Rare westcoasttech Posted July 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2019 When I was planning this trip I could find very little info about the Murray Princess. I’m not really in a position right now to write a full length review, but will post a few pics just in case there is any one looking into booking it. The bottom line is I loved it! I did the 3 night route B2B with the 4 night to make a 7 night cruise, but that did mean that I repeated some of the route. It was very different to anything else I’ve ever done and very relaxing. I was the only non-Aussie on the 1st part and on the 2nd part there was a total of 3 non-Aussies. I met some lovely people on-board and the crew was amazing! I’d love to do it again some day! I’d be happy to answer any specific questions for any one heading down under. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh1959 Posted July 17, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Thanks for the great photos. I am from Melbourne, Australia and am reasonably ashamed to say that I know very little about this cruise. It would be wonderful if you could come back when you have more time and give us a little review. Glad you enjoyed yourself, did you travel during our winter? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh1959 Posted July 18, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I had a look at the website last night, and it seems quite expensive. For the top level cabin for a four night cruise it was over $2000 AUD, which is an awful lot of money. There don't appear to be any private balconies. There don't appear to be any drinks included, other than tea and coffee. $4000 per couple for 4 nights is a lot but I will wait and hope that a trip report is forthcoming that might justify the price. As an example we are paying $10000 for our 7 night Rhine cruise with Scenic in October, but that is totally all inclusive and in a Junior Suite. This is exactly why we tend to always travel overseas, holidays in Australia are very expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Thorny Posted November 29, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 29, 2019 My wife and I are considering The Upper Murray 7 night cruise in May 2020. Anyone been on this cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Thorny Posted December 11, 2019 #9 Share Posted December 11, 2019 We are now booked in for May 8, 2020. Any further information or experiences would be greatly appreciated. How squeezy are the “outside twin share” cabins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
