The Riverboat Postman - delivering the mail for Australia Post

Brooklyn, New South Wales

Join the delivery of mail for Australia Post to the water-access-only settlements perched on the banks of the spectacular Lower Hawkesbury River. It is located right beside the Hawkesbury River train station at Brooklyn, with a direct train from Sydney Central. The Riverboat Postman is Australia's last remaining mail boat in operation and is one of the hidden gems of Sydney. Closer than the Blue Mountains, halfway to the Hunter Valley and only 20 minutes from the Australian Reptile Park at Kariong, the cruise offers a true "step back in time" experience with its old-school snail-mail delivery service to locals (and their dogs) who come to meet us on the wharves. Cruise along and take in the beautiful scenery the magnificent Hawkesbury River has to offer. This cruise includes morning tea and coffee with our famous homemade ANZAC biscuits, lunch and informative commentary throughout the cruise. Bookings essential.
