Good but could have been better
Linda_G, Mar 2023
This was a dinner cruise. Tables should have had linens on them. We should have been given a choice if what we want to eat, not their choice. There should have been more of a dress code. On a positive note, the food was good.
Boat ride is good....
Stephen_M, Mar 2023
Boat ride is good. Entertainment was great. Limited menu and poor directions on digital use of beverages selection by our waiter spoiled experience some.
Beautiful Way to Spend Time

Kat_M, Mar 2023
Portion sizes were far too small I was still hungry view's were good but I saw more of Sydney from the hotel
Nice place to eat!
Susan_B, Mar 2023
The experience didn't disappoint. The service was excellent and friendly, the food well prepared and tasty. The atmosphere was very relaxing. We even experienced a thunderstorm and beautiful sunset!!
Our first visit to Sydney
Brett_T, Mar 2023
Although a set menu with expectation to share main meals, staff were happy to provide the same meal given seafood was not our favorite. Great service and although we got on at Darling Harbour we were able to get off at Circular Quay. A commentary as to what we could see would have been nice, but nice live music.
Excellent Cruise
Timothy_H, Mar 2023
The ood was delicious and views were amazing. I could easily say that I would this recommend to anyone
Stunning experience
Alana_L, Mar 2023
What a beautiful way to see Sydney while having dinner was magic Staff were efficient & a truly lovely experience
Treat yourself!
Therese_T, Mar 2023
Very well organised with seating arrangements, although it would have been nicer if the couple who decided they wanted a window seat weren't disturbing me from eating my meal.. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked, highly recommend the barramundi. Being able to get to the front of the vessel to take pictures and videos was perfect as we went under harbour bridge and travelled further than I was expecting. And whilst it was still light rather than sunset, the views, scenery and sunlight on the water were stunning and I'm so glad I treated myself to the experience.
Well worth the $
Niki_A, Mar 2023
Booking a window seat is a must for the best experience. Had 3 levels of dining plus an open deck on top. They had a 2 piece band playing while we were eating, which made it even more pleasant. The food came out fast. We ordered drinks through a app, roughly took 5 to 10min to receive. Would highly recommend this dinner cruise
Grand Sydney Harbour views

Cruise was beautiful, but...
johnkorzinski, Mar 2023
Cruise was beautiful, but we were disappointed that we were not actually out at sunset. (We started at 5:30, and returned at 7:00) We thought we would see the Sydney Opera House lit up at night. There was a later cruise that we were not aware of. The dinner was good and the pictures we took from the boat were great. Would recommend, but at the later time.
Sydney in the sun

An unimaginative and totally rote experience. Don’t bother
Steven_G, Mar 2023
An entirely perfunctory excursion. No choice of dinner offerings. Want a second dinner roll?…nope, can’t have it. No commentary on the Harbour sights. If I knew what I was looking at, I probably would be a Sydneysider and not be on the ship anyway!. No announcement about top deck viewing area.
Great music and Food!!...
Maria_D, Mar 2023

Not as described
Martin_C, Mar 2023
Definitely did not live up to the title and description . We left at 5 and returned at 6.45 which include a second stop to pick up move people. 1) the cruise was not 2 hours as described 2) we returned a full 45 min BEFORE sunset, again not as described
A great experience!
KNafe1, Mar 2023
Awesome experience! The cruise was smooth, staff was very accommodating and nice. The chicken dish was delicious!! Definitely worth the money spent and I’d do it again. The views from either side of the ship were amazing, the live entertainment was spectacular l! Not so loud that you couldn’t carry on a conversation but loud enough to be heard if you choose to. Highly recommend this for anyone.
Happy Journey
