River City Cruises does cruises like no other. Operating every day of the week with tours departing several times per day. Guests get to take in the history of the lands and the city while aboard one of Brisbane’s most well-preserved icons.
The M.V. Neptune is a classic timber cruiser built in Brisbane in 1966 and has been operational on the river for over 25 years. Proudly locally owned and operated, the Neptune boasts comfortable indoor areas as well as spacious outdoor and deck areas, making the most of Brisbane’s glorious climate and sights.
Upstairs, the fully covered deck is a great area allowing unrestricted views of the passing scenery. The indoor area, or galley, has seating for 28 guests and hosts photos of Brisbane and Neptune over the years. Sit in the very front on the bow where you can enjoy a cooling breeze or have a look into the captain’s wheelhouse.
We offer locals and visitors alike a unique vantage point of Brisbane City/Meanjin from the river.
Our mission is to keep the history of Brisbane/Meanjin alive; from the original custodians of the land and the first settlers to important landmarks seen from the river.
Hop on board the MV Neptune for a magnificent tour of Brisbane by water. This remains Brisbane’s best value tour. During the cruise you will be entertained by an informative commentary that provides insight into the history of Brisbane and the River today. Enjoy an ice cold beer or wine from bar as you marvel at the historical landmarks and the homes of the rich and famous. Perfect for both locals and visitors!
