Product: great menu choices and a lovely cruise

Service: Awesome service great location great food
Product: Sufficient amount of time to enjoy

Absolutely top rate service and experience. We were treated like vips from the moment we boarded to when we hopped off.

From the moment we stepped on board everything was brilliant! I’d recommend anyone wanting a great long lunch in the most beautiful harbour in the world to book now...

Service: Friendly staff. Nice foods!
Product: Best value for money. Long lunch cruise allow me to have lots of time to entertain my guests.

Service: We both have been twice once on an evening dinner cruise . This time we had a long lunch. Boarded at Circular Quay your staff we marvellous, dressed very smart clean & professional. Lunch was very enjoyable my steak was perfect I could cut it with a plastic knife if needed it was tender.

Thank you
Product: Value for money, easy to book, very courteous.

Service: The experience was very disappointing! We were on the same "mother's day cruise" 2 years ago and we spent the entire afternoon cruising the harbour and it was great day! This year we spent most of the day docked at darling harbour 2X and Circular Quay 2X - We spent at least 1.5 hours stopped at the dock than cruising the harbour. When I asked the lady she said its not a special cruise but a normal afternoon cruise which differ from what i was told when i booked over the phone.
Product: pricey for spending the day docked at darling harbour and circular Quay

Service: Having purchased the drinks package, I thought staff didn’t come round enough to check if we needed more drinks. Also the wine glasses were very small.
Product: Dinner was better the last time I went on the Harbour Cruise. Dinner was not hot enough. Drinks not free flowing enough with the drinks package.

Service: The food was delicious,the staff (malik) young lady asian looking served us quite well.I cant remember her name but i can see the smile.The people are good.We are definitely coming back for another activity,
Product: Excellent service.The staff were very good.

Service: Penfolds gold dinner on Sydney Harbour, perfect for that special occasion- or a good excuse to have one
Product: Excellent food, matched wines and fantastic service

Service: Our dinner was fabulous.
Product: Perfect venue, perfect food.

Service: could not have been better, staff meal and quality of the boat were first class.
Product: great food, we had the drinks package and it could not have been better.

Service: Superb food, views and service. The Penfolds dinner was well worth the price, and the staff member who looked after us (if I remember correctly her name was Arina...?) was wonderful. This dinner was with my wife for our first wedding anniversary, and when Arina realised my wife is Japanese she quietly informed the piano player, who then played a Japanese classic for us to dance to - we were so touched, and that's the level of attentiveness we received the whole evening. A truly memorable experience.
Product: Delicious food and wine, and an all round memorable experience

Service: Staff was really nice.
Product: Absolute rip off. Make sure you pay the minimal amount for this.

Great food wine and service

Service: We couldn't have felt more special
Product: Gorgeous food with amazing wine and even better service

All very organised, clean and modern boat, staff helpful and friendly, nice relaxing tour.

Service: We had an excellent day, the food was very good as was the service, we also enjoyed the commentary as we floated along it was very interesting and we learnt history of Australia that we didn't know about .
Product: It was worth the expense, food was wonderful but meals could have been bigger, for a long lunch we expected a 4 course.

Service: the service was great the food was great. but we were very disappointed that the cruise only lasted 1 hour 50 minutes when we were informed that the cruise would be 3 hours 30 minutes. we did not get what we paid for.
Product: as mentioned, we were very disappointed about the length of the cruise

Excellent service, excellent food and wine, couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Service: We could not fault the full range of services provided on our harbour cruise!
Product: Great value for money and the meals were all delicious.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, our waitress was Mickey. Food was delicious and very good value for money.

Service: Food was great. Best views in the world. Ship was also great. Only thought with the drinks service, they forgot us. Only had 1 round of drinks and not offered any further. Then they gave us the bill. We finally had to ask and also ask for coffees.
Product: Great Value. Highly recommend a Long Lunch on the seas.

Service: Very attentive staff
I would suggest not presenting the bar bill 1 1/2 hours into the 3 1/2 hour cruise though
Product: Food was better than I would have expected, very relaxing

Service: We enjoyed the meal and the service. we paid more for a window seat which was well worth it.
Product: enjoyed the meal and the service. Paid more for the window seat but it was worth it. first lap around we ate our meal and the second lap we took our drinks onto the deck.

Service: The cruise was extremely well organized. The service provided by Servers and Crew was first class and the food was of high (restaurant) standard.
Product: Very pleased with the purchase

Service: My boyfriend took me for my birthday, I loved it and would recommend the long lunch to anyone. Had the best day ever. Perfect present for the young and old. Had champagne for the first time and the 3course meals were amazing. Especially the desert that was Malibu and coconut slice with a birthday sparkler along with the whole staff and other patrons all singing happy birthday. Perfect for a beautiful day on the harbour. Plus as a smoker the top deck was allowed smokers to enjoy the views of Sydney Harbour with interesting audio of the harbours history
Product: Food was amazing. Best ever 3course meal. Birthday surprise, most amazing and friendly staff. Other patrons friendly and approachable to chat with.

Service: Friends travelled and were thrilled at the experience and most definitely will spread the word
Product: Made to feel Special OWZAT!

Service: Friends travelled and will spread the word. They were delighted

They created a great atmosphere.

Service: The service was very attentive and faultless. The food was delicious and the entertainment was very nice. The view was absolutely amazing.
Product: The service was very attentive and faultless. The food was delicious and the entertainment was lovely. And the view was absolutely amazing!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and the crew were extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend the Captains Dinner cruise.

Service: Customer service could have been improved. The waiters were more busy cleaning up for later events than coming to follow up with coffee requests or drinks or whether things were oK. Need better staff training in hospitality. It was good not to have people/ tables too close. The cruise was nice. We appreciated the 3 yr old twins being invited to see the captain. It was nice to have our birthday cake delivered by staff.
Product: My husband's pasta dish had something hard, a piece of ravioli or pastry. He complained to the waitress. The children's meals were good. In general the meal was good and enjoyed. 2 guests wanted soft drinks but told there were none only juice. Disappointment for them.

Food and service was amazing!

Everything was well organised, the boat was clean the food was excellent and the service was very good.

Service: We chose the Captain Cook Cruise Long Lunch to celebrate the retirement of one of our long serving employees. The cruise did not disappoint. We were a party of 15 and the service and food were both excellent. We will not hesitate to book again in the future.
Product: The long lunch was exceptional value for money. We booked early and due to the size of the party, received a discount on the fee. There was also the option to board and disembark at two different locations which meant that people could leave at a time that suited them.

Service: It was amazing! Very professional and very caring. They even sang the Happy Birthday for me...
Product: Food was delicious and different wines were excellent

Service: Service and food was of an acceptable standard for the price.

Service was great. Meals where very good we all enjoyed what we had.
Just only thing i would complain is you need a proper coffee machine to make good coffee and cappuccino's. Its nice to finish a meal with good coffee.

Loved the dinner cruise. The food, service was good.

Very attentive

Service: Excellent service, food and wine was great, no probs there.

My only disappointment and also my fellow interstate travellers was the actual cruise, basically all you do is keep going back picking up and dropping off, I have seen more of Sydney Harbour on every other cruise I have done, no out to Watson Bay, into Rushcutters bay, nothing really, it is the actual cruise journey that lets your company down big time, it was universal that none would cruise with you again if that is your attempt at showing off the worlds best harbour,
Product: Food and wine no probs all good there as was the service

Service: On the day service was great but trying to change a menu item due to alergy was a nightmare - and the whole booking depended upon it. In addition not sure what if any other drinks we could have had as part of the package. As a person with seafood alergies the nibbles as part of the package was limited. I am not sure this package represented as good a value as other food and matched wine meals we have had. Also matched wine for substituted course was not changed despite a virtually repeated course being provided for the food thus a wasted glass of wine.
Product: Not as good as other food and matched wine I have purchased. Nibbles at the start was limited as I dont eat seafood and salmon looms large on all menus.

