We booked for 3 hours for my son’s 9 years old birthday celebration. It was amazing, we had a great time! Highly recommended.
As my husband was unable to join us for the boat ride, I had to take my daughter out on my own. The night before, I was very worried and nervous because I had never driven a boat before. Thankfully, the friendly crew member sensed how nervous I was and kindly offered to guide me for a while until I felt confident enough to handle the boat myself. His patience and encouragement made a huge difference. It turned out to be a wonderful experience with my daughter, and I was surprised by how easy the boat was to handle. We had a fantastic time and created a very special memory together. Highly recommended!
Our GoBoat experience was phenomenal, earning every one of its five stars! Despite us being late for our weekday evening booking, the staff remained exceptionally patient and professional. They provided excellent guidance, making us feel comfortable operating the boat as we leisurely sailed along, taking in all the breathtaking Yarra River views. The superb weather just topped it off. Huge thanks to the staff for being so incredibly understanding and chill, even when we held them up – truly a memorable trip! I will give an extra star if I could!
Such a beautiful experience! Took my partner here for his birthday, brought some food, had a little picnic and we absolutely loved it! The boat was really fun and easy to drive and the staff were so friendly and lovely. Would definitely go back again with a group of friends!
The experience is once in a life time. a must do activity when in melbourne. The people working there are the most sweetest people that I met in Melbourne. 200% recommended activity.
The picnic boat is easy to control, and the staff explains how to use it very clearly. The weather is good and the scenery on the Yarra river is superb.
highly recommend to get away from the crowd of thr city.
Amazing ride. Can view the Yarra river from different angles.
worth spending on a self-drive boat experience in a lovely downtown river. beautiful gardens, stunning high rise buildings, warm-hearted people along the way.
Extremely fun thing to do! will definitely recommend but avoid the middle of the day. easy to drive but was abit scary when we are near bigger boats
