A delightful, gentle cruise around Auckla d Harbour. What could be better than a lovely cruise - a lovely cruise complete with cheese and wine. The cheese, meats and crackers selection was very substantial and delicious. Captain's commentary was great. Thoroughly lovely way to spend part of an afternoon .

The tour was beautiful!...

Wanda_R, Mar 2026

The tour was beautiful! The wine and cheese was excellent ( more of a charcuterie box) However, it was difficult to hear the captain speaking

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your kind words about the tour and the wine and cheese we’re glad you enjoyed it! We’re sorry to hear it was difficult to hear the captain at times. We appreciate you letting us know and will review this to make sure future guests have an even better experience. We’d love to have you back with us again.

Seating is terrible....

Bettylynne_C, Feb 2026

Seating is terrible. Can’t look out both sides of boat. Needs more seating. Staff is inattentive to guests.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the seating layout and service did not meet your expectations. Guest comfort and attentiveness are very important to us, so we genuinely appreciate you sharing your experience. Our vessel layout is designed to maximise space and safety while still allowing guests to move around and enjoy different viewing angles, but we understand it may not suit everyone. We’ll also be speaking with our crew to ensure we continue delivering the attentive service we pride ourselves on. Thank you again for your honest feedback.

Thoroughly enjoyable and great value harbour cruise

Joanne_I, Feb 2026

Thoroughly enjoyed our harbour cruise, the commentary was informative and at times amusing. Captain went out of his way so we could watch the bungy jumper jump from harbour bridge - eek!! The wine and cheese package was top notch (mini gherkins, cocktail pickled onions, sundried tomatoes, salami, and olives also included). For the price this is a great trip!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

hank you for your lovely feedback. We’re delighted you enjoyed the harbour cruise and found the commentary both informative and entertaining. Timing the trip to catch the bungy jump is always exciting! It’s also fantastic to hear you appreciated the wine and cheese selection we aim to offer something a little more substantial and memorable. We truly appreciate your comments about the value and hope to host you again in the future.

Excellent information...

Michelle_R, Feb 2026

Excellent information from the captain and great service from the stewart. The meat and cheese box was larger than I expected. Great time!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your lovely review. We’re delighted you enjoyed the informative commentary and attentive service on board. It’s also great to hear the meat and cheese box was a pleasant surprise. We truly appreciate you joining us and look forward to hosting you again in the future.
