PS Marion One Hour Cruises – Mannum
Events Mannum, Mid Murray, South Australia
Exhibition and Shows
7 Jun 2026 Once Only Event
Experience the Murray River at the pace of a paddlewheel aboard PS Marion, one of the world’s last operational steam-driven, wood-fired paddle steamers.
Built in 1897 and still working the Murray, Marion offers you something extraordinary: the chance to travel on the same vessel, powered by the same steam engine, moving at the same pace that Murray River pioneers experienced almost 130 years ago.
What you will experience:
Watch volunteer engineers tend the working steam engine
Explore 3 deck levels
Move at paddlewheel pace where riverbirds welcome rather than scatter
Hear authentic steam whistles and feel the vessel come alive beneath your feet
