The History of APT Cruising

In the northern suburbs of 1920s Melbourne, cable tram drivers went on an extended strike. Bill McGeary, a 24-year-old mechanic, seized the opportunity and converted his much-loved truck into a bus in order to transport commuters from the tram-starved suburb of Northcote to the tram and train terminus in Clifton Hill. This was the birth of McGeary’s Parlour Coaches.

In the years following, Bill grew his business with the help of his family and began offering conducted day tours and themed weekends. During the 1970s, the company was renamed Australian Pacific Touring and moved beyond its traditional coach touring to include luxury train and cruise ship travel. But it wasn’t until 2005 that the river cruise line we know and love, APT Cruising, was established. For over 15 years, APT has been offering guests a memorable way to discover the rivers of the world.
