The ultimate luxury holiday might be closer to home than you think.

One of Australia’s most beautiful natural vistas is right under your nose, here in South Australia’s Murraylands – and with Wow Houseboats, you and your friends or family can see it in style.

Aboard Wow Factor, you’ll explore the tranquil beauty of the River Murray, with easy access to top-notch food and wine destinations, plus experiences as diverse as an African safari, a hot lap on a racetrack or a skydive.

So don’t waste hours or days travelling to your holiday destination, wedged into an airplane seat.

Get down to the River Murray and skip straight to the relaxing part.

There’s a reason Wow Houseboats offers the most luxurious experience you’ll find anywhere on the river.

In every decision they make, owners Todd Dolling and Kate Byford aim for the wow factor.

That’s why Wow Factor offers 360-degree views, an eight-person spa on the rear deck, bespoke leather furniture and $1800 worth of consumables packed into the cupboards before you depart.

It’s why you’ll find eight TVs on board, Bluetooth speakers, lightning-fast internet and drop-out-proof phone reception, rowing and cycling machines to keep you fit on days when you don’t fancy a dip, and one of the quietest and most powerful generators around.

It’s why the entire boat lights up at night.

Just as importantly, though, Todd and Kate make sure your holiday can get started with ease, whether you’re an expert skipper or it’s your first time aboard a houseboat.

Their how-to videos will guide you through every step in the process, from piloting and mooring to operating the DVD players.

They can also make your journey easier by offering one-way trips – instead of rushing back to your starting point, you can cruise up the River Murray at your leisure without ever seeing the same place twice.

“Compare this to a 12-day Kimberley quest, a Perth-to-Sydney cruise, a business-class trip to London or seven days in the snow,” Todd says.

“Once you hire a chalet and all the ski gear, you don’t get any change from $15,000.

“Where else can 12 people get a similar experience for that cost?”
