We had such an amazing time!We had 34 people on board for our 35 year since graduation Veterinary school reunion.The setting was truly fantastic. Cruising along the majestic Murray River with the gumtrees highlighted by the lights of the boat, and the watery so mirror smooth that you could see every reflection just perfectly was an awesome experience. We loved the setup of the MV Maryann upstairs, giving us the choice of being outside on the deck or inside in the warmth. The food was absolutely outstanding! It's not often that a menu resonates with every person, but every person on that boat commented to me how superb their meals were. My scallops in their shell sitting on the pork belly was...
A dinner cruise left us all very disappointed. Food was served on cold plates leaving the food cold, risotto was gluggy with cheese that had solidified due to the cool temperature, and the steak (which was tender) was sitting on cold mash. There was a selection of three desserts but after ordering we were advised there was only two as the chef had forgotten to bring one on board. Everyone in restaurant was so cold they had full winter coats on for the whole meal, and a hens night was booked alongside a family & other guests, very inappropriate. Service was poor with our dirty plates remaining on the table for 30 mins after we had finished while the staff chatted with each other. The owners h...
On a recent caravan holiday from sunny QLD, the M.V Mary Ann was recommended to us as a great place to have lunch. We were not disappointed. Not only was the location beautiful, the food was exceptional!!!The presentation was a work of art, & the taste was as good as you would find in any fine dining venue.The staff were so friendly & obliging. In fact there are not enough superlatives to praise this very enjoyable experience.This outing is one of the enduring memories from our visit to the cooler southern states.
We had been on the M V Mary Ann for an evening meal and enjoyed it very much so decided to try their lunch menu. As with the evening cruise, the meals were excellent, the crew very friendly and accommodating and of course, the scenery from your floating restaurant is far better than from any static venue. Although it doesn't have the atmosphere of the paddle steamers, being enclosed yet large windows all around, it is an all weather experience. We will certainly be doing it again.

Our big family group took an evening cruise on Easter Sunday and were really looked after by the crew and kitchen staff during our cruise. The meal was delicious and catered for all ages. Wine was available at reasonable prices. Not sure how much of the river was accessible at this time of year - we coasted up and down quite a few time during our meal - but it didn't really matter. Daytime (free) cruise was also fun - good choice of light meals available too.
We took the breakfast cruise on the MV Mary Ann which left at 10.30am on Sunday, a pleasant journey down the Murray. The breakfast was great, fresh and inviting. The staff were very friendly and nothing is a bother. The riverboat has had a major overhaul. Its a lovely and very clean. Highly recommended for all types of visitors!
Visited friends in Echuca who took us for Sunday breakfast on the MV Mary Ann. A great breakfast that fills you up, good coffee plus a free one hour cruise up the Murray as well!A good way to get a glimpse of what Echuca offers if you haven't a lot of time; you also get to see the paddlesteamers and the old wharf.
My husband and I enjoyed a relaxing lunch aboard the MV Mary Ann's free cruising cafe. The meals were great and the service was good. The views of the river are beautiful. Love that there is no rush to get off the boat.

Cruise free was a great deal with the purchase of coffee and cake or a meal. Food was wonderful and reasonable priced. Staff were very friendly and attentive. We had a lovely relaxing time cruising down the river
Very good pizza. Just wish they were open a little more often, especially on weekends. Great staff!
