Sailing with no commentary - Very disappointing experience. The captain didn’t say anything about Auckland, the history, the Harbor, etc. He was silent most of the time. He’s a nice guy and when you ask him questions, he would answer them, but we didn’t know what to ask. One of the appetizers served had diced beet in juices. They served that without napkins in your hand and people were spilling it on them themselves. Beats of course stain clothes and I’m sure some won’t be able to get those stains out. Napkins came out too late. In the future hand out the napkins first! The chicken Caesar was terrible. The lamb was very good. Everything else served was average at best.

A very disappointing and overpriced travel experience. - In my opinion, a very disappointing and overpriced travel experience due to over crowding of the yacht (16 guests, limiting movement), the soggy canapes followed by a tasteless "dinner", which was served in a bowl. Next time in Auckland if I wish to have another harbour experience I will choose the local ferry service, which provided an excellent and cheaper service.

Robbed by unprofessional company - There was NO experience due to the fact we were left behind 👎 After contacting them to notify we were caught in traffic because we weren’t familiar with streets we were told they would wait for us but when we arrived at kiosk the boat had left, leaving the surprise 60th birthday for my partner ruined.
