Clutha River Cruises


Description

This journey is on a pontoon craft, which is capable of seating 17 adults comfortably. This cruise explores the Roxburgh Gorge on the Clutha River that will take you back to the European and Chinese gold rush that happened on the banks of the Clutha River. Remains of miners cabins are hidden by Matagouri, Thyme, and spectacular schist rock. These tours give you a historic experience, which takes 75 minutes covering 50 km of the stunning Central Otago scenery. Customers can look forward to a commentary of the history of the area, with some of the focus being on places of interest such as the miner’s huts, rock shelters and of course the legendary Doctors Point Gold Mine.
