The crew was incredibly friendly, professional, and genuinely loved having the dogs aboard. They were constantly making sure all the four-legged passengers had fresh water and were comfortable.
Seeing Sydney Harbour from the water is always stunning, but sharing that view with our dog, who was having the time of his life, made it truly unforgettable. It was such a unique and relaxing way to spend the afternoon. If you're looking for a dog-friendly activity that treats your pet like royalty while giving you spectacular views, look no further. Highly, recommend this cruise! We're already looking forward to our next one
The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly, with plenty of space for the dogs to explore, sniff around, and enjoy the sea breeze. Our pup had the best time - he couldn't stop wagging his tail the entire cruise! We also appreciated how clean and safe everything felt and the views of the harbour were simply stunning.
It's such a unique and joyful experience to share a boat trip with all the dogs, and it really made for a special outing for us as a family. We'll definitely be coming back again - and recommending it to all our dog loving friends!
Also liked the it was quite an intimate experience. We had a wonderful time chatting away with the other people who were also on the boat.
Thank you for a beautiful evening Sea Sydney Harbour!
Watching the sunset over the Opera House and Harbour Bridge from the water was absolutely magical. Everything felt easy, personal, and so well-run. If you’re visiting Sydney, this is a must-do — I’d book it again in a heartbeat!
The views in Sydney harbour are brilliant and the sailing takes you round to Darling harbour which is also picturesque. Would definitely go on this trip again. Thank you to our two crew members.
The food platters were tasty, varied and plenty of choice.
Views were spectacular.
Trip was exactly the right length.
Had an amazing experience with The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. The boat was in excellent condition, and they provided clear instructions, ensuring we had a stress-free day on the water. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing boating adventure. Will definitely be back!
We recently had the pleasure of treating our relatives, who are visiting on holiday, to a harbour cruise with Sea Sydney Harbour and it was absolutely fantastic! We went with a white-themed event, and the attention to detail made the experience even more special.
From start to finish, the service was impeccable. Joana and Alex were attentive, professional, and made sure every moment was enjoyable for our entire family. The views were breathtaking, and the atmosphere on board was perfect for celebrating with our loved ones. Whether it was the delicious food, smooth sailing, or the wonderful hospitality, everything exceeded our expectations.
We couldn’t have asked for a more memorable way to show off the beauty of the harbour. This cruise has definitely set a high bar for future family gatherings!
Highly recommended!!
When we walked to our meeting point, it was incredibly frantic with ships coming and going, thousands of people looking for their tours, but the staff on shore of SSH (sorry I didn't get your names) were just wonderful and so friendly and polite - not only to THEIR patrons, but incredibly helpful to the many lost people trying to find their own tours.
Before we boarded, Captain Frank gave us a quick safety briefing then we boarded and set off - EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS TRIP WAS FAULTLESS!
The boat was beautiful, well appointed, clean and comfortable. It wasn't overcrowded like most of the other boats I saw on the harbour with plenty of room to move around and lots of comfortable seating and vantage points available.
Not long after we set off, the lovely Jules started serving the canapes - absolutely delicious! I expected crackers and cheese, maybe party pies but I did not expect the beautiful food we were blessed with - delightful dolmades, mouth watering meatballs, incredible pork sliders, everything was absolutely delicious with ample quantities available.
Captain Frank took us around the harbour at a perfect speed, he took us close to shore to all the best photo spots and then perfectly positioned us for the "Love is in the Air" drone show.
There is absolutely nothing negative I could say about this whole trip, certainly a 10 out of 10 experience enjoyed by my whole group.
I would highly recommend Sea Sydney Cruises and plan to do this same trip again next year for Vivid.
Thanks Heaven, Frank and crew. ❤️
The departure location is right near the Sydney Opera House, so if you're short on time, definitely recommend planning these into your itinerary together. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone looking to see the best of Sydney Harbour in a short amount of time. The ticket price is inexpensive and the cruise is worth every penny!
I do want to stress that this is primarily a sight seeing activity with unforgettable views that had a delicious charcuterie offering half way through it. My family of 5 absolutely loved this and can’t recommend it enough.
Good views and opportunities to photograph the bay
Minimal commentary
Food was provided - meats and cheeses and snacks
It is BYOB but the water may be rough - so be aware.
Winds can really get high so it’s pot luck
A more covered vessel may have been better
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Sea Sydney Harbour's Sunset and Sparkle Cruise, and I can confidently say it was one of the most memorable experiences I've had in Sydney. From the moment we stepped aboard the luxurious catamaran, we were greeted with warm smiles and attentive service by the friendly crew. The boat itself was impeccably clean and spacious, with plenty of seating options both indoors and outdoors.
As we glided across the glistening waters of Sydney Harbour, we were treated to breathtaking views of the city's iconic landmarks, including the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and the Royal Botanic Garden. The sunset was nothing short of spectacular, casting a warm glow over the cityscape and creating a truly magical atmosphere.
The crew provided insightful commentary throughout the cruise, pointing out hidden gems and sharing fascinating anecdotes about Sydney's history and culture.
The highlight of the cruise was the delicious gourmet food featuring an array of fresh seafood, salads, and other delectable treats. The food was not only visually appealing but also burst with flavor, making it a truly culinary delight.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, Sydney's skyline transformed into a dazzling spectacle of lights. The illuminated Harbour Bridge, the twinkling city lights, and the vibrant colors of the Opera House created a truly mesmerizing backdrop.
Throughout the cruise, the crew was attentive to our needs, ensuring that our glasses were always full and that we had everything we needed to make the most of our experience. They also took the time to get to know us, making us feel like valued guests rather than just another group of tourists.
By the end of the cruise, I felt completely relaxed and rejuvenated, having experienced the beauty of Sydney Harbour in the most unforgettable way. Sea Sydney Harbour truly exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend their cruises to anyone looking for a truly special and memorable experience in Sydney.
