Overview

The colours of the outback come alive at sunset as you glide down the Thomson River aboard the M.V. Longreach Explorer. After a warm welcome by our experienced crew, take your seat on the top deck ready to capture 360-degree sweeping, river and floodplain views. Our Captain will enthral you with captivating stories about the river, its wildlife and Indigenous heritage. Enjoy complimentary nibbles on board, and purchase icy cold drinks from our licensed bar.

Photo opportunities are endless, but our stop at Sunset Bend is a hands-down favourite. As we leisurely cruise back to our dock, you will see stunning vibrant sunset colours as they fade into starlight.

The sunset cruise was very peaceful, commentary was precise, and the nibbles were delicious. Well worth the time and money.

A truly wonderful cruise. From booking to pick up, cruise transfer, commentary on the cruise, nibbles and drinks, stories told and the service by our boats captain, Ash and hostess Joyce, it was all tremendous. The sunset colours were amazing. Every view on the cruise is superb and the personal attention to ensure visitors are enjoying themselves was wonderful. Sadly, we were outside the tourist season and were unable to book the cruise and dinner experience, but going by the cruise alone, I would absolutely recommend booking any of these experiences. Well worth the money! Thank you to Alan, Sue and all the staff. Our last evening in Longreach did not disappoint. You have a safe and wonderful operation. We look forward to joining in other tours when we next visit.

The boat trip was very relaxing and the guides were very friendly. Even though there was no sunset views due to weather conditions we were very happy with the cruise. We saw lots of animals and it was lovely. Thanks to Ash and Joyce for their company.

Pretty basic trip up a muddy river with nothing much to see. On our particular night there was no sunset due to weather.
