What To Expect

Make your way to Circular Quay where you board your 52-foot (16m) motorized cruiser for a private luxury experience through scenic Sydney Harbour. Take your pick from three tour options: a 2-hour morning tea cruise, a 4-hour lunch cruise, or a 4-hour sunset and dinner cruise. Your tour ends with return to Circular Quay.

2-Hour Morning Tea Cruise: As your private cruise sets out on Sydney Harbour, sip your choice of tea, coffee or juice as the sights of Sydney come into view. Listen to your host’s fascinating commentary on Sydney’s history and favorite spots as you cruise past the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and other coastal highlights. Snap photos of the sights and your friends as you enjoy the luxury outing on your private cruiser. 4-Hour Afternoon Lunch Cruise: See the sights of Sydney including the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and more with plenty of time to explore the harbor on your private Sydney Harbour cruise. Relax on deck while your crew cooks up a 3-course Australian barbecue lunch served with local beer and wine. Your captain also shares secluded locations around the harbor where you can try your hand at fishing, anchor near a beach to take a swim, paddle around a sheltered cove in kayaks, or simply enjoy chatting with the captain. Have four hours to enjoy this private cruise, where you experience Sydney from the comfort of your own private boat. Your crew makes sure you are entertained and informed as you travel through the waters off of Sydney. 4-Hour Evening Sunset Dinner Cruise: Catch the sunset from Sydney Harbour on your own private cruise from Circular Quay! Get to see the sights as in the tours above, plus enjoy the beauty of the twilight hours as the sun sets over Sydney Harbour. Tuck into a freshly prepared 3-course Australian barbecue dinner while looking at the twinkling lights of the city. See the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and more bathed in evening’s light. An expert crew shares stories about this lovely city and its maritime world on your 4-hour evening private tour.

it was an amazing experience! Many thanks to the whole team: John, Samy and Alvan for this ride. John our guide spoke slowly which allowed us to understand, admire the view and take beautiful photos. We had something to snack on, it was a wonderful experience, I recommend!
Great private or quasi-private tour!

Super human-sized cruise throughout Sydney Bay, there were only 6 of us in all and Captain Semi and his colleague Jon took the time to explain to us every corner of the bay (which is very big!) The tour lasts 2 hours and we are served coffee, tea, drinks, typical cupcakes And a snack: cheese, fruit. Go there with your eyes closed, finally... open them anyway to admire this beautiful bay.
Luxury tour of Sydney Harbour was fantastic!

Great way to see Sydney Harbour. Graham & Semmi expertly operated the boat and grilled up an excellent lunch. Despite somewhat gloomy weather it was a comfortable ride and we enjoyed learning about the harbour & its many celebrity homes along the shore. Definitely recommend!
An interesting tour.