Service: A lovely evening, where everyone was very attentive and pleasant. The end of a great birthday
Product: Expensive but special. thanks to all staff.

Service: Bloomin Lovely.
Everyone (Not just us) were made to feel special
Product: The whole experience is World Class

Great personalized experience!

Service: Service was excellent
Product: yes the steak was cooked to my liking and the other two courses were great.

Service: Excellent in all aspects
Product: Excellent food and service

We had a fabulous time aboard Sydney 2000. It was our wedding anniversary. The staff made us very welcome and even organised for our fellow passengers to give us a round of applause. The bar staff shouted us mocktails with sparklers. We also met another couple sitting near us from Tasmania and by the end of the cruise we were organising to visit them for a holiday.

The service was great but not exceptional

We had a long lunch harbour cruise on the MV2000 for our anniversary. the food and service was first -class.

Just a bit rushed to get on and then to get served. Entrée was just warm. But quality of food was excellent. Staff were rushed with the numbers on board but were very pleasant

Service: Fantastic experience for my Father’s 80th birthday. Service and food was excellent.
Product: Food and service was excellent.

Excellent service

Very poor service at start. We had a booking and it seemed when we boarded that they had no prior plan seat and just sat us wherever. We waited 10 minutes for a drink after order placed. My partner complained as to treatment and staff seemed to view it as a joke. The windows were extremely dirty, we paid money to have a window table. The automatic washer was activated and a third through cruise were then able to see through window. The waiter assigned after complaint was very attentive, but unfortunately we had already been subjected to bad service and were disappointed with experiece. We paid $350 for something and the $6 ferry service was equivalent in terms of view and harbour experience. Meal was average. Needless to say will not recommend.

Service: Nice relaxed night, the person serving us was very attentive. If asked would i do it again, the answer would be yes. thanks again for the night.
Product: Dinner was basic but done well, the overall experience was well worth it.

Service: Good:
Lovely personal.
Nice music.
What could be improved:
Ship delayed quite a bit.
If windows were cleaner and light were dimmer, then we could enjoy views more.
Of all food only steak was really good, everything else was not that great.
Coffee is just disaster.

Service: Wonderfully delightful
Product: Delightfully wonderful...

Service: Great hospitality and food! Would have liked a little more time on the upper deck. One of the group tables was very loud.
Product: Food and wine pairings were very good.

Service: Excellent service. A bit shocked we were not told that the coffee was extra - $8 a cup was too high.
Product: Excellent lunch, service and position of table

Service: The service exceeded expectations. Staff were incredibly attentive and polite.

Product: It was recommend by the concierge and I am delighted he did.

Service: Our Waitress was great
Product: It was fine..........,................

Service: Very good experience!
Product: Good service..! I loved it..

Service: Food was 6 courses and definitely enough food. Penfolds wines were lovely and service was well presented and timely. But this is definitely overpriced for what you get. The views are amazing and there's lots of opportunity for photos from the top deck, but the inside of the ship smells a little musty and on a Sat night the ship was about one quarter full - I paid extra to get window seating and it wasn't necessary at all. I took my 67yo mum and she really enjoyed the night and the 3 piece band that covers lots of golden oldie tunes. Would recommend for a large group or party of 60+ years folk - there's a small dance floor for a boogie or a slow dance to Elton John :)
Product: Overpriced and it was unecessary to pay for the extra window charge - I'd expect you'd be able to predict based on yr bookings if this is required. Recommend changing this to a first in best dressed system so customers don't feel ripped off paying for something that they don't need.

Service: Nice food and a pleasant experience, the team had a good time. Thanks!
Product: Service and food were both great.

When I did the online booking it kept reverting back to the current date instead of the planned date. I changed it twice but when I checked, I was booked on a long lunch cruise that day even though the start time had already elapsed. A quick phone call and his was rectified.

Nous avons choisi le Penfold gold Dinner.Le repas était de qualité moyenne (probablement correct dans un contexte anglo-saxon, mais pas au niveau du prix pour les habitudes d'un français...). Intéressant si on veut goûter les vins, sinon, trop cher pour ce que c'est, et donc une balade en bateau pour la ville depuis la baie est suffisante.

We were really looked after. The space was perfect. I would recommend the experience.

We enjoyed our cruise, and the food was great. We would do it again. The long lunch cruise goes over some parts of the harbour twice. We would have preferred travelling further instead.

Service: Good ambience great food
Product: Good ambience great food continue

Service: Not up to expectation
Long Lunch Cruise was very short on cruising the best harbour in the world.
Three times into Darling Harbour and not much further than Elizabeth Bay can hardly be called a SYDNEY HARBOUR CRUISE!!!!
The food was average and the wine prices were expensive.
Product: Not up to scratch when you are trying to impress visitors

Service: We had a great time celebrating my husband's birthday. atmosphere was nice and intimate and the crew was lovely and helpful. the food was nice. I think it could be better. it's a bit dated. the vegetarian main coarse I ordered was not good. and the couple next to us didn't touch it at all (they ordered the same). the ravioli I had for entree was unseasoned. entertainment was also not so great. the views were amazing and beautiful and I would recommend this experience beacause we did have a good time.
Product: good experience. had no problems and got everything in the mail including all the explanations.

Service: The staff were exceptional and five stars to t h e chef!
Product: Excellent. This was a gift which I will remember .

Service: Really good food very clean. Staff terrific!
Product: Good food well presented and staff were so nice

We were a group of 10 relatives looking for somewhere different for lunch around Circular Quay and decided instead to try your "long Lunch" cruise. Apart from our table to be somewhat crowded we all had a great time. Personally, because of my age I found it difficult to traverse the steep stairs onboard. The food was better than expected and enjoyed by all.

Service was excellent as was the food. Wine list could be improved. Do feel that having a top food and premium beverage package that we were charged for tea and coffees! Really.!! Staff felt embarrassed at having to ask for $$$ form tea and coffees. We had spent over $300 per couple on the day.

Service: Great friendly staff.
Product: Good food. Plenty of drinks.

Service: We were put on a corner table and i think forgotten about. We had to ask for drinks, chase coffee, no one came back to ask for extra drinks.
Product: no issues at all with bokking

Service: 한국 직원의 서비스가 매우 만족스럽습니다. 너무 즐거운 크루즈여행이었고 잊지 못 할 여행이 되었습니다.
Product: 고민하지 않고 다음 번 여행때도 이용 할 거에요.

Did not complete my request to wish my parents on their anniversary or add a sparkle to their dessert. Bad!! To state long lunch cruise is deceptive when the lunch is finished well before time only to repeat another round of dropping and picking passengers. What’s the point taking two rounds of the harbour??
Pathetic for it’s worth.

Service: Excellent cruise and the food and service were first class.
Product: Excellent all round and fully recommended

Service: The food was good, service for drinks was a bite slow
Product: My wife enjoyed herself, priceless.

Service: A perfect lunch cruise on valentines day.

Only reason I did not give 5 stars is that I was unable to upgrade to the drinks package once on board (had to be done before).

At the time of booking there was a question of special diatery requierments.
We specified gluten free and lactose free. But unfortunately there was no lactose free and then we sent our feed back with full explanation.

Took too long to get a drink!! Also the meals were too small. Chicken meal for children were the same size as do adults which means the adults are overcharged or the children.

This is a great way to celebrate a birthday.
Our waitress was very attentive and efficient.
Thankyou Captain Cook Cruises!

