Float & Flow offers an unforgettable, one-night adventure along the Murray River where everything from food and drink to entertainment is handled for you. When you step on board the luxury vessel Drift, expect to be greeted with the absolute benchmark for luxury houseboats and a jam-packed itinerary of specially curated events.

Whether you’re a solo adventurer, a couple, or want to grab some friends to jump on board this event to experience a single night of adventure, it ticks all the boxes.

“We have been talking about doing an event on board Drift for a while, and this felt like the perfect time,” shared operations manager, Ally.

“There is nothing similar on offer in the Riverland. Drift is the most luxurious houseboat in the region. The Float & Flow experience includes such great collaborations with a handful of local vendors and celebrates local Riverland produce.”

Kickin off at 10:30am on Saturday, November 23rd, guests will be picked up at New Landing Way, Renmark, where they are invited to explore and familiarise themselves with their home for the night. The luxury vessel Drift, is 12 Berth with 6 Bedrooms, which combines contemporary design with an abundance of state-of-the-art facilities.

With an 8-seater heated spa, 12-seater dining table, indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces across the two levels, fully equipt kitchen, living spaces and more, plus proximity to some of South Australia’s best views and wildlife, cruising onboard Drift allows guests to fully immerse themselves in what the Murray River has to offer.

Guests will be welcomed with a cheese platter filled with local produce and tastings of gin from 23rd St Distillery. This is all to be enjoyed as you begin to cruise upstream towards the Woodshed Brewery. This is followed by a self-guided paint & sip, with local wine from Sixty Eight Roses. Once you have finished painting, spend time enjoying the stunning scenery from the comfort of the spa, or recline on the deck.

At 5pm, you are set to arrive at the Woodshed Brewery, where you will be greeted with a tasting paddle of their local brews, and enjoy a catered two-course dinner. Then dance the night away at the Brewery’s Hot Mess Fest, with Indie Rock tunes until 9pm.

“Woodshed Brewery’s Hot Mess Fest, happens to be on the same day! Guests are invited to attend the event, but if that’s not their vibe, they are more than welcome to retire to the boat.”

Spend the evening in style on board Drift, and wake up to a continental breakfast in the morning. Guests will then be transported by bus back to Renmark at 11am.

Tickets for the November 23rd Float & Flow experience are $495 per person, with limited availability it’s recommended to get in quick.

Float & Flow is a fantastic way to dip your toes into the world of luxury houseboats. The experience is perfectly curated for food and drink lovers and is a magical opportunity to sample some of the region’s finest produce. The experience removes the responsibilities that often come with hiring a houseboat. No need to think about who’s going to drive the boat or who’s on dinner duties. Instead, this is an all-inclusive experience, designed to let guests switch off entirely and relax for a day or two.

Riverfun also has plenty of other events and opportunities to explore the rest of the boats in the fleet.

“Our team take a lot of pride in making sure our houseboats are up to the highest standard possible. In the off-season, there was lots of work done to the boats both aesthetically and in the background to make sure they were of the highest quality. We also have a great customer service team and do our best to make sure our guests are always happy.”
