It is essentially the same cruise but in reverse, with all the benefits of the Southbank departure. It is a return trip to Newstead that is discounted due to its slightly less convenient location compared to Southbank but it is still in the Inner Northern Riverside area. It may be more suitable for people staying closer to the airport or guests who live closer to Newstead.
