It was good, food was good. We were supposed to go on the paddle wheel boat but were changed to the glass view boat, it was ok but missed the vibe that the paddle wheel boat has.

We could not fault this experience. The boat is out on the water for 2.5 hours and the scenery of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House are visible for 90% of that time. The food was exceptional in our opinion although there is no choice, you get what they have cooked. The room was full, there was not a spare seat, but we still found the space comfortable enough to have a private conversation. The show was better than we expected. The singer was good and the performances and their outfit changes were impressive considering the space and time they had out on the water. All in all, we did some great trips while in Australia, but this was one of the most memorable of them all. Thankyou!

Great dinner show on a beautiful paddle boat, to do when you're in Sydney. 3 hours of taste and visual pleasure, we had an excellent evening.

We had a memorable evening combining dining, live entertainment, and iconic harbour views. The cabaret show, featuring dancers and singer were spectacular, fun, and engaging for a wide range of audiences. We were allocated into Clearview glass boat cruise and it was just amazing experience. The customer service and food were amazing and presentable. One disadvantage was that we booked 2 people as a couple but we both are not able to have chicken only as main meal. We were told one person has to take chicken and one person has to take grilled fish which was very disappointing 😞 Hope this can be looked into because some people doesn't like fish.

My son and I really enjoyed the city views, dinner cruise, and shows — especially in Sydney. It was an amazing and spectacular performance. The time flew by; three hours passed without a moment of boredom
