll find milk boats, fishing craft, some ferries in South Australia, occasional small paddleboats and a diverse amarda of houseboats (Murray River is the houseboating capital of Australia). The Murray is used for by watersports enthusiasts with ski boats and canoes and kayaks .

Part of the rich history of Australia is it's Murray-Darling paddle steamers . The Murray River was used by more than a hundred paddle steamers and barges during the heydays to the late 1800's to deliver supplies to settlements upstream and returned loaded with wool and wheat. When the railroads opened up the territory by 1890, the paddle steamers ceased as a popular mode of transportation. Nowadays a few remain for leisure cruising on the Murray yet Australia still has the largest range of active paddle steamers in the world.

Naturally on each cruise you'll receive a mixture of information on river history, folklore, environmental information, free time to chat, relax and much more. Some longer cruises allow you the opportunity to get off the boat and experience Aboriginal culture, shearing exhibitions and other tours to learn, engage and explore the local region. You can enjoy local walks at some of the historic towns or cliff top climbs.

Back on board while the rugged and beautiful world of the Murray River landscapes slowly pass you by, you'll stay in comfortable and clean cabins on overnight accommodation for the longer cruises. Most cruises offer meal and food options. Short river cruises may offer you light snacks or cafeteria style food, while the longer overnight cruises offer great dining with food that is professionally prepared (and yes you can even experience Vegemite if you want one of Australia's great challenges).

One of the greatest things you'll take away from your Murray River cruise is an appreciation of the Murray's abundant beauty and intrinsic value to Australia's culture and meaning. Aboriginal occupation of the region in some parts dates back over 40,000 years. There are opportunities for guided indigenous walks, where guides talk and showcase the importance of the land and their relationship with the river. You'll enjoy the dreamtime story as different Aboriginal tribes and clans offer their stories of the land and river. The stories connect you to their ancient culture and give you a deep insight to the need to protect Australia's most important river.

Still not sure you're going to have a great time?

As you sit back and absorb one of the world's most incredible and diverse river systems you can watch the captain slowly guide the boat around the myriad of river bends. Each bend unfolds a new view, new landscape and new secret that will keep you guessing and wondering. But the biggest question you may have is "will the captain let me drive?" now that would top off your Murray River "no worries" cruising experience!

Murray River  - Australian Pink Salt 

Gourmet australian salt flakes - the world's lightest salt.

"Amazingly, incredibly, splendidly flavored"

The Taste of Australian Murray River Salt 

The internet chef loves these pink slat flakes..

"Amazingly, incredibly, splendidly flavored !! "

What is Gourmet Salt? 

The award winning murray river gourme t salt fla kes are a wonderful delicate peach color combined with mild flavour and flaky texture., murray river pink salt is considered even more delicate than the world famous and renown  french fleur de sel . .

These fragile & light salt crystals melt quickly and evenly; perfect as a finishing salt as the flakes dissolve readily on food. 

The pink salt - high in minerals which gives it a pink champagne tinge - has won numerous awards and is popular with foodies and chefs across the globe.

No self-respecting restaurant table, particularly in Australia , would be without it.

Where does Murray   River Salt come from?

Sunset on the Murray River, South Australia

This exceptionally pristine pink salt flakes are produced by the  Murray River Salt Company.

The Murray River Salt company is based in the river side town of Mildura in the state of Victoria Australia and began producing premium gourmet salt flakes in 2000.

The Murray River itself rises in the Australian Alps and forms part of the 3,750 km(2,330m) long combined  M urray-Darling basin . 

The basin, which drains around one-seventh of the Australian land mass, is one of the most significant agricultural areas in Australia.

Murray River Salt products' have a cult following from within the gastro word, this being a far cry from its humble beginnings from a dot on the map in Victoria's Mallee district.

 How are Murray River Salt Flakes made?

The salt is produced naturally from underground brines which have been laying dormant for thousands of years in the Murray Darling Basin.

As this pristine ancient water has been trapped underground, it  has never been exposed to the elements. 

And with the basin's low rainfall and high evaporation, salt concentrates in the underground saline waters ensuring the purest of natural flavor.

The Murray River Salt company tap down beneath the dry Australian surface and pump the naturally occurring underground saline water up to the surface. 

Once above ground the salty water, brine , is left in ponds to evaporate and crystallise over summer and then harvested, washed, dried and packaged.

Murray River Salt is produced from ancient saline waters sourced from underground aquifers found in Australia’s Murray Darling Basin region.

Features of murray river salt flakes, the distinctive features of murray river salt is the high speed at which it dissolves on your tongue with a distinct sweetness..

Flakes of Sea Salt

Having flake-like qualities, it dissolves slowly in your mouth, the full flavour gradually evolving on your tongue.

The Pink Salt Flakes  have a fresh taste with an attractive champagne hue; ideal for crushing at the table.

These large, easily dissolved flakes, are gentle tasting and best sprinkled on food at the end of cooking or placed on the table.

Murray River general manager Leighton Schmidt says,

"The pink salt tricks the mind into thinking it's melting on the tongue because it has a larger surface area than other salts, so it travels along the full length of your taste buds."

"It's almost a sweet salt and that's to do with the minerals in it ."

Why Is Australian Salt Pink?

The pink color is a combination of both the mineral content and the algae (which doesn't sound very appealing, but it's true)., what is the difference between salt and pink salt, murray river salt & mineral content, the  high mineral and trace element content  of murray river salt is the result of centuries of rainfall filtering through ancient rocks and settling into large underground aquifers..

The Murray Basin has mineralized brines and these brines load the ancient pure salt with natural minerals and elements such as magnesium and calcium.

Carotene is secreted from the salt tolerant algae within the brine.

And this carotene, which is a by-product from the algae,  gives the flakes a pink hue - a very light peachy colour. Murray River Salt Flakes are a quick and delicious way to boost the nutritional content of your diet.

Health Benefits of Murray River Salt 

Rich in Naturally Occurring Trace Minerals

Sydney nutritionist Zoe Bingley-Pullin from Good Chef Bad Che f , contends that less processed salts (such as Murray River salt) are preferable to refined salts as they are closer to the natural state and offer higher mineral content.

• “It is essentially a case of whole foods versus processed foods. It’s always preferable to eat foods in their raw & natural state.
• The refining process that table salt goes through removes the beneficial trace elements,” she says.
• Unlike other sources of salt, Murray River Gourmet Salt flakes are minimally processed and therefore rich in naturally occurring trace minerals including magnesium, calcium, potassium and iodine.
• A delicate balance of minerals alongside sodium is required for optimal health.

Murray River Salt vs Himalayan Salt 

Himalayan rock salt is mined.

Himalayan Rock Salt is mined using conventional mining methods and with the associated environmental impact which includes land disturbance and greenhouse gas emissions.

Murray River Salt Flakes are evaporated from naturally-saline groundwater resources.

• Himalayan Rock Salt is a Finite Resource

Himalayan Rock Salt is a non-renewable, finite resource estimated to have formed 800 million years ago.

Despite estimates that salt reserves are in the millions of tonnes, once this resource has been depleted, it will be gone. For good.

This contrasts to sustainably-sourced and produced Murray River Salt Flakes, which are extracted from a renewable resource.

• Both Himalayan Rock Salt and Murray River Salt Have Trace Minerals

Much of the appeal of Himalayan Rock Salt comes from the fact that it contains trace minerals like sulfur, magnesium, potassium and calcium that just aren’t present in highly refined and processed table salt.

Here’s the thing though…… Murray River Salt Flakes are bursting with all these minerals too!