Service: The service provided was friendly and professional
Product: We bought this at a special rate and thought it was great value for money

Service: The service was good. However, the band on the upper deck was really second rate to the point of almost painful, and we would rate the food as 3/5.
Product: A pretty average dinner experience for the price

Service: Easy boarding, good food,drink and service..definetly would do again

Product: Because it was just perfect!

Service: The best part was meeting Captain Cook at the departure!!
We were greeted in a warm and friendly manner and during the Long Lunch Cruise we were treated with great respect, friendliness, warmth and in a very professional way. The staff were most obliging and we could not fault them. We were celebrating a birthday and the dessert arrived with sparklers and candles and the staff sang Happy Birthday. 10/10
Product: Everything was done professionally and in a warm and caring manner

Service: Easy to book online and prompt receipt of tickets
Product: Food and wine were good. A little rushed though

My wife and I were made feel special from entering the upper deck to enjoy bubbly and canapés, throughout the meal by our considerate and helpful waitress. Meals were great and wine suited each course as promised. The view of the harbour was breathtaking. Highly recommend ⭐️

Service: The catering was excellent with a friendly and experienced staff.
Product: Good value for the money.

The route was too short. On the booking it was shown 3.5 hours but was about 2 hrs.

Very professional and well organised. Food was good too.

Perfect service and experience. Highly motivated and friendly staff. A nice dinner and excellent value for money. Beautiful harbour views from the biggest charter ship in the harbour. If you are looking to do something different this is a great option.

Service: All staff were efficient, polite, and welcoming
Product: I expected more choice. Salmon was over cooked. Too few vegetables. Really nothing special, which is surely what you should be aiming for.

Service: Fantastic staff , we just love the whole lunch experience . We have been on a few now and will be in many more in future .
Product: Excellent value, great day

Staff very pleasant and professional. Boat on time and clean.
Food was very tasty service was not rushed!
As I had overseas visitors they were as impressed as I was.
Another complement on your toilets.( something you probably don't get very often but is part of the service)
As we had two Wedding Anniversaries to celebrate(40 & 50) it was a most enjoyable afternoon and would recommend your cruises.

Too many kids running around uncontrollably, food wasn’t what I expected. The welcome drink was a nice surprise and the views from the cruise where brilliant

Service: We decided to do this dinner for my dads 60th birthday. The whole experience was great and the crew were very attentive. Would recommend to everyone :)
Product: Was definitely 5 star service and food

Service: Excellent
Product: Very tasty and cooked to instructions

Service: Excellent service and made my wife feel very special on her 60th birthday celebration. A fantastic evening which will be long remembered.
Product: Very good value with an excellent meal, good wines, catered for non drinkers with a selection of non alcoholic cocktail style drinks. All of this with the magnificent Sydney Harbour as a backdrop.

Service: Lance was very attentive and helpful .
His understanding of different wine varieties was limited but he just needs experience
Product: I’m a Sydney boy, born and bred.
My brother worked with you guys for years so I know the product well.
I know the harbour, it’s beautiful.
Food was great .
Lance’s service was great .
Wine was disappointing .
I took and paid for myself and 3 guests . I paid for the premium drinks package . I tried every red and two whites .
The Tyrells moon mountain which I buy on special at Dan Murphys for 20 dollars a bottle was the only average / decent quality wine available .
Such a disappointment .
A little embarrassing actually.
We hoped for better.
One glass of the Mawson had to be taken away . Obviously the bottle was open too long.
As I said , everything else was so good. Why let yourselves down with the wine list, especially today when so many people enjoy food and wine matching .
Anyway we will be back , but I hope this aspect improves . I’m happy to help with the wine selection if u ever want help.
Thankyou

Service: The service was lovely and very wonderfulAnd we can really enjoyed the lunch The food was wonderful and amazing
Product: The lunch was fantastic and amazing the cruise could’ve gone out to see a bit further

We did this dinner cruise to show some visiting interstate relatives one of the best harbours in the world.
The ship provides good clean facilities, the food is terrific and the outside areas which are easy to get to allow a nice relaxed alternative viewing experience.
The standout for our party was the amazing friendly and professional service and welcome we received from the ships staff especially our waiter Joey. That's the sort of service that keeps you coming back.
Thank You Captain Cook Cruises.
Chris :)

Fantastic cruise and views. Excellent staff and service. Our meal was exceptional and David's steak was exactly how he ordered it to be cooked. I highly recommend this trip.

Service: Very good lovely experience
Product: Wine, service and quality of food very good, excellent service from Vivian,
Lost a star as canepes were very mean told only one of each totalling 2 per person both seafood, very poor for the amount of cost,
Also food lacked heat and main course could have done with some vegetables.

Service: the service was really good and the food was excellent
Product: food was excellent but seeing as it was a long lunch, was disappointed that coffee & tea was not included in the price

Service was great, staffs were very helpful and friendly, we booked the 3 course long lunch, very classy set up, very relaxing. Food was average thou，but dessert was the highlight, overall we we’re quite happy, it was myself and a friends family from overseas. Would recommend to my other overseas friends if they visit Sydney

Service: Everything was excellent! The private Sirius room was ideal for our family celebration of 14. It was also lovely to stroll out onto the adjacent private deck. All meals on the menu were first class and our waitress was ever so friendly and helpful. Couldn’t fault the service! All contributed to a perfect 80th Birthday celebration and would definitely use Capt Cook again!
Product: All meals excellent for both kids and adults

Great cruise. Staff very attentive and entertainment easy to listen to and entertaining.

Meal was fine, however there really wasn't a gap between the courses

Stewardess who served our meal was very friendly and attentive. Food was good with a reasonably varied menu.

An excellent day on the magnificent Sydney Harbour was experienced by our group of seven, on board the equally magnificent Captain Cook Cruise boat (ship?).
The weather was wonderful, the food was wonderful and the outlook was equally wonderful. Will definitely book again.

Service: The service was excellent. The food was great. We took visitors from the UK on the cruise and they were very impressed. You can't improve on the scenery, but you did show it off very well.

First class service, cuisine and wine. We were made to feel very special.

It was a great experience, good food, amazing views and entertainment! However it went on almost 3hrs, I think it is too 2hrs should be enough.

The dinner was delicious, and the evening was delightful.

Service: Food and service all ok. Found the area hot at times, lack of air con.
Product: Cruise interrupted by returning to dock. Not all on harbour.

Desert is one of the best I have eaten. The ambience is great, but would love it better if the window is changed to clear window instead of tinted.

Service: Great staff an service good harbour cruise
Product: Great cruise an service was tops

Service: ランチクルーズで窓側の席を選びました。別料金がかかりますが、それだけの価値あると思います。お料理も美味しく、窓からの景色も堪能できました。お勧めです！
Product: スタッフのサービスも良く、料理も美味しく、窓側からの景色もとても綺麗でした！

we had a great time

Service: The cruise, the setting and the 3 course meal were all excellent. If I were to be critical it would be the slight evidence of confusion among the staff early in the cruise with their approach to addressing the drinks arrangements, the selection of the menu choice and then the actual bringing to the table. We seemed to sit for a long while with no contact on any front while some other tables were into their second course. There seemed to be a need for someone calling the shots and organising who was to go to which table etc. Another minor point, it is a pity there isn't a lift up to the top deck floor. I am having mobility problems currently and the steep steps presented some slight problems.
Product: I said all I needed to in the previous page

Check in and boarding smooth and we’ll organised. Staff on the ship were courteous and attentive. The 3 course meal was delicious. The ship was clean and well maintained. I would come again and highly recommend it.

Very attentive & friendly service. Three course luncheon was delicious. Cruise ship
was very clean & our table had amazing views.

