Enjoy this bistro when in Mildura. It is walking distance from where we stay and the food and bistro area is most pleasing. Usually have the steak or a fish meal (both are good) and have always been pleased with the meal. Keep returning.

A two hour tour to Lock 11 is a great way to see this section of the River Murray. Paddle Steamer Melbourne does two trips a day and it is a way to experience how travel and trade was done on the river over a hundred years ago. Young and old enjoy this trip.

Really enjoyed coming to this Pizza Cafe although I had a great pasta dish. The atmosphere is good, the meal was good and the price was good. Lovely to see The Grand Hotel still being maintained and various sections of it so well patronized.

When deciding on activities in Mildura, this information centre has it all. Volunteers who are very proud of their city offer suggestions and maps willingly. They can also book accommodation, sell souvenirs post cards etc. It is a one stop centre of ideas. Paddle steamer trips, gem shop, walks, etc are all great things to do.

This is an interesting Tourist experience for both young and old. For the young there is a maze to become lost in and for the older people a wonderful display of gemstones. Some are set into jewellery, some are loose, displays and information on the various gems are shown, and also how the gems are set into attractive jewellery. Food is available if you are peckish too. Find that an intended quick visit turns into an extended one. An unusual and interest place There is no need to purchase to make this a novel experience

This review is for Desert City Caravan Park, Mildura VIC

Enjoy staying in this park. Sites, amenities and cabins are kept up to date and the range of cabins at various prices are good. Can be very busy at holiday times so booking is a good idea. The staff go out of their way to be helpful. Ensuite sites are available as well as the usual powered sites. Recreation, swimming pool etc are there too. However as we dont use them really cant comment.

Enjoyed visiting here and tasting their shiraz which is from very old vines. It is really very nice but not the cheapest wine available. The food served here has an Italian influence and good coffee and desserts and biscuits are served too. Very enjoyable.

Really enjoyed tasting some Barossa Valley wines in this modern and impressive cellar with function and dining areas. The Riesling was to my taste but also enjoyed the other wines on offer. The location is wonderful and is an enjoyable stopping point.

This visitor centre is also on the banks of the Murray River. It is staffed by volunteers who are very happy to tell about the interesting places to visit in the Berri area. Also a cafe attached and it is very pleasant sitting and watching the river. Plenty of maps and directions available also.

This review is for Renmark Paringa Visitor Centre, Renmark SA

This visitor information centre is situated on the banks of the river murray. It has a great deal of information relating to the immediate area and further afield. The staff are friendly and helpful. They can advise if it is ok to travel east on the northern side of the river. Sometimes it is ok sometimes a little more difficult due to weather and road conditions. Good idea to check. Directions and maps are available here.
