Why We Love This Unique Experience

Adelaide Experience Gifts: Take in Adelaide’s picturesque riverside sights and enjoy a Devonshire style cream tea on a gentle 45 minute cruise down the Torrens River.

Departing from Elder Park Landing, your laidback cruise will set you up for total relaxation with comfortable seats, great views, and a full Devonshire cream tea onboard. Choose from fruit, plain, or even double chocolate scones served with lashings of clotted cream, and enjoy a complimentary hot drink on the side. As you tuck into your cream tea, you’ll be able to take in some of Adelaide’s most famous architecture, including historic Adelaide Gaol, the modern Oval sportsground, the interesting Festival Centre, and the striking SkyCity building. You might even hear some of the gibbons hanging out at the Adelaide zoo! Along the way, your knowledgeable local skipper will provide lots of tidbits about Adelaide’s history and all of the areas you pass. 

This 45 minute cruise through Adelaide is a superb day out to share with friends and makes a relaxing experience gift for birthdays.

Experience Overview:

Devonshire Tea River Cruise In Adelaide

Your purchase today will see you provided with boxed fresh scones baked locally, served with whipped cream and jam.  Help yourself to the inclusive hot beverage on board our sightseeing cruise.

Be introduced to your crew and sit back to see Adelaide from the best seat in the house, cruising along The Torrens River in the heart of the city in a heritage icon. Admire the ever-changing landscapes that line the waterways as you listen to live commentary by your Captain on the history of the area. 

Boarding is at the Elder Park Landing where you will collect your pre-packaged Devonshire Tea and be invited to take a seat wherever the view is best.

There may even be some among you that would enjoy a glass of local bubbly to wash things down so it is probably now that we should let you know that we do have a licensed bar on board. Perhaps there may be a group of you travelling together that may wish to pre-order a bottle? Honestly, who are we to judge, it's 5 o'clock somewhere right?
