A wonderfully delicious and memorable evening dinner cruise! - This was one of the loveliest evening dinner cruise experiences we have ever had. The food was absolutely delicious as were the wine pairings and the scenery and photo opportunities were wonderful as was the staff service. All in all I would highly recommend this dinner cruise!!

Toast to Sydney Harbor - The ship has great view windows from all tables. The food is excellent and paired well. Pours are generous. Our waiter Vasel, was wonderful. Attentive and very personable. This was a great way to celebrate our time in Sydney.

Sydney Harbour food and wine cruise - A wonderful evening, the food and drinks were spaced out so that you were not rushed, the views at night were brilliant. The only thing would be if you don’t like wine buy the package that gives you the open bar, a great evening and ideal if you want to enjoy food and drinks in a relaxed environment with amazing views

Amazing Vivid Sydney Penfolds Dinner Cruise - We booked this dinner cruise due to the Penfolds pairings and it did not disappoint. We had hearty pours of lovely wine with each course and our wait staff was quick with refills any time glasses were empty, to include the higher end wines such as the St Henri served with our steak (filet mignon) course. All of the food was quite good as well and the portions were large enough that we felt full but not so large that we wasted a lot of food. We were upgraded from the normal boat to the Jackson, which had an elegant feel, and the live music and magical lights of Sydney Harbour during Vivid added to the lovely ambiance. All in all an outstanding evening for a quite reasonable price given the quality and quantity of all that was included.

10/10 from me 🍷 - The Food and Wine was delicious, however Ankit has to have a special mention for his professional mannerisms and etiquette. I truly didn’t feel like I was dining alone. My fellow diners were wonderful as well. Thank you for a memorable evening, Olivia

Great food, attentive staff, wonderful evening. - We made reservations for the Penfolds Dinner Cruise not knowing that it was a wine tasting AND dinner. What a terrific experience! From the moment we went on board to the moment of disembarkation, our every need was attended to by our waitress and hostess. The meal was expertly prepared. My steak was cooked to perfection. And you cannot beat the views from the dinner ship as we slowly glided in Sydney Harbor.

Was ok but very quiet! - Whilst enjoyable not as good as in previous years. We were surprised how few diners there were. Food was mostly ok as was the service. It lack atmosphere, even the live entertainment appeared to give up part way through!

Not at all what we expected - We booked a gold dinner evening cruise with a window seat. We had to pay 30 Australian dollars extra for a window seat, despite there being free tables, which was soo embarrassing everyone was looking at us as if we were trying to get something for nothing when all we wanted was what we had booked. Also the boat was large and seemed to have guests on all sorts of different dining/drinking experiences. Not at all restful or romantic. Would not recommend
