Below are what other guests had to say about their experience with Murray River Trails.
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.
Although I thought I knew about the Murray, it was the feet on the ground experience that really provided the emotional knowledge. I feel privileged to have been with such passionate advocates for scientific based management of this precious resource.
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.
We appreciated the depth of knowledge of the region and know much more now of the nuances of the River and its surroundings.
My favourite part was being exposed to the fascinating and diverse land forms, flora and fauna of this amazing ecosystem. I am constantly amazed at the river itself and how it has supported not only the wildlife but human settlement for more than 40,000 years.
We did not know what to expect but certainly an enjoyable experience all round. I now understand much more about the Murray Basin and it’s complexities.
We have lived and worked along the Murray Valley for a large part of our lives but we added a whole new dimension to our experiences on your River Murray Walk. It truly was amazing from start to finish – the knowledge and enthusiasm of our guides and the attention to detail with everything from the locally sourced food and wines to some unique stunning scenery. We can’t thank you all enough for what was a memorable 4 days.
Loved it all, especially the early morning sunrise walk. Watching the pelicans regally swimming past the houseboat was just great. Our guides were absolutely fantastic, efficient and respectful. The whole trip was just great and everything seamless and well organised.
It was all amazing but my favourite part was our sunrise walk and all standing together as the sun came up with a hot cuppa. Everything about this experience was world class. Our talks were so informative, the food was out of this world and our guides are three beautiful people.
Having travelled on the river in a houseboat I thought I had experienced the river, however this walking/boat trip showed me the interaction between the land, the river - they are part of each other.
An extremely high-quality product – from initial contact to completion of the walk there is a pride and professionalism, great team work and an impressive level of organisation involved. Thank you all so much. It was a real privilege to experience and thoroughly enjoy the Murray River Walk.
Truly excellent experience. The combination of activities was very well planned and reflected the teams absolute passion for the Murray River, its history and local produce.
