Melburnians appreciate polite and relaxed behaviour, so keep noise levels reasonable during the cruise. Tipping is not expected on sightseeing cruises, but rounding up or leaving a small tip for exceptional service is appreciated. Respect other passengers' space and seating arrangements.

New Year's Eve fireworks are often visible from the Yarra River with special cruise departures, Melbourne Grand Prix season brings increased riverfront activity and events, and Christmas period cruises may feature festive decorations and themed commentary.
