Testimonials

This is a very late feedback for the cruise I had on 18th August this year. It was aboard the Magistic and it was a top deck private cruise for approx. 55 of my guests. I just wanted to let you know we had a fantastic day. The staff were all very professional and accommodating for all our needs. In addition, Alex that I arrange the cruise through was really great. She was not pushy, but she was able to provide quotes, guidance and advice during the whole process. Just thought I’d let you know that we all had a wonderful time and all of my guests were very impressed with both the service they received as well as the quality of the food & wine presented on the day. Many thanks for helping make my day such a success.

Thank you, Juliana, Mark and their team for a truely perfect cruise experience. All participants were full of praise for the cruise, the boat, the views and the team. They particularly pointed out the high quality of the food and the friendly service. Many of the delegates had participated in a cruise on the Seine river in Paris last year at a conference and we all said the food on the Blue Room Glass Boat was so much better than in Paris. I think this is significant. I will make sure to refer our events team at the University to you if a cruise is to be organised in the future.

CRCC - Baptist care have taken carers of people with disability and frail aged on outing with the Magistic over the years due the demand. We had 4 this year all with positive. Thank you

Very enjoyable cruise with great staff.

Claudia was fantastic. Food was delicious. Will definitely book again.

We celebrated our Sons 21st on the Azure Deck of the Showboat and it was a great choice. Very positive experience, Thank you.

Overall, the evening was most enjoyable, the food excellent, all dietary requests filled most satisfactorily, wait staff very helpful, pleasant & efficient and all participants thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

My group loved the dinner cruise last night, enjoyed the spectacular Harbour, so thank your staff for me for a job well done.

Thank you so much for your support, not only on the day but leading up to the event, I could not have done it without you. Our team had an amazing time, your staff were fantastic and very professional. My Managing Director was so impressed with the Boat, service and overall structure of the day that he has even asked for contact details to use for future events.

Again I thank you and your team, I look forward to working with you again in the future.

Thank you for an excellent event - the delegates were all very impressed. Amanda and the team provide an excellent dinner service, and Xhad in particular was great to work with. He was very proactive, accommodating, friendly and professional at all times - a great representative for your organisation.

Our Christmas Party aboard the beautiful "Majestic Sail" was an outstanding success. The food, service and backdrop of our magnificent city, all provided a wonderful night for our staff. We all went home with great memories and beautiful photos of the city lights.

Special thanks go out to Genie Merlino, who took the stress out of organising such an event. Our Cruise Director on the night, Jordon, also did a great job in ensuring that the evening went well.

All in all, it was "smooth sailing" in all departments. We would not hesitate to book another cruise with you again.

Thanks to your company for the excellent service that you provided for our conference dinner. All the guests enjoyed themselves. I would love to recommend you to anyone who needs such a service in the future.

A special thank you goes out to you Sarah. I appreciated your help and advice to make our event such a success. With all the last minute rush, I worried that something would fall through the cracks, but you and Genie were terrific! Such a commitment to great customer service is to be commended.

I would like to thank your team for doing such a great job on board of the Sydney Showboat.

The Embassy of the Netherlands, the Consulate-General of the Netherlands and all Honorary Netherlands Consulates in Australia and PNG will definitely recommend you and your team for any corporate events on the Sydney Showboat. We had an awesome night with great people, fantastic food and excellent hospitality. Well done!

I would just like to say that we had a really good time on Monday night!!!! Everyone was so impressed with the boat, food and especially your staff they were more than helpful. So could you please pass on our thanks to your staff for making a great night into a fabulous one!!!!!!

Just a short note to say a very big THANK YOU for a wonderful evening. The whole evening went off without a hiccup and all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The CEO and all of the team invited were overwhelmed with the size of Magistic II. The weather was kind to us and all enjoyed cruising around the harbour. Everyone commented on how good the food and service was on the night. Firstly thank you for your help during the organising process and please pass on our thanks also to Gemma and all of the staff aboard the cruise on the night. I have sent via the post a CD we made of the night for you to enjoy and half a laugh….you will see we all had a very good night.

Just a quick note to say a big thank you! We had a wonderful afternoon and everything went extremely smoothly. The staff were wonderful, and the food was great! Thanks again!

I just wanted to say a big thank you to yourself and all the staff from the cruise who assisted us in the lead up to our cruise and for those who assisted on the night. We've had some overwhelmingly positive feedback and the general consensus was that it was our most successful awards night yet. Thank you again, please take care, and I hope we can secure the same event for 2012.

Just a quick thank you for a great day on the harbour last Saturday. Everything went "superbly" well and we had a ball onboard. Food excellent, service fab. What more can I say. We are so at home on the ship it is a pleasure to work with Magistic!!!

The staff were fabulous to deal with and the boat looked great. All our guests had a great time and I wouldnt hestitate to book the vessel again.

IMPULSIVE I

Bella vista, weathersfield, what our clients have to say:.

