This cruise combines the serenity of the river with insightful commentary on its natural environment and history, making it a must-do Tasmanian experience. Some highlights of the Leven River Cruises include scenic beauty, wildlife sightings such as diverse birdlife and sea eagles, historical insights shared by the crew, and an intimate, personalized experience due to the small passenger capacity of the Jus'Leven.
