Trail your feet in the cool waters of the Breede River, while toasting the good life with a glass of Viljoensdrift wine on board their elegant flat-bottomed river boat named Uncle Ben 2.
The approximately 1 hour-long meander along the river, flanked by indigenous Breede River Yellowwood and Wild Olive trees teeming with a variety of bird species, sets the scene for a leisurely riverside experience. Fill your picnic basket to the brim with sumptuous fare from our deli and enjoy your picnic during your trip down the river. What better way to spend a laid-back afternoon with family and friends?

Wonderful setting for friends and acquaintances to explore the packed pick nick baskets, enjoy one another's companies, as the beautiful Breede River and its scenic backdrop glide past. Excellent, friendly service provided by the experienced staff. - JP
The cruise was well organized and on time. We thoroughly enjoyed our 50 minutes on the river. The river and surroundings were beautiful and calm and the day out was worth every cent. The picnic goodies and mimosas purchased were lovely and added and extra touch to the cruise. - Ingrid
Pragtige uitsigte en baie vriendelike personeel. Beveel aan vir almal om die riverboot uitstappie te doen. - Amanda
I was not part of the cruise, but I organised it for this group of 41 people. Their feedback to me was extremely positive and it was one of their highlights during the 3-day stay in Robertson. Thank you for the exeptional service. - Renate