“Now for the 7th year running, we have been so fortunate to have joined the Nova Entertainment team on the annual Christmas Cruise aboard AQA. The experience on AQA is unrivalled – from the welcome as you board, to the service provided by the wonderfully skilled and friendly staff. The refreshments and food provided is always of the highest quality and the environment of being on Sydney’s spectacular harbour in an equally spectacular superyacht is one the highlights of our year. Thankyou Sydney Harbour Yacht Charter for providing the luxury and the experience.” Rosy Sullivan, CEO, Australian College of Professionals

“We recently experienced a business Christmas function aboard AQA. We have been lucky enough to have experienced this luxury cruise a few times. We again had a great time. Staff were welcoming and made us feel very special, even with the ongoing COVID restrictions. The food was top shelf and bar service was easy and always available. They also had clay pigeon shooting which was a lot of fun. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of chartering a luxury boat on Sydney Harbour, to go no further. This team have it all….One of our best experiences. “ John Hall, Nobby Kitchens

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Blueyummysmurf.

We took the 3 hour tour and saw soooo many sites. We would have easily paid a lot more for this tour for the exceptional service and experience we received.

I had a fantastic afternoon with Ellie and Zain. They gave a us lovely personalised tour. The highlight was being able to step of the boat onto a secluded beach that was only accessible by boat, for a while we were the only ones on the beach. The tea and cake provided was extra nice touch too.

My husband and I and our two daughters, ages 10 and 12, really enjoyed our afternoon tour of Sydney Harbor with SHBT! It was a great introduction to all of the Sydney Harbor sights, a tour of some of the bays (homes of the rich and famous and a naval base), and a few beach stops at beautiful national park beaches.

We had a great 3 hour boat trip with the brand new Axopar boat named Spectre. A beautiful, fast and very comfortable boat. Perfect for 8 people. The crew was very professional and serviceminded. Great service also from the office. I highly recommend this company.

The best time i’ve ever had in Sydney. I got a chance to learn more about the Australian history. Overall my experience was phenomenal

If you’re joining us on our dinner cruise, you’ll enjoy a multi-course chef-designed all-inclusive menu featuring the best of New South Wales ingredients, all of which showcase the multicultural influences on the Sydney dining scene. Pair both of these cruise menus with wines from some of New South Wales’ most prestigious wine regions and you’ve got the perfect culinary experience.

Come and experience the stunning Sydney Harbour with us. We concentrate on the little things, and that’s what makes a big difference.

Yes, although this is subject to availability. Please note, the charter will be extended based on the decision of the captain on board and payment will be processed post charter by authorised bond. Booking and Payment Can we view the boat before we book our charter? Yes, the vessel is located in Berry’s Bay and viewings are possible most days. We recommend that you view the vessel so that you know exactly what the boat has to offer and whether it is suitable for your charter.

State of the Art provides excellent protection from the elements because of its covered coach house area and clear roll down awnings that can be rolled out to cover the transom if necessary. Preparations and Arrival What do you advise we bring along for our charter? As conditions can vary on the water, it is suggested that you bring along a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, swimmers, and seasonal jumper or jacket. Please wear white-soled shoes or non-marking boating shoes. Strictly no black soled shoes or stiletto-heeled shoes, as this will damage the decking. Does our party need to get there before the set time of the charter? All your party should be at the designated pick up point at least 15 minutes prior to your charter time to allow loading of passengers and gear and to enable enough time for the skipper's safety briefing. Please note, our charter will start and finish at the times on your contract. Can one of our guests be picked up late and dropped off early from another wharf? Multiple pick up and drop off points are not recommended as this will shorten your charter time significantly. We suggest that guests wishing to join the charter late or leave early should arrange alternative transportation via water taxi at their own cost. Please ask one of the Sydney Harbour Escapes team members for a Water Taxi contact.

Soak up Sydney Harbour on a sunrise kayak tour

There’s a certain kind of magic in Sydney Harbour you can only find before the city wakes up. In the quiet before the ferries start, paddle out on a serene sunrise kayak tour with  Sydney Harbour Kayaks . Starting from Darling Harbour, you'll glide across crystal-clear waters to the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge, Opera House and  Luna Park  for a photo op, before exploring several of the surrounding bays. As the sun rises, watch the sky above the city skyline turn from lilac to peachy gold, before paddling back.

Go behind the sails of the Sydney Opera House

Feel your jaw drop as you approach the distinctive white ‘shells’ of the  Sydney Opera House  and take in the iconic building’s striking location beside the deep-blue waters of the harbour. Ascend the banked front stairs — used as a stage for artists over the years — and step inside to discover the world’s busiest performing arts centres, hosting shows ranging from opera and ballet to comedy and rock. Explore the hidden side of the working venue on an early-morning  backstage tour , while away the late afternoon sipping cocktails and watching the sun light up the  Sydney Harbour Bridge  at  Opera Bar , or savour fine dining with incredible views at Sydney Opera House’s  Bennelong  restaurant.
