We could not have asked for a better table view!!! We were greeted with smiles and friendly assistance. We departed as timed. The meal was good and good service.!! We had Erin as our waiter and he was friendly and patient!! We returned on time but was offered to delay out departure if we desired to second drop off. The sights were awesome!!! Couldn't have a better seat to see Sydney!!! I would highly r recommend Harbor dinner cruise!!'

Perfect experience in Sydney. A must-do for tourists and locals. We had beautiful weather for our sunset cruise. Plenty of photo opportunities on the deck in front of the harbour bridge or opera house. Dinner was lovely. Be sure to get a window seat for best viewing. Totally recommended!
Darlene_S, Mar 2026
No beef on menu even with the premium price point.
Food was good, music was pleasant.
No sun for us a cloudy day. But still a wonderful experience.
CAROLINE_H, Mar 2026
It is a very pleasant relaxing time with good food and lovely staff.Check in easy lovely waitress called Catalina looked after us
Janet_J, Mar 2026
We did the premium so got a window seat on top floor. Views are wonderful even though it was cloudy. Food and service were top notch. It’s a two-hour cruise so we would not have seen sunset if it hadn’t been cloudy.

The food was delicious and I really enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Sydney Harbour, the music was so delightful as well.

Sold as a sunset dinner harbour cruise.

For a cruise to be described as a sunset cruise it needs to occur at the same time as sunset. The beautiful sky presented on the page advertising the cruise may occur but you'll be back a the wharf before it happens.
The timing of sunset must come as a massive suprise every day.
Food was very good, service was excellent, but don't expect a romantic sunset during the cruise.
Lily_H, Mar 2026

Our table location was perfect. The staff was excellent.
Kathy_S, Mar 2026
Purchase window seating. Dinner was pretty tasty. Staff was excellent. If longer than 2 hours is offered that would be great.
Thomas_C, Mar 2026
Excellent harbor cruise with good service and good food.
They should make the cruise longer, like 3-4 hours instead of just 2 hours. Felt rushed and did not get a chance to see more of the boat or go outside.

Nice to celebrate your birthday and take amazing pictures of the harbor and opera house. The views are amazing!
Valenciadeb, Feb 2026
The boat was big and clean like having dinner on a yacht. The food was pretty good. The experience was awesome. Plenty of places to step out on deck and take beautiful pictures. The only thing I would say is be aware of the time we chose at 5 PM no sunset. The sunset didn't set till after we got off so make sure you pick the right time. It's not the sunset cruise if it ends.at 630 P

Sells out quickly. There are 2 departure terminals . I notified in advance that I have food allergies and the chef prepared my meal to meet my needs.

Nancy_K, Feb 2026
This was one of our favorite tours in Sydney. Amanda was a great tour guide and we learned the history of the Opera House and how it was constructed.
John_T, Feb 2026
Great food and amazing views of Sydney!
Staff were friendly and accommodating, good entertainment too.
Wish it lasted longer than 90 minutes.
Steven_M, Feb 2026
Food was on the low standard, drink orders took forever to come after being ordered before entrees and didn’t receive them until after the main course
Vicki_G, Feb 2026
The meal and sights were good but we thought there should be so.e commentary of the spectacular sights in the harbor.
christopher_g, Feb 2026
The food was average at best. You also are charged for soda. So only water is free. You do go into the harbor but you spend more time at either dock than you do in the harbor. Other than eating in the harbor I would not recommend this experience. Save your money and ride one the ferrys and then go eat at a nice restaurant afterwards. I will say the staff was the only true highlight of the trip.
Jorja_T, Feb 2026
Excellent overview of the city in this walking tour, Pete. Peter, our guide, was excellent. Very engaged with us and what we were interested in. We highly recommend him.
cynthia_j, Feb 2026
This was an outstanding experience. The dinner cruise provided an outstanding view of the harbour and a great dinner to enjoy as you took in the beautiful city skyline. If you have the opportunity to take the dinner cruise, it’s well worth it.
Jill_R, Feb 2026
The food was delicious and the views of the harbor were spectacular!
The amount of time the cruise took was ideal!
David_P, Feb 2026
Good food and service, felt a bit rushed. We did the 5:00, the 7:30 would be better as more of a sunset would offer better views.
Ken_P, Feb 2026
Cruise is exactly as it promises. Dinner was exceptional for this cruise and views of the harbor were great.
