A relaxing day on the river with good food and wine
Jennifer_G, September 2026
It was delightful to sail upstream away from the city centre on the scenic Swan River. The wine tasting and lunch platters were delicious. We enjoyed our time onshore at Mandoon Estate, indulging in a unique wine and macaron pairing. On the return journey, sweets, tea, coffee and more drinks were available, and there were also lovely vocal performances by crew members. Many thanks to our crew Ethan, Joy, Finley and Ayisha for making this a great day out!
Response from the operator · SeaLinkWA That is so great to hear Jennifer, sounds like you had a great day out with us onto the Swan Valley. And we will be sure to pass your feedback onto our talented and professional crew too!
