About

Hop aboard and travel from Morgan to Mannum on the PS Marion, the world's oldest paddle steamer with accommodation. A fully restored heritage vessel built in 1897, the Marion was recommissioned in late 1994 following her restoration by a dedicated team of volunteers who contributed many thousands of hours to this project. Being one of the last steam driven, wood fired, overnight passenger carrying side paddle steamers in the world, she stands now as a testament to their enthusiasm and dedication. PS Marion continues to be maintained and crewed by volunteers. All meals are included, with most being served and enjoyed onboard. On your first day cruising, experience the majestic Murray River cliffs and wild birdlife and meet fellow travellers. Wake up to the stillness and sounds of the river after a memorable night's sleep on board in your private heritage cabin. Visit Blanchetown, which is nestled on the cliffs of the Murray and features two bridges spanning the expansive waterway. All coach transfers included.