Service: Meals were serviced at a good pace. Staff were friendly.
Product: I enjoyed the long lunch, however; I was disappointed that my booking for the the buffet lunch was changed due to low numbers. I had specifically booked with Captain Cook Cruises because of the seafood offered at the buffet.

I would definitely spread a positive word about the Captains dinner because the service was fabulous and Olga our server was very charming. The food for every course was well balanced and unique in its taste. This made the whole experience worthwhile.

Was a great experience and relaxing enjoyable evening

Service: Food and Staff were Excellent. Marketing was confusing and ultimately a let-down. In buying the premier tickets, we expected we were going on a 3 hr full harbour cruise with commentary and a nice lunch. Instead we were going for a nice lunch (it was) on the harbour and getting shuttled between stops for the convenience of others, so we got off an hour early. That there was going to be no commentary was not evident until the money had been paid and it was on the receipt. It is all about managing expectations - if we had known what we were going to be in for we would have had lunch somewhere else and bought a 'proper' cruise, with commentary.
Product: Food and service was great, plus the venue.

Service: Very easy to book and very clear.
Product: Food was good, but expected soft drinks were offered, not only tap water.

Service: Great service, friendly staff.
Product: Lovely food, great atmosphere.

Absolutely wondrous. My family had a great time. Best way to see Sydney. Food was generous (and I’m a biggish dude).

Absolutely loved it and the food and service were excellent!

Service: 食物還可以，有一道椰子甜點很好吃，可惜另外兩個人的甜點上錯了。風景非常棒，尤其是好天氣時，吃晚飯後可以好好到頂層去欣賞風景。很難忘的回憶
Product: 整體來說很不錯，但是食物部分可能需要加強，比較可惜。

Service: We chose the Gold Dinner with matching wines and the vibes were perfect for an intimate family dinner celebrating my dad’s birthday and business anniversary. Upon arrival, we were taken up to the top deck where we received champagne and canapés while having the opportunity to take pictures of the harbour bridge and opera house. Once we were seated, the atmosphere was calm, not too loud, with live music and impeccable service. The food was okay but the real selling point of this place was the atmosphere and service, the waitresses and waiters were very professional, explaining each dish and wine, whilst also being helpful and kind. Moreover, many high end restaurants these days are crowded and overly loud but this cruise provided such a pleasant, refined evening for us. We will definitely be doing more of these cruise dinners like these when we have guests over in Sydney as it was such a pleasant evening on the harbour, eating and drinking and listening to the live pianist with more intimacy and privacy than a regular restaurant.
Product: The service from the staff were incredible and the atmosphere was just perfect but some of the dishes (main course meat dish) did not wow us. Nevertheless, it was a really great experience and we were overall incredibly happy with this dining experience.

Lovely helpful staff from start to finish. From the order point on the phone, to meeting and serving our lunch. Couldn't be nicer. Food was great and arrived promptly.

The only comment I would make is to change your menu advertised on the website, as it was the 2017 menu and I thought it hadn't changed, but when the day came it was a bit different which was a good thing.

Service: Excellent service. Boarding was easy and our wait staff were attentive. The meal was very nice.
Product: The meal was delicious and served very timely.

Good service good food friendly staff I recommend to everyone. I will come back again my friends from Melbourne enjoyed thank you ❤️

Service: Great service, good food, spectacular scenery, awesome music. What more could you ask for?
Product: Great range of food, presented well.

Arina was the lady who looked after us all afternoon during our celebration and she did a superb job! She was very friendly, professional and helpful throughout the cruise. We would highly recommend for people to have their celebrations on The Long Lunch private dining area - Sirus Roomwith Captain Cook Cruises!

Service: Excellent service !
Accueil impeccable !
Délicieux plats !
Une très belle expérience !
Product: Excellent menu accord Mets-vins
Service 5 étoiles

Service: Brilliant cruise especially for families. Good commentary and we saw the Dolphins !
Would definitely recommend this cruise
Product: The children s choice for $75 was poor

Service: Very enjoyable evening. Food was great and staff were very attentive.
Product: Food was great! Really enjoyed the meal

Service: Great night
Product: Great evening seeing the sights

Service: Received what we felt like royalty treatment!
Friendly
Welcoming
Constantly checking to see if we were ok for drinks and food
Product: Foodwas amazing and provided at a timely manner

Service: All staff were extremely pleasant and efficient and well presented. Food was good but could have been hotter.
Our waitress, Eesha (sp) was especially efficient and attentive to our requests.
Ship was very well presented and clean.
Our guest was celebrating his 80th birthday and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Product: Cruise was 3 1/2 hours and we thought that the route would include more of Sydney Harbour than it did.
The route was repetitive with time spent at Circular Quay and King Street Wharf. Last 1 1/2 hours a waste. Cruise to Manly, Balmoral, Hunters Hill & Parramatta River would improve experience.
We had no commentary in the top restaurant.

Service: Excellent in every respect & value for money. I would highly recommend
Product: Value for money, great food, wine & service

Service: シドニー湾クルーズは絶景ポイントです。ただし、食事がかなり多量です。バイキング等の工夫があればいいと思います
Product: シートのグレードアップかなりあれば高級なムードになりそうです

Very well organised with good menu. The shop is large and spacious with huge viewing deck. Staff is very helpful and accommodating.

Service: Great service, Bibiana was amazing and looked after us well. Thank you! The entertainment was very good too. Overall great experience!
Product: The meal was just okay but we understand that the chef cooks for over a hundred people.

Service: Absolutely fantastic! Great food, excellent service, awesome day, my third trip.
Product: It is the best way afternoon.

ウエルカムドリンクもあり、とても良かったです。

The best service

5 of us had a fabulous day. Weather wise it was a good day only made better by the excellent food and attention to detail by the staff.
Lovely to just be able to put your feet under the table and be treated with respect.

Service: This is one of the best valued packages, and always a favourite, the food is top notch, (love the salmon) great service from the attentive staff, and the views are a million dollars.
Product: Best value for money tour.

Service: excellent service and food. We thought the cruise was too long for the children, they got bored on the last leg.
Product: Good value for lunch on the harbour

Service: We chose the 4 hour package and charged drinks back to our bill.
Every one commented how good the food is! The young girl looking after us made us feel very welcome. The cruise vessel is amazing what a superb way to view Sydney harbor and its surrounds!
Product: Well priced and worth every dollar paid to see the smiles on the faces of our team!

The service was excellent... Really enjoyed the food ..
The cruise around the harbour was very good well worth the money...

The Service was great, it was well organised and the meal was lovely. Yes we would recommend the cruise to friends.
Boarding process was very disorganised - not explained Seafood lunch same boat, different level.
Also option to stay onboard for extra hour was not conveyed to us or many others. 😌 However we quickly reboarded at Darling Harbour and enjoyed the views. Lunch was very tasty 😋

There was a mix up with our seating and you staff went out of there way to make sure we were happy with the result. They were extremely apologetic for the mix up and made sure we were happy. We enjoyed the experience and would do it again. Value for money was good. Maybe a little rushed at the end would have liked a bit more time to enjoy my coffee before we had to leave.

They made us feel welcome polite nothing was too much

Service: Wait staff Keiiie was fabulous . Food was amazing. Will definitely book any long lunch cruise when we are in Sydney again
Product: Excellent value for money

The service was fantastic, however the price for new year's was too expensive.

Would absolutely recommend this cruise to anyone. The price was reasonable. The food was lovely and the service was great. The assistance we received for the member of our party with mobility issues was also fantastic. Thank you for a memorable afternoon.

