We really enjoyed our 2 hour Whanganui River Cruise aboard the coal-fired steam-powered paddle boat Waimarie. Recommended! Watch out for soot.

Looks like a really enjoyable cruise! Beautiful scenery, and paddlesteamers are always fun 😊

@jayeless The Whanganui River is quite beautiful. It'd be interesting to go a whole lot further up.
