Is a three-day Murray River houseboat trip worth adding from Adelaide?

If you want varied landscapes every day, a land-based trip may suit you better. A houseboat works best when you enjoy quiet time on the water.

Ask the operator about the route possible in three days, water conditions and what you need to bring. The experience depends heavily on the boat and season.

Treat it as a slow river stay rather than a fast sightseeing tour. Compare the boat's total hire, fuel, mooring rules and transfer from Adelaide before deciding.
