Stunning sunset cruise and wonderful dinner & show - Sunset tour was nicely presented by boat driver with commentary explaining the billabong water source, pointing out birdlife, trees and the like. Cruise charcuterie board and drink offerings were good.
Dinner was delicious and generous portions with a great live music entertainment

A must do in Longreach - An awesome night out. When you visit Longreach, and yes it should definitely be on your list to visit , this is a ‘must do’.
We were collected from our van park and boarded the boat for a peaceful cruise down the Thompson River, with commentary along the way. After turning the boat we got to see the turtles that come up close for a little something to eat, and then took in the magical sunset.
Follow that with a beautiful two course meal and a show. The food was delicious, the entertainment was fun. It was as a great night. Thank you to all.
