Lady Jane Franklin II is a beautifully appointed vessel with every facility to make your cruise enjoyable and comfortable. With two guided shore excursions, knowledgeable guides ensure your experience is interesting and informative.

We've designed everything for your pleasure and comfort - there's allocated seating, a play area for children, interpretive facilities including maps, photographs and guidebooks and plenty of deck space to enjoy the freshest air in the world.

On the main deck of the Lady Jane Franklin II you can select from two seating styles - atrium and window seating. All are forward facing, spacious and comfortable. Wherever you sit, Lady Jane Franklin II's floor to ceiling windows give you superb views of rainforest and river, mountains and harbour. Enjoy a chef prepared buffet lunch with all day tea and coffee provided.

The premium option is the Captain's Premier Upper Deck. This is your luxury sightseeing experience, with leather seating, a private viewing deck, and a dedicated nature guide. Indulge in a chef prepared gourmet lunch of local delicacies including seafood, Tasmanian cheeses and other regional specialties, with complimentary Tasmanian wines and premium beers. A courtesy transfer is also available for passengers to and from your Strahan accommodation.

Departing at 8.30am with a 2:15pm return allows further discoveries around Strahan. The Lady Jane Franklin II also departs for an afternoon cruise during peak season.

To truly experience this wild river, during the summer the Gordon River Paddle, a full day signature experience combines a guided sea kayak trip further into the reaches of the Gordon River with a cruise on the Lady Jane Franklin II.
