Murray River Trails Quotation Marks
I loved all of it, as each day was distinctly different from the other so it’s hard to pick just one highlight. Our guides were knowledgeable and passionate about the River, its history and purpose. And they were always willing to stop and take interest in our questions.

I would like to thank the team at Murray River Trails for their attention to detail piecing together a remarkable journey and a wonderful experience of wilderness, food, wine/brandy, and history of the Riverland. We loved it.
Heath, October 2020, SA
We loved our river guide arriving each morning after breakfast to help us find our next spectacular location, this is the escape we all needed. Truly peaceful and I read 2 books!
Kathy, July 2019, NSW
I appreciated the care and attention the guides gave us in so many ways - catered to my special diet. I felt safe, comfortable to ask questions and nothing was too much trouble. The history of this area was re-discovered.
Wendy, July 2018
Couldn't speak highly enough of the guides knowledge, care for clients and the ability to change sections of the walk to be more appropriate for the weather and walkers needs and comfort.

This was such a wonderful experience for me. Our guides passion and knowledge was a huge part of my enjoyment. The attention to detail made me feel safe when doing things I’d not done before. The food and accommodation was way above what I had expected.

Margaret, May 2018
Immersion in the Murray – the best way to learn about our precious river system while still being able to relax and ‘be at one’ with nature.
Gemma, May 2019
It was a wonderful trip. Passionate guides, contrasting landscapes, great food & wine. Beautiful and comfortable houseboat. It was exactly the activity, rest and relaxation I needed. A treasured trip.
Natalie, May 2018
There are some places where you could easily sit & stay forever. Whether walking with a still mind or conversations with like- minded people, I felt a sense of meaning & a real sense of place. We will forever hold the memories and associations from our 4 days on this broad and noble river. Exploring is one of the best ways of exercising the mind and walking travels both terrains.
Karen, July 2018
I was enthralled by the landscape, the colours, the bird life, so skillfully pointed out to us by the lead guide. Coming from New Zealand this walk is a great contrast. Walking along the riverbank, with scenery of the different types of gums identified, the sound of branches snapping underfoot, and of bird life it was truly wonderful. I highly recommend this walk for the contrasts, the foods and the wonderful experience of the Murray River wilderness, with the warm, friendly, knowledgeable guides, who shared their passion for it with our group of 10. Get your boots on, this walk will get you into the open, beautiful wilderness of the Murray River environment.