Service: Once finally on board the delayed vessel we had a fabulous time and I’d definitely do it again but pre-boarding was a big disappointment.
Vessel did not dock till after 7p but we had been told we would be boarding from 6:30pm. Lack of communication regarding delay, pre-arrival of ship, meant we were all wondering if our Xmas Eve dinner cruise would happen. Lack of seating area during this length of time meant many were tired and grumpy.
No clear queuing area - means people push in towards the front and others become cranky. This could easily be overcome with clear marking in the ground 👍
No communication from the crew (apologies or otherwise) even after ship had docked
Many staff but seemingly no action 😡
When the vessel finally arrived just after 7p boarding was for priority customers first... this lead to confusion as were all tired and hungry. There were so many lovely staff/waiters on board... just send a few down to those waiting and make a brief apology for the delay. Simple. Waiting around even longer was exacerbated by the fuel smell from the engines.
Food, service and entertainment on board were all excellent and dulled the pain of the initial frustrations. We were there to celebrate being married in the Captain Cook Cruise 20yrs ago so this initial start to the evening was a real disappointment and left us wondering if we should have come back. In the end, glad we did.

This was a fantastic cruise, even although the weather was not so good on the day the food was so incredible that no one noticed what it was like outside. Having the private room for our team was well worth the small additional charge. Would highly recommend the Penfolds dinner.

I would definitely come again. We thought the service was excellent and the meal paced very well.

Service: Food exceeded our expectations and service was excellent.
Product: Food exceeded our expectations and service was excellent. Fun experience.

Service: We had our work Xmas party and it was fantastic the service was great and the food was great couldn't have asked for more we will be back.
Product: The food was absolutely fabulous really top grade.

Service: I would highly recommend captain cook cruises to anyone and everyone from booking the cruise with Angelina right through to the night itself the process was flawless
Product: Everyone that I have talked to thought the food not only tasted amazing but loved the idea of being able to decide what they wanted

Very good, maybe because we were on a smaller vessel which had less customers on it.

Easy to book online: seamless admin: cheery staff from ticket collection to wait staff

Service: I made a mistake in booking the cruise (wrong date) but the booking team were very helpful in correcting the error and sending out the corrected information. This was our second cruise with CCC ( first only a few weeks before) and we were delighted with every aspect of the organisation.
Product: A great family experience as we celebrated an early Christmas lunch. Great cruise with quality food and service.

It's OK overall.
But there was no organiser for queue, we bought the Gold Pass but were queuing just like normal, and it was busy btw.

On board services was excellence.

Service: Great food and very friendly service.
Product: Superb view during dinner, the food was delicious and the service very friendly.

Attentive.

Service: The food was very good and the service was excellent. The cruise itself was disappointing as we only had a short cruise before we went back to port to drop off the people who had the seafood buffet and picked up the high tea customers. Consequently the advertised 3 h cruise turned out to be 2 by 75 min cruises interrupted by 30 min at the wharf.
Product: Lunch and service good. Cruise disappointing

Boat was comfortable but VERY noisy. Food was good and staff were friendly, polite and helpful.

What an amazing time, the service was fantastic and the food was delicious

Service: Very good
Boat was on time, food was good, drinks service was good
Staff were pleasant
Product: Everything went how it was supposed to

Service: The food and entertainment were great.
However, we could not understand why we cannot get the meal of our guest who did not turn up, even though we have paid for the meal.

However, we could not understand why we cannot get the meal of our guest who did not turn up, even though we have paid for the meal.

Service: We booked the Sirius private room for a group of 21 and had a very relaxed and enjoyable day. We were well attended throughout the cruise and I couldn't really fault it for the amount we paid. Amenities were all very clean and modern. We did however choose the premium drinks package which everyone had to be on (although about four in our group did not drink alcohol) - and on the day there "was not" Little Creatures beer on the menu as is advertised in the example drink menu on their website. Nor was there a suitable replacement for this. That was the only disappointment.
Product: Food was good although a few of us had meat slightly overcooked (not medium rare).

Service: We chose the window seating and the extra drink list. We were not disappointed. The seating was lovely with an incredible view throughout the cruise. The food was delicious. From the appetizers to the desserts everything arrived piping hot and very tasty. The beef tenderloin was perfectly done and the salmon was exquisite. The wait staff was prompt and always available for a refill. After dinner we went down stairs and danced the rest of the cruise. Although the choice of music may not be for everyone we enjoyed it nonetheless. The four of us had a fabulous time !! Thanks again

Service: Nice trip for older and younger in particular for family with babies or toddler. Your can have together a beautiful trip on the Sydney Harbour with guide and also taste an excellent Australian Long Dinner (Fish or Meat or Vegetarian as you prefer).

Service: Food service, wait staff fantastic and addressed our group requests. Food was great, but appears same menu from one year ago. Desert menu seemed to be the only new variety. However food quality was beautiful.
Product: Food fantastic, this is second year attending. Believe menu was the same entree and main a year ago. Would like something new for next year.

Service: Doing the same circuit twice didn’t make much sense.
Product: Easy to book online even the day before.

Service: Was a really great night. The food was brilliant and the staff were helpful and kept our drinks full
Product: Great value! Really enjoyed the night.

The live band was a bit bland.

But the food was delish and he drinks just kept being poured

Service: The cruise was well organised, table seating was perfect - spaced so each table had ample space - , general atmosphere was quiet enough to talk and our waitress was genuinely lovely. The food options covered many dietary requirements and the food was really delicious. My friends can be hard to please but raved about the food.
The long lunch option is recommended as the shorter option would have meant we would have been rushing our meal. I would definitely recommend this option even to Sydney siders.
Product: Easy to do online and we got a 6 or more discount

Service: They're great! Any Captain Cook cruise complements the end of a hard-working week, a special occasion, a family get-together, a night out with friends, a work function etc.....
Product: Great cuisine & equally stupendous dining/entertainment area.

Our only disappointment was that it was meant to be a Christmas Cruise and there was no decorations or music.
The food was beautiful.
There was limited information on where to get on or off as we were given our drinks bill an hour before we departed.

Very Goog!!!

The Captains Dinner was great way to celebrate Christmas and the end of the year while experiencing Sydney Harbour at its very best.

Service: Easy to book online; great service; high standard of food and beverages.
Product: Food and beverages were a high standard, great service, comfortable surroundings.

Service: Good Afternoon,
I would just like to say that your customer service is above and beyond, from all levels of your staff from the waitresses, admin, chefs, doormen nothing was too much trouble.
Everything about booking this venue has been made trouble free, all of the staff that myself or our guest dealt with were more than competent.



Thanks much appreciated

Kym
Product: everything was perfect, great service and great staff

Service: The overall experience was good but could have been great with the front desk experience from the pier and wharf desk. We had over 35+ guest for long lunch cruise and was placed in the private section of the ship. It was such a beautiful experience. Our staff complimented on the 3 course meal. It was delicious. We had a hiccup with guest seats but they quickly got that rectified and hassle free. They were accommodating.

The only bad experience I had was when the Pier desk only printed 25 onboard passes but I had increased the number of guests since my initial booking. The wharf 1 desk did not believe that I was supplied short and refused to provide the right number of boarding passes even after I have collected all 25 passes from all our staff to physically show her. Pier desk should have counted the passes to match what was on the amended record document. Luckily, I had the print out document. So she asked that I showed it to the staff onboard. Also, I was told that I could arrange the drink package when we get onboard but later asked to do so at the wharf 1 desk before the ship leaves so I had to run and pay this at wharf 1.

It would also be good to know when the desserts are being served. Most of us was on the deck and didnt realise that the dessert plates had been placed on our table.
Apart from that....It was good, and enjoyable experience.
Product: The food was delicious! Our staff compliment on the variety of choices. It was perfect!

