We recently had the pleasure of hiring a houseboat, 'The KiwiOz' from Riverland Houseboats at Pyap via Loxton, South Australia.
It was a trip we organised in place of an overseas cruise that my parents who are in their 80’s had planned to go on earlier in the year but due to ill health had to cancel.
I did a bit of searching on the net and from first contact via emails and phone conversations with the Barry family who own and operate the boat we eventually hired, I felt a genuine friendliness with the treatment and service that we were given. The six of us set off on KiwiOz, an 8 berth houseboat that has been lovingly set up with all the facilities and comforts that we could want for.
We have all recommended to family and friends that if they are considering a memorable trip that they could not get better than time spent on KiwiOz.
Our thanks to Mary, Peter and Mathew for a wonderful week.

We would very much like to thank you for a great time and for your hospitality.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time on KIWI - OZ and the quiet cruise along part of the Murray and hope to do so again in the very near future. We would recommend this relaxing style of holiday to anyone.
Loved it and will definitely be back.

Had a wonderful 3 day holiday on Kiwi-Oz with 3 generations of our family. Beautiful quiet stretch of the river and a very nicely presented houseboat. Unfortunately fishing was not great but abundance of yabbies provided plenty of activity for kids and grandparents.
The Houseboat was very easy to handle even in the fast flowing conditions and the canoes that were arranged for us provided additional fun.
All in all a great value trip with the only problem being it was not for a longer period of time.
Regards and thanks again,
Kim Fielke
