YOU can celebrate the festive season with a relaxing holiday along the Murray River on Captain Cook Cruises seven-night Christmas Cruise departing December 23.
Alternatively, a three-night New Year's Eve cruise departs December 30.
The Christmas cruise features a traditional Christmas lunch, a range of festive-themed activities and games, carols, egg nog, and, of course, a visit from Santa with presents for everyone.
The New Year's Eve cruise includes a spectacular New Year's Eve dinner hosted by the captain and officers complete with music, dancing and fun.
In between the celebrations it's full steam ahead down the mighty Murray as travellers discover Australian history, culture and wildlife on the newly refurbished PS Murray Princess, a modern replica of the paddlewheelers that cruised the river in the 1800s.
Fares start from $2098 per person twin share for the Christmas cruise and from $1016 per person twin share for the New Year's Eve cruise.
