Solo travellers can snap up some heavily discounted voyages on the Murray River.
Murray River Paddlesteamers have scrappid a 60% solo surcharge on three-, four- and seven-night cruises aboard the famous paddle steamer Emmylou, this January, February and June.
The special offer is available until January 31, or until sold out.
The 16-guest PS Emmylou starred in the hit 1980s TV mini-series All the Rivers Run, starring Sigrid Thornton, and is one of the most recognisable paddle steamers in Australia.
Powered by a restored 1906 steam engine and totally refurbished with deluxe cabins and en suites, the riverboat offers all-inclusive journeys along the Murray with stops to visit wineries, historic farm stations, indigenous sites, wildlife along tributaries and country towns.
PS Emmylou offers a range of three-, four- and seven-night cruises on the Murray from Echuca on the Victoria/NSW border.
Each cabin has a private en suite, air-conditioning, and wifi and opens directly onto the paddle steamer's timber deck.
Guests can enjoy meals on deck or in the saloon, as well as riverside picnics and a campfire dinner on the riverbank under the stars.
Each evening, PS Emmylou ties up at tranquil and remote moorings, allowing guests to experience the bush at night.
With solo surcharge removed, solo fares are available from $1800 for a three-night sailing.
Cruise fares aboard Emmylou and sister vessel Australian Star include all on-board meals, daily shore excursions, selected beers and wines with dinner and soft drinks, bottled water and tea/coffee throughout the journey as well as coach transfers during the cruise.
Emmylou’s sailings this June will be her last under her current program. Joining the Murray River Paddlesteamers fleet this winter is the brand new, bigger, five-star, overnight vessel, PS Australian Star, currently under construction.