Service: Attentive. Didn’t wait long for service even thigh they were very busy
Product: Perfect for our group Christmas celebration. Time to enjoy our meal and still be able to go up on deck

Great night, it went to quick another hour would have been wonderful, thank you

Yes I would recommend your cruise. We had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday. Our French waiter, Benny was fantastic.

Service: Excellent cruise and staff. The meal and drinks package is highly recommended. Thank you for a great day.
Product: Great food and drinks package for the price

Service: Service was great, wine selection was lovely, food was delicious (particularly the flourless orange cake dessert) and the scenery was perfect.

Service: Staff were excellent food was delicious nothing was too much trouble !

The service was amazing. Staff were so lovely and the food was beautiful. Overall a really enjoyable experience.

Great service with quality food and wine.

Service: Excellent food & wines. Professional, courteous service by all staff & especially Bella our waitress for the evening. Only disappointment was that the windows were dirty & not clear to see through.
Product: As before in previous comments

Service: Service was very good. Wagyu beef wasn't wagyu otherwise the meals were very good also
Product: AS MENTIONED BEFORE ON FIRST QUESTION

Service: Our cruise was lovely - food was great and very comfortable to be seated in air conditioned comfort. Would recommend highly
Product: GREAT SERVICE GREAT CREW GREAT EXPERIENCE

Service: Good food good service good value. We have been on the lunch cruise 3 times now and have enjoyed it each time plus we are due to go on again this month with friends for our exmas get together.
Product: No problem we arranged it on the inter net

Service: My wife and I had an amazing experience. The service was outstanding and the food superb. Great job.
Product: Food, Service and Wine - excellent

Service: This day was to be a special occasion for us and all the arrangements were to our real satisfaction.
Original booking was courteously handled; our personal table by the window was well selected by staff and both the meal and table service were professionally presented.
Product: four stars indicate a high standard anyway and as we all know, there is always room for improvement.
Perhaps some commentary on the later stages of the cruise (after lunch) would be appreciated by guests.

We arrived on time, the food was really good quality a nice price of stake the other dishes looked good to, we had the alcohol package, so we could just relax and enjoy, went for a last drink and they said the bar was closed when the cruise still some time left

Service: Excellent service and food. Would recommend this service.
Product: Service and food excellent.

Service: we enjoyed very much our cruise, the waitress that service us, Vivian was great , very helpful with my kids, she made our experience very lovely

the cons,
it was a bit disappointing no having help to take the pram up the stairs to the top level - as we have an infant 5 months old with us and she was asleep

it would make our experience more enjoyable if the cruise offer some extra service for the kids - also a different menu for kids under 10 year old, as my son 5 year old had only one third of the main meal
Product: Delicious food, great seat spot , want to do other cruise to enjoy the top of the boat, as this time was a bit harder as i had my 5 month old baby with us and was a bit windy day

Food is great! The FA waa also nice. Celebrated My Bday at Captain cook cruise
It’s all Memorable.

Service: I think I would take the harbor cruise without the meal. The food was okay but not great. The service was average, but I got tired of the waiter trying to force wine on us instead of bar drinks. For some reason he didn't like the fact that we wanted cocktails. In addition, they don't carry higher end liquor, just the minimum bar grade. On the positive, the boat was half empty so we had plenty of room to move around and enjoy the views from the upper deck. The music was a bit to "loungy", like it was trying to create some Love Boat image, but the singer was actually quite good.
Product: I initially purchased the Penfolds Gold but then realized that they would not accommodate dietary issues. I had to go back and forth with the office to get our cruise changed to the Captains dinner. Instead of a refund for the difference, we were given a bar credit. At the end of the night, we still had a credit which we consumed, but I was not happy with this.

Service: The 3 course meal and service was fantastic however we didn’t get the commentary that the lower 2 decks received which was very disappointing
Product: Disappointed that we missed out on the commentary but the food and service was good

Everything is just perfect. My family loves it and quite enjoy the view. the service is good and food tastes good. well done

Service: Excellent service. We didn't need to ask for anything. We were well looked after.
Product: It was enough time to enjoy our 3 course meal, have a few drinks, a chat and lots of laughs. Well worth every dollar.

Service: Yes . We would recommend Cpt.Cook universally.
Product: Excellent service. Satisfactory seating,

ok

Service: very nice service, friendly stuff , wonderful view, and we love the music!
Product: good food,the stake was very juicy

Helena, who took care of us were awesome! Food, ambience and view was good. It pays to pay for the premium package. Everyone had a good time. Thank you!

Service: The staff were fantastic, the food and wine exceptional and the views breathtaking. The live music, in the background, perfecty set th emood and the scene for a memorable evening.
Product: The food and wine were exceptional!

Service: the signage for the cruise was poor , we waited for for 30 mins and found out that the area for the departure site was different to the site on the invoice.
we missed the boat and have to pay $50 for rebooking,
Cant understand why so poor service of the dining cruise.

i want a refund???

Very warm welcome when we boarded. Excellent waiting staff' great food, would definitely travel again and would highly recommend to family and friends. We have previously travelled on board the Murray Princess and are happy to see the the same high level of service continues. Congratulations to all your staff!

Had a great day out. Lunch lunch always good.

Service: The service was exceptional with the staff doing everything possible to make us feel comfortable and enjoy ourselves. We were never rushed like some other cruises we have had in Sydney harbour.
Product: Excellent and very helpful!!!!!

Service: Bookings were quick and easy. E-mails were concise and informative. Security regarding who I was when picking up the tickets was studious. Pleasant interactions with departure crew. Shipping crew were diligent in safety. Dining staff were friendly and fun to talk to. FOOD WAS DELIGHTFUL. Harbour in all it's splendor is to God's credit. ALL in ALL we would recommend these cruises to everyone. Thanks.
Product: Cost effective. Fun to do. Great way to see Sydney.

Service: Booking office staff great as we were running late , waiter staff were all brand new and being trained so was a little frustrating as they were doing some random stuff and we had to keep calling them over to ask for things . The meal was nice but felt very rushed - it could have easily been spread over the whole cruise rather than crammed into the first hour - especially as they were only 7 other tables on the deck .
Product: Not as good as expected especially with untrained waiters

Service: Service was excellent and food was superb
Product: Very enjoyable evening and great views

Service: The service was fabulous - the food was great - our overseas visitors were blown away with the beautiful harbour views.
Product: Everything was lovely - from the service to the meal - it was exceptional.

Service: Great food and wine!
Product: Great food and wine -beautiful cruise

Service: The service was great me and my family really enjoyed the cruise and the dinner the views out on the deck are amazing couldn’t fault a thing I will definitely return
Product: Well worth the money I would happily pay to do it again

Service: Got well looked after.
Product: Good value. Lovely view!!

Service: Service was poor, not offered tra or coffee at end of meal
Product: Website was difficult to find information

Excellent food, service and overall a fun night

Bella was fantastic

Service: We had a very enjoyable evening. The service was very good, although we had to remind our waitress about one or two things. It wasn't anything major and wasn't really a problem, but it kept me from giving an excellent rating. I would definitely recommend the cruise. In fact, I have been on this cruise six or seven times previously.
Product: The food was very good, the service was good, the entertainment was also very good and of course who can complain about the view. The cruise is definitely value for money.

Service: Everything was great we really enjoyed it
Product: Reasonable we were happy with it just need pure blond beer on board

Service: Was a bit rushed for a long lunch
Product: Expensive but food was okay

Great way to celebrate a Birthday cruising the Harbour. Delicious food, great drinks list and efficient service.

Excellent service and friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the trip on the harbour.

Service: Service & food were fine. Particularly pleased that we could pay for the drink bill individually - those who drink less weren't subsidising those who drink more.
Product: Everyone in our party enjoyed their meal. Beer listing lacked imagination.

