Business Events

When you’re running a business you might have just one opportunity to impress that new client, or create a business event that can leave a lasting impression. Whether you’re hosting a staff conference or offsite event, entertaining clients or looking for a waterfront brand activation space, a private cruise on Sydney Harbour is the perfect choice. Our range of vessels suit all budgets and our onboard catering options can be tailored to suit the design of your event. Morning, lunch or evening, don’t just settle for a waterfront restaurant in Circular Quay or Darling Harbour, choose a Captain Cook Cruises private vessel for your next floating business event.