Service: Great service, delicious food and wonderful atmosphere. Would recommend to family and friends
Product: Loved the accompaniment of wine and food

Service: Nous avons passés une agréable soirée. A faire.
Product: Très agréable soirée en amoureux.

Service: We had a family reunion dinner with Captain Cook Cruises, including a number of interstate visitors, only to find our guaranteed window seating only had 2 window seats and the table was positioned into the room, despite other tables that were longways across the windows, and was right next to the keyboard player and singer, thus making it impossible to communicate with each other.

As it was the smaller boat,which in itself was disappointing, moving our table was not possible. Very disappointing after highly recommending it after a prior cruise, and felt bad for some of our guests who had spent the money on our recommendation.
Product: The noise at our table was too loud, not the artists fault, but a flaw with the seating arrangements. We were not the only guests to request that they turn their amplifiers down, but it did not happen,

I gave 5 stars just because that's the max I can give and also for the below reasons
1.Hospitality
2.Friendliness
3.Food
4.Well Organized
5.Ambiance
6.Each and every staff and especially people who helped to organize my friend surprise birthday celebration.

Service: Went on the Long Lunch. We had a beautiful day food was good and the Service was excelent.
Product: Food was very nice a good selection. Had the table service. Wine a bit dear but very nice.

Service: We were made to feel very welcome. The service was exceptional. The food was exemplary. It was my sons 40th birthday. We all had a wonderful day out on the harbour.
Product: Please see the above comments.

Service: The vessel was well presented and the staff very courteous. Food was of a good stansard and well presented. We were on the Long Lunch cruise and we were disappointed that their was no commentary . We also paid for the drink package and found that once all course were served the staff seemed to slow down on the table service . We are not big drinkers but I don't think we should have to chase staff to ask for a drink.
Product: Refer above for all my comments.

Service: The one stand out feature of our trip on Wednesday 24th October was the young lady that looked after us that day. We were up on the top deck for a long lunch. As I do not remember the name of the young lady perhaps you could look at your roster and tell her what asset she is to your business. The food was of a very good standard and the cruise itself was very enjoyable. The only criticism we have would be the dessert. We feel that they should serve cream or ice cream with the slices as they are a little dry without anything. Once again our congratulations to the young lass that served us, WELL DONE.

Ron and Anita Mortimer.Excellent
Product: I have covered all our opinions in the last, RATE YOUR CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE.

Service and entertainment,

Service: The crew looked after us excellently on our lunch cruise for our 50th wedding anniversary.
Product: The team looked after special dietary needs very well.
Food was great and well prepared and very tasty.

Service: The wait staff were excellent very helpful and happy,
The food was 5 star, fresh and the meat was cooked perfectly to what we requested.
Product: Very good value for money

The cruise was lovely and the lunch was delicious!
We did a lot of research before selecting the Long Lunch Cruise which was supposed to have been about 3 1/2 hours, but in the end it was only 2 hours long. We could have stayed on board for another loop around the harbour, but that would have taken another two hours and we would have missed our collection time. We should rather have chosen a cruise with a proper commentary.

Service: Great cruise, wonderful staff, beautiful food.
Fantastic views what more could you want.
Product: Fantastic value, recommended.

Excellent lunch - great day out

Service: The entire crew was very attentive. The wait staff took excellent care of us. A real value for the money.
Product: Very well done! Wine pairings were very good.

We had booked our cruise for March. However, my wife suffered an illness just at that time which put her in a wheel-chair. Captain cook Cruises were very helpful in allowing us to postpone our cruise, which we then had two weeks ago. We are very grateful for the assistance we received getting on and off and for the personalised service given to us on the lower deck, by the lovely and friendly staff.

It is a big thing for us, that despite disability we can still enjoy so many things in life.

Thank you so much.

From the Master Chef onboard to All Staff, making our cruise very memorable

Beautiful harbour cruising - even on a rainy day - excellent food, friendly help for a person with mobility problems (2 flights of stairs ! ) wait staff most cordial ,but not too attentive to detail. The perfect place to see our harbour, thank you.

Product: Delicious meal, and service.

From the moment on board our host V was good humoured and hospitable. The cruise was very comfortable, meal very good quality and the drinks flowed making this experience worth every cent. Brilliant Sydney!

Product: The night was really worth it. We did the Gold Penfolds Dinner and the wines were really good and the food was delicious. We were in a dreamland with the live singer - she was wonderful. The whole experience was gorgeous and I would highly recommend it, particularly for a romantic night out.

Fantastic experience cruising the Sydney Harbour! Great food, friendly and helpful staff.

Very enjoyable cruise, helpful and friendly staff. excellent qualiry and value 3 course lunch and wine.

Service: Excellent service provided by the staff. Friendly and approachable. They even waited an additional 5 mins so that one of the group members (who was delayed) was able to make it for the cruise on time.

The only area of improvement would be the choice for vegetarian options. The entrée and dessert was good, however the main was not very enjoyable. Maybe consider other options. Thank you
Product: Easy to book and great discounts provided for large groups

Great service and fantastic food.

Service: Great service. Food was incredible. Boat was immaculate
Product: Dinner was beautiful. Beef tenderloin cooked to perfection. Great range in the menu

I wanted to acknowledge Elmer (our waiter) for his kindness towards my mother who was struggling up the stairs. He came to her assistance unsolicited, demonstrating care and courtesy and helping an old lady feel respected. Thank you Elmer.

good

Great cruise with lovely food and staff.

Service: Overall experience was great, Only improvement would be the selection of spirits available as the whiskey was average.
Product: Price and service was great

It was awesome! The service was also great! Thank you!!!

Excellent service
Really enjoyed the dinner


Would recommend more R & B music

It was a very relaxing afternoon. The food was delicious and l would have expected the same dish in a 5 star restaurant.
Great value! Wonderful views!

Service: The service was wonderful as was the menu and cruise the only reason not 5 stars we had to wait on a very cold wharf for over 30 minutes as the boat was late in picking passengers up
Product: Great staff and menu choices, good value

Service: We enjoyed the service of the staff and the band was very good. The food was good but not excellent, the lamb shanks were very tough and not falling of the bone. They were not enjoyable to eat. A little more attention to detail would have made it a lot better. The photographer seemed like he was just doing a job and was not careful with the photos he was taking. If he had viewed the shots he had taken, he would have realized that they were not worth buying and he would have re taken the photos. we would have purchased more photos if the shots were decent.
Product: I felt the cost was a little high for the time we were on the dinner cruise. I expected the same amount of time as a Saturday evening. Our overseas guests enjoyed the cruise and the views but would have enjoyed a little more time on the harbour.

Service: Pleasant environment and great service with friendly staff. Well done
Product: easy to find and the staff was great on the phone when I asked to upgrade my purchase

Fabulous

Service: The staff were excellent and looked after us for the 3 hours we were on board. Would recommend the trip to everyone.
Product: A few extra vegetables would have been nice.

The harbour was beautiful but the service made us feel like we were on a production line. There was not a lot of warmth or interest in customers other than to feed us and clear away the plates, in our opinion.

Ensure that the waiters don’t get the order wrong as he did with me on more than one occasion. If cooking beef tenderloin to a medium request, that it is cooked right through and not raw in the middle as was mine. I actually fainted and vomited my food because of my inability to digest the raw meat.

Service: La comida ha sido excelente. Hubiese deseado tener más información sobre los beneficios de cada una de las opciones disponibles para el momento de la compra de los boletos.

Aún cuando he quedado muy satisfecho con la experiencia, en general, estoy muy seguro que de haber optado por el almuerzo en la parte superior de la embarcación, hubiese sido una experiencia aún más grata.
Product: Muy buena experiencia, pero hubiese deseado tener mayor información sobre las opciones disponibles al momento de comprar.

Service: Celebrating my mother’s 90th birthday - overall we had a great day, once we were on! The info on the website was a bit hard to follow and finding the actual wharf where the boat left could have been better communicated. We only just made it onto the boat in time.
Product: Celebrating my mother’s 90th birthday - overall we had a great day. Could have had a really awesome day!.

Excellent delicious food promptly delivered.
Very comfortable dining setting with great views from every angle.

Excellent, beautful views, great service and a fun night!

Service: The staff were very attentive without being intrusive. We could not fault our Long Lunch cruise with Captain Cook Cruises. From the food to the service it was a most enjoyable day. Thank you.
Product: It's great value for money.

They dinner was good but the instructions were leaving and the woman I spoke to on the phone and the woman at the booth were quite rude.

The food and wine was excellent. I thought it was especially marketed towards tourists but I should have expected it. Overall a great night

Service: Excellent 👍👍👍

Service and ambiance was excellent

According to my passengers the cruise, meals and service could not be faulted, Well Done . Regards Washington Vinoles Mobile Manager Itravel

A good evening sailing around the harbour, we boarded at Darling Harbour to find people that had boarded at Circular Quay already eating their meals. Staff seemed rushed to get passengers to choose their food from the menu, service was also haphazard, we were nearly served our mains before our starters, had to ask for butter for our rolls.
Attention to detail and more of a structured approach would be great, I appreciate that there were quite a few aboard but not overbooked by any means.
Food was fine as again catering for a lot of people.

Service: Our waitress, Laksmi, was very professional and so approachable. Her manners were impeccable. She made us feel at home and very special.
Product: The food presentation was great and the wine selection a perfect accompaniment.

Service: We paid $50 to have window seats, then the people on the next table asked to move to a window seat, sure enough they got moved to the table just behind us for $0. So I guess don’t pay $50 just take the chance and see if you can be moved.
Product: We paid $50 for window seats, when there was no need to all you need to do is asked to be moved.

Service: Very good
Product: I appreciated the fact that due to my wife being unable to join the Cruise, the cost of her ticket was transferred to the Bar Tab. A splendid outcome.

Service: The visual experience was spectacular but the dining experience was underwhelming.The medium rare steak was overdone and quite dry.I commented about this to the lady who served us but there was no offer to rectify the situation.Her English was poor and she may not have understood.Cooking a steak is not rocket science and I am surprised that the task was beyond the so called chef.I thought that a coffee would be supplied in the cost of the meal.It was not.I received an instant coffee for $4.00.That's right...an instant coffee!If I was rating this on the food alone it would probably rate 1.5 stars.
Product: I already did.To summarise the medium rare steak was closer to well done and was dry and the coffee was an extra charge when it arrived was intant coffee not brewed.Also all staf should be able to communicate well in English.

My husband and I enjoyed a Captain's Dinner cruise in Sydney. We had amazing evening. Live music and food were great, staff was very friendly, exceptional service. I would defiantly recommend this cruise. I also recommend to pay extra for a guaranteed window seating, it worth is.

Service: Excellent night! Food was great and Edward was our amazing attendant, can't speak highly enough of him. Thanks!
Product: Excellent food, great wine, lovely atmosphere.

Service: Service was excellent, also the singer and the choice of music was the best.
Product: Service was excellent, also the singer and the choice of music was the best

Dinner Cruise (9/9/18): We had an amazing time, and want to in particular thank our waitress Cecelia. A few waitresses attended our table and all were great, but it seemed that Cecelia was our designated waitress and she was our main contact with the wait team. It was my mother’s 65th birthday and the whole crew (including the musicians) made it special, with the wait staff telling the band to sing happy birthday, and co-ordinating it with the kitchen to have a cake and candle brought out at the same time. I realise that this is probably standard operating procedure, but it was executed perfectly, and there were also a whole host of smaller details too numerous to catalogue that just made the night perfect. The drinks came to our table quickly, our questions were answered with a smile, and everything was just smooth and relaxed and the ambiance created by the staff was spot on. Thanks for a great night.

Very good and with an excellent hostess ( V*** from Indonesia) made it a very enjoyable evening

Service: 훌륭한 서빙과 음식은 좋았으나 충분한 설명과 선택권이 없는 사진촬영과 사진구매는 당황스러웠어요
Product: 허니문의 환상적인 이벤트로써 손색이 없었어요.

Product: The food was to die for. Thank u very much captain cook Cruises

The quality of the food was excellent as was the service. Very happy with the cruise.

Service: We bought the lunchtime cruise for Louise and Marty as a special gift for them, visiting from Adelaide for their birthdays. They were overwhelmed with the excellent service they received from all the friendly staff on board. We wanted to do something special for them considering they'd never been on a harbour cruise in Sydney before and the experience was everything we could have hoped for. They also appreciated the insights provided by the commentary and felt it was a great addition to their experience. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a great way to experience the beauty that Sydney has to offer.
Product: Decent value, our parents really enjoyed the food and remarked on the great quality of each course.

Best best best. Food has really improved and its better than before. The service was greaaaaat.

Service: Service was reasonable although slow to renew drinks, possibly because we were on a pre-paid drinks package.
Product: The photos on your website display tables with white table linen and I thought the presentation of the table was much like a coffee shop or cafe rather than a premium dining experience that was advertised on the web page. It was overpriced for the food that was served. The pumpkin/sweet potato entree was quite plain with no flavour as was the beef noodle entree. The beef main was lovely, however the lamb shanks tasted so much like bottled mixed herbs that it was overpowering and my guest didn't eat it any of it. The dessert was coffee shop standard. The service was reasonable although service of drinks was slow (most likely because we were on a pre-paid bar package). We bought the premium drinks package and thought it included spirits - the website was a little confusing in that regard - that's the only reason we chose premium was because we thought it included spirits. So our drinks package really didn't cover the drinks we received as we ended up buying spirits because one guest has an allergy to wine. A few glasses of wine each for the rest of our party, I thought was overly expensive for the price of that package as well. The ladies toilets were dirty, with vomit in one toilet and no toilet paper in two of the three cubicles and the floor and area just looked dirty with water and toilet paper around the place on the floor. The views were amazing, but I must say I wish I had of chosen another cruise option. I feel it was advertised as a luxurious experience, which it was not.

Service was poor. Had to ask for bread rolls and main course. We disembarked the boat an hour earlier as the experience was not enjoyable due to poor service.

Service: Nice meal, nice views, nice trip
Product: Nice meal. Nice location.

Service: Fabulous night. Delicious food and excellent service.
Product: Everything was excellent and well above expectations.

Service: Was not on the ship scheduled. Cruise was late, ship was cold, food not very good. We were taken to a different dock than the original even though we were told by staff it was the same. Left us stranded. We had to find a taxi to take us to our hotel.
Product: It was really really not good since you want more characters

Service: We had a lovely relaxing day cruising the harbour with excellent service and fabulous food when we purchased the long lunch option from the Captain Cook cruise website. Highly recommend!
Product: Lovely menu choices and perfectly presented

Service: From my ticket purchase to our greeting on boarding to the beautiful food and friendly staff . It was an amazing afternoon.
Product: I did a phone booking with immediate email acknowledgment.
I also receive a very quick response to a special request .

Service: We have been on many dinner cruises around the world and this has to be amongst the best, if not the best.

The food is sublime, it would not be out of place in a high quality restaurant.

The waiter was friendly and attentive, without being in your face.

The vessel is well appointed and the views stunning.

I would thoroughly recommend this dinner cruise
Product: Great food, great atmosphere brilliant staff.

Absolutely nothing to fault at all.

Lovely staff and fillet was tender and cooked to perfection
